The biography of Lawrence of Arabia


What else, Naher, Lawrence?! The first in the list of the best British films according to Empire magazine and the third - according to the British Institute of Cinema. The Bayopic, telling about the life of the English colonel T. Lawrence, an employee of British intelligence, who actively worked with the Arab nomads during the First World War, united them into general force and essentially led the partisan war against the Ottoman Empire.

The script is written on the basis of the autobiographical book of Lawrence himself “Seven Pillars of Wisdom” plus on research of biographers. The modern trailer is a very beautiful, very long and very epic film. The seven main “Oscars” was given this film not in vain. Do not study the story on it-there are a lot of historical inaccuishes and inaccuracies in it, partly due to contradictory information about Lawrence himself, and partly for the sake of spectacularity.

In the list of “best cinematic roles” according to the version of Premiere magazine, T. Although Oscar did not give him “Oscars” - that many filmmakers consider great historical injustice. Spielberg even claims that it was this film that prompted him to become a director. In the year, to its summer anniversary, the film was restored in high resolution for modern screens and released on Blo-Ray.

Particularly significant paths and techniques [edit] sabaton o hero antihero - Lawrence becomes to him by the end of the film. Bastard - Lawrence tells Ali that he is illegitimate. Crazy coolness - well, guess for yourself who is the champion in this. The combat sadomasochist - "Focus, William Potter, in not paying attention to pain." All shades of gray - in the film there is definitely the right side.

General Faylor - this was put up by General Murray. It is completely unfair. Proud and warlike race - Arabs are depicted by such. In half with a path to stuck in adaptation - in the book on which the film was shot, and peaceful Arabs are also shown, in the film they are all warlike thugs. Bitter the props - oh yes! There is no better theater scene than the desert! The horizon of despair is Lawrence after Dere.

The hydroelectric power station is two times: after the death of Daud in the unsteady sands and after a very unpleasant, uh, episode in Turkish captivity. Two in one and three in one: Sheriff Ali and Mr. Dradyden are collective images. From Gasim, saved by Lawrence in the desert, and Hamed, who was treasured by Lawrence for the murder, they made one character, adding the irony of fate to the plot.

Mounting Kings: Thanks to Lawrence Faisal, he became the king of Syria, and then Iraq, and his brother Abdallah became the king of Jordan. Their father Hussein became from the sheriff Mecca a descendant of the Prophet Muhammad King Hijaz, and then the Caliph of Mecca. Karmic Hudini - Turkish Bay, who ordered to beat and rape Lawrence, did not suffer any retribution.

Maybe a crazy bullet overtook him, but this is behind the scenes. The end is a little predictable - the biography of Lawrence of Arabia is well documented. Of course, his life and death are quite predictable. The pedal to the floor - the film begins with the scenes of the death and funeral of the protagonist. The Berserker button is a massacre in the village of Tafas for Lawrence and Arabs.

Cool Pravalba - Auda Abu Tayy Master of this path. Lawrence does not lag behind: “Are you going to cross the Sinai? Cool in a stupid cap - Lawrence, when he was a head officer, is a reputation as a clown. We have already seen you somewhere: inversion. To name by last name-actually the hero was called Thomas Edward Lawrence, but you are unlikely to learn about this from the film.

The beauty incompatible with life is with a screwed wick, since he still stayed alive, but, if Lawrence were not so beautiful, it is unlikely that the people of the Turkish Bey would have noticed him in Derya. The same Ali, who was walking next to him, they did not become interested in completely and sent him back almost with a kick in the ass. Self -confidence incompatible with life - well, not that with life, but in Derya Lawrence he paid a lot for excessive self -confidence and pride.

A single chromosome casting - women appear briefly in two scenes. They have no roles with words at all. However, the film does not get worse from this. Touch in adaptation - Lawrence.

The biography of Lawrence of Arabia

The book has much less pathos and more irony against itself. Arabs as a nation, in general. Orchestra bombing - oh yes, as befits the general epic of the film. The soundtrack of Maurice Jarra, performed by the London Philharmonic Orchestra, is deservedly considered one of the best in the history of cinema. The film even has an overture, as in the opera! Whitening-in all fields, since finding in the years a good actor-Arab was an almost impossible task.

The only representative of the Arabic well, more or less ethnos in the main composition is the Egyptian Omar Sharif in the role of Sheriff Ali. All the rest are Europeans, even if they play Arabs. In fairness, and they are made up well, Alek Guinness in the role of Faisal was very similar to a real faceal, and they play perfectly. A bad end: the war ended with a victory, Lawrence returns home ...

But he has a fierce ptsr, he does not know how and why live on, and a motorcycle passes by - a foreboding in his death. Everything is even a little different and cooler along this path.Lawrence dreamed of uniting Arabic tribes into a single people, and after the capture of Damascus, he even organized the Arab National Council. He wanted them to go to the world arena with independent force.

But such ideas first scattered about tribal ranges, because of which the advice crumbled, and then because of political pressure from the outside, because the monarchs do not need the parliamentary authority of the authorities that threaten their position. Prince Faisal is going to a peaceful conference in Europe and cynically notes that Lawrence must be removed from here. The information about the plans of the British and the French pops up to share the Middle East.

The revolution is not childish-when the Arabs capture Damascus, discord immediately begins between them, which the Frenchmen who want to establish their protectorate over Syria are going to use. The blood knight is Lawrence, suddenly. He did not like it in himself. Auda Abu Tayi, all the way. That's just he likes it in himself! One hundred percent external hit - those who knew the Prince Faisal said that Alec Guinness in the film was really very similar to him.

A blow of mercy: Lawrence is forced to finish off the wounded Farraj so that he does not fall alive into the hands of the Turks. Flashfordard - the film begins with the scene of the death of Lawrence and his funeral, after which the epic story about his life begins. What kind of garbage, hero? The miracle of one scene is Jose Ferrer in the role of a Turkish pervert general, to whom Lawrence was unlucky.

A bumrang joke is rather sad. The English officer, proud that he shook his hand to Lawrence, did not recognize him in Arab's clothes and hit him in the face. Cultural influence [edit] as a cult classic, this film had a huge impact on world art culture. And therefore, references and ommes to this work are found in many other works. For example, in many films and games, when the hero’s journey through the desert occurs, the accompanying melodies resemble the themes of the desert from the Lawrence of Arabia, for example, Quest for Glory II and Gothic III.

The main character Lawrence himself is the father of the Copyrkins family, then this and this way. Often it is directly mentioned in other works of art. In Ridley Scott, Prometheus, one of the main characters, Android David, is all the time reviewing the film and imitates Lawrence, even copies his hairstyle and manner to speak. In the animated series “Oh, these children!

In the Battlefield video game, a campaign with the participation of T. Lawrence is called “Nothing Designed” - this is a quote from the film, although in the game Lawrence is depicted as a historical face. And to imitate the main character of this film. True, Joseph fell asleep while watching. He does not even know how to properly saddle a camel.
