World War I.
People say Lawrence is a hero, and it's true, Lawrence was a hero of his time. There are two shining points in Lawrence. One is the courage to create miracles. He said that everyone can be who he wants to be. He also said that how can you judge whether something can be successful before it is successful? Ali said that no one can travel by land across the desert to Akbar, and he said, I can, because I don't know the desert, so he succeeded. Second, he is a true advocate of freedom. He really did not give in to his fate. He returned to the desert in Lawrence, looking for a lost companion alone. He did not believe that Ali said that "fate is doomed". He wanted to prove to the Arabs that he could rewrite fate and create Miracle, he took a risk, he succeeded, and the moment he rescued his companion from the desert, he truly became "Lawrence of Arabia", and the Arabs truly accepted and trusted him.
The success of this film is not that Lawrence was filmed from youth to old age, from a flamboyant personality to a well-rounded life, from working and living in Cairo to leading Arab tribes in the desert to form an Arab uprising to defeat the Austro-Hungarian Empire; It's not about shooting a majestic desert scene; it's not about the high degree of restoration of the original, the coherent plot and the right background music are highly integrated... These are not the ultimate reasons for "Lawrence of Arabia" to win all kinds of awards, it is very simple, in the movie Lawrence is alive and well. His flying personality is not blunt or deliberate. He may be an odd person in the eyes of others, that is because his understanding of many things is full of philosophy. He may be an outstanding military strategist, but his inner loneliness, inner torment, inner condemnation for killing someone but inexplicably enjoying himself, no one understands, not even Ali, not even Bole Clayton , they see, only Lawrence can bring them victory. There is a saying in the movie "In the desert, only those who can win the battle can win respect." Lawrence gained respect, but also gained endless loneliness. Someone said, "It's a good movie, but you don't have to watch it. Unless you can afford it, you'll be lonely after watching it. Or you can't read it, so that's fine." Three hours and forty-five minutes of film , after reading it, there is still reluctance. Lawrence brought victory to the Arab people and then intends to go home. But then what? What about life after the legendary Lawrence?
It might be better not to know.
The moon is beautiful.
