Los Angeles-based television and radio talk show host David Diaan makes his directorial debut with the nonpolitical documentary Iran is My Home. Shot all around Iran in 2000, the film is a video diary of Diaan's visit to his homeland after a 20-year absence. He wanders around parks, hotels, and streets in Tehran, Isfahan, and the coast of the Caspian Sea. Personal subjects include his mother, fiancée Sogol, and random people on the street. Iran Is My Home was shown at the 2003 IFP Los Angeles Film Festival. ~ Andrea LeVasseur, All Movie Guide

I have been trying to research this because in the back of my mind, I thought the Shah of Iran wasn't Muslim. I can't seem to find it anywhere. I know he was friends with the US, and his son now wants to take over that country, but I am wondering if there would be a religious conflict. |

Since the UN and European countries have been trying for years to get Iran to stop their nuclear weapons program, is it true that more of the same is an exercise in futility? Maybe they just didn't use the right words with Ahmadinejad, Iran's crazy president? Is the childish hope that the right type of coaxing will get Iran to concede that they were wrong all along? And is this naive silliness just the "foolish delusion" Bush said to the Israeli Knesset today? |
