One of the all time best epics ever. The triumph of this film is that it never loses a grip on what its really about. Which is the withering of the main character until his experience in the desert overwhelms him. The last two scenes are simply superb in epitomizing that idea.

That line is especially great because when you think about Lawrence’s background and his inability to fit in with the British, it becomes clear that this assertion is actually his survival mantra and he’s talking about much more than just the physical pain of a match flame. And this mantra is put to the test by the losses and trauma he suffers while in Arabia.

Still hurts that the academy didn’t give the BEST ACTOR award to Mr. Peter O’Toole. Looking back, there is no one else who could’ve done justice to the role. Hence full credit to Sir David Lean for having selected him for this epic. This is still a benchmark movie for anyone aspiring to be an actor or director or other movie fields.

Olha só a imagem desse filme de 1963 parece ser um filme recente

Being too short, TE Lawrence first worked as a civilian for the War department and later became a 2nd Lt-Interpreter. As Turkey entered the war, Capt Newcombe and Lt TE Lawrence got a post in Cairo - Egypt. By that time TE spoke fluent French and Arabic, having very good knowledge of Syria & Sinai desert as he had joined a 6-weeks long mapping survey in December 1913 - January 1914. The Cairo HQ scene is certainly based on TE Lawrence 29th September 1915 letter in which he described how every morning the newspaper came from Alexandria, a very useful source for his daily Intel bulletin ! Big things have small beginnings... 🧐

By the oil stains in the concrete, it's very clear Lawrence parked his Brough Superior always in the same spot :) Cheers

@keithmountain9437

Ай бұрын

The machine used in the film was woefully incorrect. The registration number UL656 was not the Brough involved in the accident (although TEL had owned one with that number). That was GW2275 and it survives in private ownership. The Brough in the film was a non-original "special" which had once been used for racing and bore only a passing resemblance to a standard Brough Superior Black Alpine Grand Sport SS100 which was his last machine. It had a smaller than standard rear wheel to accommodate Lawrence`s smaller stature. At the time of his death TEL had an eighth SS100 on order from the works and his special stainless steel petrol tank had been delivered to the factory at Haydn Road, Nottingham for fitting to the motorcycle under construction. Thus the tank on the "accident" machine was a temporary "slave" item on loan from George Brough. TEL`s brother, Professor Arnold Lawrence, returned the slightly damaged accident machine to George Brough who claimed that he would keep it as a memorial to TEL. However, he soon sold it on to a London opthalmic surgeon who found to his dismay that the rear cylinder of the JAP V-twin was prone to oiling its plug in slow London traffic. He sold it in 1939 and bought a new BMW. The Brough was discovered in the early 1960`s attached to a sidecar in neglected condition and purchased for a paltry sum. It is now, rightly, the most valuable motorcycle in the world.

Scorsese talked about the bizarre cyclical nature of the opening and closing scenes. It’s like the ending segways into this first scene…. so when the movie ends it’s like it starts over. Can’t think of too many movies like that besides Memento.

"It has been recognized, you have a funny sense of fun."

I have travelled the road and stood on the spot where the accident took place. As a motorcyclist myself I was astounded that an experienced rider like Lawrence would crash there . Mostly straight road with good visibility.

The thing about the funeral scene that especially hurts is that there is no Arab to be found there. Not even Ali, with whom Lawrence developed the closest relationship in the whole film. It makes me wonder, where was Ali? Had he already died by this point? You’d think if he was alive, he’d want to pay his respects to Lawrence, who he loved so much. His saddened reaction would’ve been a great contrast to the indifference of the British attendees. Edit: I know Ali wasn’t a real person; I was referring to the film’s fictionalized world. Brighton and Bentley weren’t real people either, yet they are present at the film’s portrait of the funeral.

I'm not sure where they filmed it but yesterday, I visited Lawrence's former house (or what's left of it) which is in a place called Bovington Camp in Dorset. The house is called Cloud's Hill. It has a large gravel drive but nothing like in the film. Just about 5 mins drive is a tree and stone memorial where Lawrence crashed. It's right alongside the army Tank practice ranges. Later, I went to Lawrence's grave, which is in the village of Moreton, also Dorset. Really fascinating and especially to see Lawrence's motorbike shed. Sadly, because of Covid it was closed to the public, but I climbed over the fence and took a couple of photos lol. I thought Lawrence would approve. Apparently his belongings are there, so when it reopens I plan to go again.
