This movie is at least 30 years old. The lady looks like Anne Archer. The man (main player) has brown hair and he has a mustache. It begins with the Sheik coming to America on a business trip. He meets this American lady and after several dates they have an affair. She becomes pregnant and after giving birth to a son, he marries her. Their love is very special. He takes her to his country and she tries to become accustomed to his culture. She finds out that he is married and that he has an older daughter that is involved in new movements (revolutions) going on in his country. He explains that his other wife can not have other children and that he does not love her. His daughter also feels neglected since her father does not really acknowledge her since she was not a son.

This creates problems in their marriage that goes on for a few years. The American women flees back to America (I think). Because the Sheik is very important, a group kidnaps his American wife and son. I think the group takes them back to his country. The Sheik's daughter, through out this time, softens toward her little half-brother and tries to help rescue them.

In the end the Sheik comes to the rescue of his wife, son and daughter. They are reunited as a family. This movie played several times over about three years when it first came out. Any help would be appreciated.
