Sing for every failing

Lawrence of Arabia tells about the growth of a person and the obsession of a nation. Lawrence changed from an arrogant person to a humble and desperate person, from an ordinary person to pretentious and extraordinary, from a saint in white gauze. The gangster turns into an executioner with blood on his hands and a disillusioned mortal.

The parallel lines divided by blue and white have been placed at the junction of the sky and the earth since ancient times. Everyone abandoned by fate looks there, and everyone expected by everyone appears there. The Arabs still love oasis, but Lawrence is left with a desert that is no longer pure. Ideals can help you achieve the fruits of victory, but reality always divides it. In any era and in any world, the idealist is the sword that was discarded after use.

Every wrong start will bring endless torture, and everyone who is tortured groans into an ancient song, and every ancient song is in the blood of the roar, and the blood shed has grown this. disputes over the land. Today, only the hot gravel and the fierce wind are left on the sand, but can you see it? This piece of ignorant, greedy and cruel sand has also grown green seedlings of idealism...

The film's biggest highlight is its scene cuts and the final plot where Damascus idealism is ruthlessly shattered by realpolitik. Lawrence's pain is not just the pain of one person, and the shortsightedness of Arabia is not just the shortsightedness of a nation; every great man who has failed shares this pain, and every declining nation tastes this loneliness.
