Lawrence and Twitter

The original intention of the movie is to create a hero, but the whole play is not as high as we think when we mention a hero. After walking for three hours in the classical manner of the actors, we are like sitting in a theater, watching the steps of the actors on the stage. , but it doesn't feel contrived at all. Lawrence's character is like his carefully tangled hair, soft and docile, but always radiating golden light. The director's narration is always slow and unhurried, and Lawrence walks on the road of Arab independence like a genie. His elven blue eyes gleamed to tell us that he was a foreigner, even from an Englishman who had always coveted the big fat Arabian meat. In the play, we witnessed Lawrence's resolute, brave, resolute giving up, and Desire to pick up the old business. Although the result was sad, Lawrence, the soft-spoken man, left a trace in the desert of the Sinai peninsula in silence and thought.

The most exciting part of the film is divided into different opinions. Some people like the scene where Lawrence organized a large group of Beindu people to bomb the Turk railway; this does not prevent some people from liking Lawrence with two children, long shuttle in the desert of Sinai; Some people like his camel team leisurely and heroically strolling along the skyline; the same people like to watch his various movements on the camel, holding his head proudly, just like the owner of this desolate and barren land. What I like about him is that he always follows his heart. (A short story, the most sincere Chinese translation of the famous saying "Follow your heart" by Qiao and Kaifu Lee is "counsel" :P).

The motorcycle racing at the beginning was the epitome of his legendary Arab adventure. At the start of the car, it began to rush (the holy and glorious "Arab Restoration Movement" he personally led started surprisingly smoothly), and there were some small twists and turns on the way to avoid pedestrians (Lawrence was disheartened after being arrested and executed by the Turks. Give up coldly), but it ended very simply (Damascus did not lose the slightest surrender), but after all, the car fell down for a moment, and for a long time when we were riding, we were surrounded by beautiful scenery. Abandoning the leisure of the office and yearning for the front line, Lieutenant Lawrence himself is not so masculine; he has overcome the evil that only the Beindu can survive, but cannot solve a bloodline infighting; just struggling out of the valley of death, but in Reflexively rescued in the face of opposition from the crowd; when the great storms and waves were overcome, they left in anger amid the insults. Lawrence's every step is different from that of ordinary people, but he is not on the stage at all, and he is not pretentious at all. Lawrence's bookish and even feminine movements can interpret firm elegance. When he is dressed in white and his face is silently shuttling in the desert, he is like a holy Moses walking out of Egypt. He was even Moses, who received the oracle to lead the Egyptians to their country where "milk and honey" flowed everywhere. Lawrence also led the Arabs to Damascus. What appeared in his eyes was the prospect of Arab reunification. This vision had no selfishness or purpose, but Lawrence moved forward firmly. He was as holy as the clean wind in the desert.

At that time, Arabia was once dismissed by the British generals as a "nation of sheep thieves". They laid out a mass of sand in the corner of the desert, and they were kings and emperors casually. Although my own country has already fallen into other people's planes and bombs. However, they proudly wielded Arabian machetes, rode camels under the roar of cannons, and shouted at the planes majestic - simple-minded and heart-wrenching, but surprisingly fierce when fighting with their compatriots. Lawrence is to lead this group of people "out of Egypt", but in the end, the feat and a brave heart always have a somewhat extraordinary result - they end up eating the grapes of Damascus, cutting and holding the city's life gate. When Lawrence was content to take off his white robe and hand over power to the Arabs, he found himself having a dream that could no longer be absurd. The place where the meeting was held was as noisy as a market, and the two sides who were supposed to join hands were fighting with each other. It was a turning point in the history of the Arabs, but in even a careless word, "blood flowed into a river". After leaving sadly, the only thing that could touch the lonely head of this idealist and practicalist was the prince's sentence "I owe you too much." Lawrence resolutely left a suddenly resolute back, only The white curtains fluttering in the wind, so light and loneliness, makes people feel sorry for the white robe that accompanied Lawrence in the battle.

Of course, I am willing to share the most wonderful lines in the play. Prince Faisal looked at Lawrence lovingly and gratefully, and blurted out full of guilt: "There is no need for warriors here, we are bargaining, this is the work of the old man...Young people make wars. , the essence of war is the essence of young people - courage and hope for the future; old people keep peace, and the crime of peace is the crime of old people - distrust and wariness". This mockery of war and peace that mocks reality, the helpless heart of the high-ranking prince, he can only confide to the saint in his heart. You used your courage to restore our country and give us hope, and I, the old man, sat at the negotiating table, pushing and shoving the compromised peace, and threw the oasis that you gave me with your life, in the desert hinterland. By the way, Lawrence , is where you saved that child, those of us who are loose at heart, will never take it back...

Well, back to my topic, this movie is not about Twitter. Well, Twitter is as remote and unreachable to us as Lawrence, but they are not ostentatious to help Arabs find their own voices. The Arab revolution is vigorous, and what Twitter conveys is these young people's ardent yearning for the rights that people are born with. Lawrence and Twitter, both from the West, which the Arab world hates, can turn their backs on what they hate. The fate of the Arabs is both lucky and sad. We have nothing to sigh, we don't have Lawrence or Twitter, we always praise our nation, but in the end, people let the bullets fly, but we can only recite the eight honors and eight shames.

I would like to pay tribute to those who have dreams but no selfishness in this article, you are immortal!
