Try. At least for those of us who have never even heard of it ;)

One of the greatest films of all time.

(We are talking about Lawrence of Arabia, right?)

Thank you. I wasn't aware that this was the movie you were referencing ;)

I thought it would be an inside thing, a reference to a line in the film. Aah, well.

Ya know, I'm trying to find where to begin,...and I can't. I just can't.

Fantastic film. My all-time favourite scene from that film would have to be the match stick sequence. It's one of the best 'establishing a character' moments in film history for me. Brilliant editing and shot composition in this film, but I feel redundant even saying that.

I've seen it once, and it was a while back, but I remember I thought pretty highly of it as well. I'd love to see it on the big screen, as I have heard you just haven't enjoyed it until you have enjoyed it on the big screen. I remember some film teacher talking about a scene with someone in the desert riding up onscreen, but that you can't really make them out on the small screen. I dunno. Next time I get the opportunity, I suppose. I just remember it being an especially long movie though, but I felt it was worth it.
