Lawrence of Arabia

[Re9syr]

has england betrayed lawrence, or did lawrence know what england wanted to do in the arab lands ?

[Wolfen443]

@Re9syr, I think it happened both ways. Precisely for taht reason he tried to get the Arab tribes t6o work together after they defeated the Turks, he knew that change was hard to accept in the Desert. So, the Arabs became Giants thanks to Black Gold under the Desert, but remained Little, Divided People in their Hearts.

[Re9syr]

@Wolfen443 indeed, the revolutions gave me hope, but still i doubt that unity will come, we ignore important things, and give attention to stupid things

obi wun!?

[rmtmiller]

I've seen this film a few times and still don't understand some parts.

[Phnoogie]

one of the greatest men in history....L-awrence

[landialiha]

yep spaniards must be very excited for this line about cordoba

[GiantPetRat]

"But you know, Lieutenant, in the Arab city of Cordoba were two miles of public lighting in the streets when London was a village?"

"Yes. You were great."

"Nine centuries ago."

"Time to be great again, my lord."

I was completely sold by this film by the time this scene came. They're chemistry together is so good. I love King Faisal- he has this air about him like he knows everything, and you can't hide anything from him.

omg obi-wan kenobi was the king of iraq!

[elshahedkarim]

We are the miracle...just keep working

[bookkeeper57]

Best character actor that ever lived. He is the image of news photos of the real Prince Faisal; who was English educated and very subtle.

I should read the "seven pillars of wisdom"

[navigator46]

ya u should do

[rockerduff1231]

Isnt it T.E Lawrence? Thomas Edward Lawrence? You put T.H.

[gooder8888]

Well spotted. And corrected. Thanks!

Prince Feisal used the Force on Lawrence, who as played by Peter O"Toole DOES look like Luke Skywalker, only, he's mich taller.

Feisal: You will take the port of Aqaba for us.

Lawrence: I will take the port of Aqaba for you.

If Sir Alec heard you say that, he'd jump off of a roof. He hated his role as Obi-Wan and he hated Star Wars.

[Milordvega]

Definitely.

[bringsan90]

Very nice clip of my favorite movie.

[eebumssuk]

I like how Alec Guinness uses that same foreboding tone of voice that he used as Obi-wan. "In the ninth century, the Jedi Knights brought peace, order, and public lighting to Cordoba. But then came the dark days.. of the Empire."

englishman !

The Arabs are in the ascendency now, with their megabillions from oil.

[radio187]

But they're squandering it all. They're enriching themselves, the princes, instead of building societies of educated, enterprising, innovative people. Einstein said creativity is more important than knowledge, and sharia law is not the father of creativity.

[tumadoireacht]

yes our addiction to oil has had some strange consequences- in those places like texas and arabia where it has generated great wealth, the wealth has hindered people having to adapt including clinging to intolerant forms of religion

[radio187]

You've never been to Texas...

[Cameljockey213]

And you have never been to Saudi Arabia.

[00retro]

Great clip from a great film.
