Not Without My Daughter description The Arab anti-defamation leagues understandably had a field day with this one. Sally Field plays Betty Mahmoody, an American who marries an Iranian (Alfred Molina) and has a child. They go back to Iran for a visit and, to her horror, he tells her he's decided to stay there. If she wants to leave, she must leave her daughter behind. If she stays, Betty must live in a culture vastly different and, she believes, very dangerous. Part thriller, part culture clash, the film certainly takes advantage of Americans' perceptions of Iran after the unrest of the '70s and early '80s. Molina is truly despicable as the husband, while Field projects a lot of overheated anguish as Betty tries to figure out a way to escape the country with her daughter. Overheated, in fact, is the word for the whole melodrama. --Marshall Fine |

| When I lent my VHS copy to an actor, I expected it to be returned. It was not. This movie, based on a real-life incident, is probably the most frightening movie I had seen in years. A woman is made to believe she is going on vacation to Iran, and when the family arrives, she finds out that this isn't true. And so a way to smuggle herself and her little girl
out of the country and back home is the main story. It is an incredible story and journey Betty Mahmoody made, and Sally Field did a wonderful job in the role! (Alfred Molina was pretty good, also!) Buy the DVD...NOT WITHOUT MY DAUGHTER is an inspiring story of one woman's courage to leave her husband forever fighting against odds that tell her she is trapped in a foreign country and will never leave without her daughter.
