The Mad Adventures of Rabbi Jacob

In this riot of frantic disguises and mistaken identities, Victor Pivert, a blustering, bigoted French factory owner, finds himself taken hostage by Slimane, an Arab rebel leader. The two dress up as rabbis as they try to elude not only assasins from Slimane's country, but also the police, who think Pivert is a murderer. Pivert ends up posing as Rabbi Jacob, a beloved figure who's returned to France for his first visit after 30 years in the United States. Adding to the confusion are Pivert's dentist-wife, who thinks her husband is leaving her for another woman, their daughter, who's about to get married, and a Parisian neighborhood filled with people eager to celebrate the return of Rabbi Jacob.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

This film shows the amazing story of Ilan Ramon, his life, his service in the Israeli Defence Forces and in the NASA astronaut program. This film shows how dedication and hard work pay off. It shows the courage of the families of the astronauts before lift off and after the devastating explosion of the shuttle Columbia. The families stuck together and helped each other deal with the tragedy. The families of the Astronauts on board the Columbia are brave people. Ilan Ramon was proud of being an Israeli and a Jew, he takes a special Torah Scroll into space with him. He brings the story of Jewish strength and perseverance to the world. This is film not to be missed!
