    My favorite movie (next to Lion in Winter) and the finest film and score ever produced by the superb David Lean with The Great Peter O'Toole and the best cast ever assembled in the world. I saw it at the LA Fox in 61 when I was 6, and again at 32 with the added scenes at 34 wks' with child. God bless Peter O'Toole, the last of our great Irish actors (aye, Irish lass) agus beannacht liat Dia! They don't make films like this anymore. Brilliant, exciting, perfection, amazing. Thank you, Mr. O'T!

    Have you noticed when people talk about this movie they don't talk about a specific scene they liked unlike other novies. They speak about it a whole, as an experience, as if they had been on journey and had now seen the desert, the Arabs, the campaign and met the people. It's an extraordinary film and every moment is a masterpiece of acting and directing.

      Of course bedouin are highly romanticized here, as they are in almost every work of fiction. But the same you can claim about english, french, polish, tibetan, japanese, somalis etc. That's why this is a movie, not a documentary.

    I was so fortunate to meet Anthony Quinn back in the 90s. I did a clay bust of Mr, Quinn, in a show I did at Ceasars, Las Vegas.. at a gallery in the Forum. I was demoing a clay there and got tired of the one I was working on... I saw posters of Anthony Quinn, on the wall of the gallery, promoting a one man show he was going to do in September that year.. I was there in August.
    I put aside my demo and started a bust of Mr. Quinn, there in the gallery. It really was starting to look like him. His agent was there, unbeknowst to me, and she was watching me work on the clay.. After she left, the gallery owner asked me to get this clay, cast into bronze at the foundry I work with.. He told me the agent loved what I'd done and they wanted to presnet the finished bronze to Mr Quinn at his show.
    I got the foundry to speed the casting process of the clay to bronze.. and it was shipped to the gallery in time for Quinn's show. They flew me back down to Vegas so I could present him with his bronze bust at a banquett in his honor.. What an amazing experience.. I presented the bronze to Quinn and he was so moved, he hugged me... I'll never ever forget that.. EVER..

    Peter O'Toole little over the top which later became his signature style. Anthony Quinn's performance is simply unforgettable. He practically wears the role to then own it completely to himself. Even the real Auda might not have been this dashing and swaggering. One of the finest and probably most underrated performances in cinema history.

    Peter O'Toole improvised the entire scene where he examines his new outfit. David Lean told him to do whatever he felt was natural. He realized that anyone in that situation would want to see what they looked like, so he used his dagger as the only method of seeing his reflection, and then noticed that the robes looked like wings in his shadow, so he played with that for a while. After the scene was finished, he overheard Lean mutter under his breath, "Clever boy."

    Actually Auda quickly became one of Lawrence's most staunch supporters (instead of just a greedy war lord) and became quite the diplomat. Auda's family sued when the film came out because they were so upset about how the film had portrayed Auda. from an artistic perspective, however, the character makes sense, and Anthony Quinn is a genius.

    • @12classics39
      @12classics39 Рік тому +3

      I agree. From an artistic standpoint, Auda is a very entertaining character. He represents the mindset of older conservative tribesmen who had no desire to integrate themselves into the modern political world. He’s also hilarious in moments where he never means to be. His idea of insulting Majid is calling him a “tulip” during the dinner scene. LOL.

I love the humor with Ali and Auda insulting each other while Lawrence is back there looking dumb with his hands in the air because he's being held up by a child! So funny. I've also wondered whether Ali was being portrayed by a bad guy because they dressed him in black. I would have thought black was the last color desert people would wear because it absorbs heat! It's artistic license, sure, but an interesting question.

      It's a strange thing. Look at the bedouin tents - black. I drove my truck on internals in Saudi back in the seventies (quite a few brits did) One time I delivered to a VOR site 25 miles off the road, through sand, some soft, some hard like a washboard with another Brit. At the site was an American tasked with buiding the site. He had a camper van with aircon and a freezer. A 12 year old child with his father drove up in a Toyota Hilux. The American gave the boy one ice cream a day. The Arab was the owner of the land and had sold it to Saudia. He invited us to his tent for supper. It was goat and rice, cooked in rancid Ghee. What fascinated me was that the tent, like the ones in the film was black. I wore jeans, but my pal wore shorts, the arabs wife's face was not covered as it would be in Al Khobar. She howled with laughter at Eric's bare legs. It was a surreal experience!
