Lawrence, who first appeared, was no different from any officer, and David Lean used one detail to show his extraordinary character: when walking in the desert, because the Arabs who accompanied him did not drink a sip of water, he was firm. Pour back the water that has been poured out. Unarmed and fearless, he rebuked Ali for his savagery and ignorance; and publicly supported Prince Harris' ideas in front of his British colleagues. The British, who were initially suspected and distrusted by the Arabs, finally led them to victory after victory over Turkey.
