Lawrence of Arabia - officers' bar scene

[GiantPetRat]

The way Farraj cries out Daud's name is so heartbreaking. I love that the film portrays the boys as real people.

[yippitydodah]

mustapher and I want two glases off lemonade, with ice.

We took Acabah.

[yippitydodah]

he likes your lemonade.

Jesus, my sides are bursting.

[yippitydodah]

Are you off your head? Oddly enough. I am not. :)))))))

[yippitydodah]

where the hell are you going to mustapher? : ))))

[yippitydodah]

Lawrence! What the devil do you look like?

[yippitydodah]

what does he look like?

classic clip

[yippitydodah]

we have taken Akabar, while you english numnuts chat, public school like.

[vidaliadear]

@yippitydodah LOL hah Are you me or what XD When I was watching the bit where he leaves, I was saying, "Yeah, what did you do today? You had breakfast, I took Aqaba - I got all traumatized, but I still did it, didn't I?"

[yippitydodah]

@vidaliadear

General Aranbly was supping port, while Lawrence was out doing true things.

[yippitydodah]

@vidaliadear

Lawrence, being arrested on enterering the officers mess in Alexandria, and trying to escape, en-fucking-joy,

watch?v=32FikbHoz3o

[yippitydodah]

@vidaliadear

but you will have to get into some trousers too

O-O

[Sasse90]

You takin' im in sir?

[GiantPetRat]

"We've taken Aqaba."

"Taken Aqaba, who has?"

"We have. Our side in this war has. The "wogs" have. We have. He likes your lemonade."

Every time I hear that line, my fist shoots into the air. Just... awesome.

[MrLamotta86]

what great acting by peter o'toole, the way he's trembling, everything.. a scene that still holds up

[PenguinInc]

I like the idea of a racist and homosexual war hero. I also like the idea of a fantastic film without equal about a racist and homosexual war hero. There will never be a movie like this ever again, because there cannot be. We won't allow greatness like this ever again. . . which is a sort of sadness that I don't have a name for.

[Escondido123]

The best scene... Or one out or 100 best scenes in Lawrence of Arabia. Read the book by T. E. Lawrence "Seven Pillars Of Wisdom"

[deveraux32]

Don't forget Jack Gwillim is also in this scene

[GiantPetRat]

I love Lawrence's character. Completely "I'll do whatever the hell I want to".

[tcereza96]

Awesome movie the music's nice too =]

[gwtwlover]

He got his lemonade and he drank it too....

[joecoyote42]

Brilliant

[JollyRodders]

Good old Lawrence. Predecessor of the LRDC & then the SAS....Long before they were thought of.

The death of Lawrence indirectly led to the introduction of motor cycle helmets for army riders via a brain surgeon called Sir Hugh William Bell Cairns who attended Lawrence after his crash.

[Tron9222]

2 people did not like his lemonade

[majapahitize50]

@Tron9222 Lolol typical YouTube comment...

[Tron9222]

@majapahitize50 except nothing less

[deveraux32]

Jack gwillim from (Jason and the Argonauts and Clash of the Titans Fame) is also in this scene playing the officer who gets into with Lawrence

[shire2005]

Incredible film.

[daf867]

no respect for special forces..

[caytiryakisi28]

great scene

[SuperKLC]

worst movie ever made. why ask for lemonade when it's easier to get water.

[QuantumFart2]

When I was a kid, I always wondered how they got the knife out of the sheath, because i thought it was all curved like the sheath. This movie finally cleared that up for me.

[shaman683]

Best movie ever made. We lack the spine to equal it anymore.

[GreenGearMood]

Lemonade.

With ice.

A bed.

With sheets.

[75goodies]

@GreenGearMood class. 

He likes your lemonade.

[Defjams1991]

go ahead and get ur drink!!

[mudbonehancock]

Gregory Peck won the Oscar for To Kill a Mockingbird this year 1962

[actonbath]

Did we know...

Anthony Quayle @ 2:32 WW2 Vet. British SOE (known as MI6 now) He ran spies and sabateurs in enemy held land. SOE/MI6 the "James Bond" guys. HIs mission files are still classified as TOP SECRET today.

Guy was like Mr. Lawrence.

[moondough]

O'Toole not winning the Oscar for this performance remains one of the great absurdities (or stupidities) in Hollywood history. And that's saying something, innit?

[luciusinfabula]

@moondough

Indeed, my friend. Indeed.

[nickhubbardtube]

'' We've taken Akaba.... we have... the wogs have.. our side in this war have...''

[cawoxasan]

why are they hating on the arab and lawrence by saying get out.. is it racims.. and who is the arab kid...

[Boundless0]

I suggest watching the movie. It's definitely worth it, and all your questions will be answered.

[fgdilly]

@cawoxasan sure it is racism - British officers bars were for British officers only, Lawrence is one so can enter once he's reckognised but the Arab kid is not welcome. They finally let him in because of Lawrence's protection. As for who he is - Lawrence's underage male lover. All have understood it, but no one spells it out - British manners, I guess.

[millard27]

@fgdilly Not racism, just the time it was set.

[littlemaker2]

My favoutire scene!

[EvangelineSky]

"Two large glasses of lemonade"... lol.

[vwaxman]

"He likes your lemonade."

[EvangelineSky]

Hilariously random!

*comes out of desert all cryptically*

"give me...."

"Water?"

"No you git... lemonade."  >_>

I love Lawrence! ^_^

[alzarianfox]

Lawrence is amazing :D

[MARTINKUK1]

Filmed in Sevilla, Spain...

[anunezrel]

OMG thta's not Arabia that's in seville, Spain. I went there is called "plaza de España".

[0neofthem]

lawrence was a faggot ass homo.

[EvangelineSky]

There something wrong with that?

[6079smythw]

"No that's not true. We killed some, too many really. I'll manage it better next time."

I Love this movie ........what more can i say??

[mtp0202]

Was that young boy his boyfriend??? It has been proven LOA had a a thing for young men. something he picked up from the British schools and got a taste for it.

[AllenbysEyes]

No such thing has been "proven". It's speculation by Lawrence's less-than-flattering biographers - Richard Aldington, Michael Asher, Desmond Stewart - that Terrence Rattigan and then David Lean picked up on and sensationalized.

[blowtorchacurlyfry1]

what astounding acting, gets me every time.

[artiranmor]

This is truely one of the greatest scenes in cinema!!!!

[007cannonball]

Amazing how different he looked when he was young.

[bambumbang]

the way how british are talkin, hilarious

[lacrosseboy616]

"He likes your lemonade."

O'Toole is a god.

[lizgannon]

lol!

[egern22]

O'Toole has NEVER won an Oscar (well - Honorary Award. But that does not make up for this great injustice).

[alfriendo2008]

Strange that O'Toole never won the Oscar for this back in 1962!

In film mags such as "Entertainment Weekly" and "Premiere" his performance is described as the most brilliant of all time!

[Aussiemarco]

Maybe it was political? Think of what was happening in 1963 (when the voting for this film's Oscars happened) and the Equal Rights movement at that time. Gregory Peck's part in 'Mockingbird' was one of those beacons leading the fight for black equal rights.

[alfriendo2008]

A pertinent point indeed!

[FOUADMKHAN]

lol at "we're not particular."

[makithecat]

Best film ever...saw it at ABC in Leeds and joined RAF one month later. Four years later saw Aden and Damascus...

Peck beat O'Toole for Oscar that year - To Kill a Mockingbird - but this is still the best, stand out, screen performance I have EVER seen. Shame he went to Hollywood and let them drag him down.

Thanks for sharing!!!!!!!!!!!!

[NeroBlack2200]

Listen to his voice when he's talking to Allenby. I'd love to know how you fabricate that kind of performance. It's utterly flawless.

[whilemggw]

He likes your lemonade...

[75goodies]

'We want two glasses of lemonade,' dig it

[dutchray]

The place looks very much like Plaza de España in Sevilla, Spain.

[75goodies]

yeh, the film was made in Spain, well spotted

[a0e0roberts]

Imshi!

[Aussiemarco]

The only large-scale epic movie where there are no women - only the sight of a few hands in a couple of scenes. So brave of David Lean to make this movie all male in what was in reality an all-male world (ie the British and Arab armies c.1914 to 1918.) There is NO WAY this movie would be made today - such is how far movies have gone off the rails today.

[dglekjofg]

Yes, all male and no women... even though with his amazingly delicate beauty (and soul)here Peter O'Toole could actually play both! :)

You know, when the film was released, playwriter Noel Coward said that if O'Toole had been any prettier, the movie would have been renamed "Florence of Arabia".

[75goodies]

@Aussiemarco I still like the film even though there are no women in it. A lot of women helped to make it behind the scenes.

[0007Laranja0007]

@Aussiemarco I agree with you, and i am a girl! This movie is awsome with NO GIRLS on it!

[AnnoyingTypoSyndrome]

@Aussiemarco:

Yes, you're right - in fact, today, they would probably stick a few homosexuals in, as well as some scantily dressed american women !!

[030karen030]

@Aussiemarco

Look at "Master & Commander". No women there either (except one scene; but no dialogue).

[rashidkarim1234]

Even today also these arabs have allied with U.S.A to fight against Islam.

[MrGeneKim]

Bartender: "This is a bar for British officers!" Lawrence: "That's all right, we're not particular." LOL!

[Losrandiro]

Cheers for trying for humanity.

[farmerinchico]

"We killed some, too many really, I'll manage it better next time."

[gouvyrock]

british arrogance in centuries!!!!!!!!!! fuck the upper snobs shitty scumbags from hell!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[lightoffire1]

fuck the british

[angryniggah]

fuck you, lightoffire 1.

[masterdeviance1985]

fuck you, NIGGA

[angryniggah]

hey, c'mon...let's not get racial.

[BetterInRed]

"he likes your lemonade"

[grae707]

"Good god the man's wog"

[genyouwin]

I love Lawrence's derogatory glance when told to 'get into some trousers'.

The essence of British colonialism in one glance. Magic!

[genyouwin]

"They're still there, but they have no boots."

Bravo, Robert Bolt. Wonderful script!

[Kwarner722]

Here, You!  And where the hell do you think you're going Mustafa?

[politirel]

Mustafa wash!

[Anchallete]

"He likes your limonade"

"Call of your men"

...and when he's playing around with his new outfit and quinn asks what he's doing "...as you see..."

I love those punches... : )

[thegreymouser]

"It's for *him*!"

[starstyx]

This is one of the most powerful moments in movie history.
