Shiva Rose the new rising Persian American Hollywood star!

Wait till you see Shiva Rose's astonishing performance as Layla in David & Layla! Today this quote in Chicago Tribune on the occasion of  David & Layla premiering at Gene Siskel Film Center on Friday Feb 22:

"Rose boasts classic beauty, stoic dignity and an ability to pull off her character's (Layla) rare but striking angry outbursts."

As recently reported at Iranian.com, Shiva Rose is currently the most consistently praised Iranian & Middle Eastern actress working in Hollywood.

'Excellent' praise in over 20 reviews including The Washington Post, The Variety,..:

"Excellent", "Star-making", "Breakthrough Performance", "Excels", "Winningly Charismatic',  Effortlessly Sexy", "Gracefully Luminous", "boasts classic beauty, stoic dignity"...

Why was she not nominated for an Oscar? Why was not David & Layla not nominated for any Academey Awards or even Golden Globe Awards?

Could it be, unlike Persepolis, David & Layla dares to refer to Ariel Sharon's destruction of Lebanon, Israel's and Henry Kissinger's past roles in the bloody mess in our beloved Middle East?

Or, could it be the 'equality' in the Jewish Muslim theme of David & Layla? And our Rose (Layla) manages to educate a Jewish man about our Iraniandiverse cultures... 

And for  the fist-time ever on screen, a Muslim woman get a Jew to convert!

She is daughter of Parviz Gharib Afshar

and ex-wife of Dylan Macdermott
