Featured reviews
I watched this movie when it first came out but then I thought I'd lost the DVD, I just recently found it again and I have watched it at least twenty times since. I am a huge advocate of interracial dating and this movie just entices me to the max. I am not from Detroit, nor have I traveled there, but I would love to go one day and sight-see. I would definitely recommend this movie.
I love the end of the movie, because, me being a hopeless romantic, I feel like maybe I will have the same luck in an interracial relationship.
I just want to thank Marc Cayce for producing, writing and directing this film...it was just what I needed.

Forbidden Fruits is a dynamic urban love story that reveals the interplay and complexities of cultural traditions, family values and personal beliefs. The film directly explores multicultural relationships, stereotypes and the human emotion - Love. Filmed in Detroit city Forbidden Fruits has unique and charismatic scenery.
I highly recommend this film because it encourages dialogue and discussion. Examining real life experiences of racial generalizations and preconceived notions Forbidden Fruits is highly dramatic and informative.

I just rented this movie on DVD and I really enjoyed it. I'm from Detroit so I could be a little bias. However, I enjoyed seeing Detroit and the other suburbs photographed so beautifully. I found the explanation of how the Chaldeans, Arabs, and Muslems migrated to Detroit very informative. The cast was not only talented but very easy on the eyes.
The most interesting and comedic part of the DVD had to be in the special features section listening to the directors commentary. No offense, but it really seemed like Marc Cayce screwed over a lot of people to get this independent film made.
Oh yeah, one more thing.....The soundtrack for this film was off the chain! I would purchase it today if I could.

Purchase, A Must
This movie is a much purchase. This movie talks about issues that are tabu in our communities among blacks and Arabs such as interacial relationships. The movie should be watched in our homes in order to bring dialog to the things that are never thought of or mentioned, but does occur and is often wondered. I think this is an excellent movie. I love to see movies were racism is addressed. I really like how this movie touches issues on interracial couples and dating outside your religion. There are a few things I'll give to this movie. I thought it was on point when it showed males of color opining that they could date interracially, but not their sisters. Others said, "It's okay to do that, so long as it isn't one of my family members." There is also an emphasis on, "Be civil to them, but don't take them home!" These are all dynamics that are common in the US, for those who are honest enough to admit it. I think this movie is well worth the buy.
