Omar Sharif 

 "It was very good luck and I had a very wonderful part. I mean, anybody who would have played this part would have succeeded, with this costume and this entrance. And I was striking looking, I must admit, now that I look back on it. I was quite striking as a person when I was at that particular age."

~ Omar Sharif on his role as Sherif Ali

 Who could possibly forget the scene where Sherif Ali and Lawrence meet for the first time -- Ali, just a distant vision becoming a reality atop his camel; Lawrence stunned and angered by the senseless brutality just committed before him. And, for some reason, I can't forget that moment when Ali, covered in filth after the attack -- massacre -- on the Turkish train, is looking for Lawrence. And then it is Ali who is angered by the senseless barbarism. Oh, and there are so many other great scenes! Thank you Omar Sharif!

 At this time, all I have are some links to the best sites about Omar Sharif. I have gone through so many! Unfortunately, these are the best of the lot! If you have/know of a good site about Omar, please let me know!
