No pirates were needed.
I just got back from seeing Lawrence of Arabia at the uni theatre. I'm not sure I can adequately describe the experience, but it's one everybody should have.
Even though the film is about 3.5 hours, there's not much of a plot, just trajectory. The journey. Movement, movement, movement, much of it slow. It's a very visual film and I think I'll be dreaming about the desert tonight.
Oh, all right: ohmigod Lawrence and Sherif Ali!!1! theirloveissopure!!!!!
