  • Loving Leah is a television movie that debuted on the CBS television network as a Hallmark Hall of Fame movie on January 25, 2009. The film is directed by Jeff Bleckner and stars Adam Kaufman as an unobservant Jewish bachelor who feels compelled to marry his observant rabbi brother's widow, Lauren Ambrose, to honor him via the ancient Jewish custom of yibbum. Loving Leah began as a play by Pnenah Goldstein and was brought to Hallmark by Ricki Lake, who also appears in a minor role in the film. Goldstein also wrote the screenplay and "saw it in a way like Moonstruck or Crossing Delancey. I didn't see it as a Jewish story. It's a love story, and for a love story you have to have a great hook that brings them together. And the hook in this case was that ancient Jewish law."
