Lawrence of Arabia

Starring Peter O'Toole in this award-winning classic tale of an Englishman in love with the Middle East.
Lawrence starts of as a happy go lucky recruit of the British administration, who tries to gets his passage into Cairo. There starts his love for the desert country. He leads an Arab group through the impassable desert terrain and wins a city for Prince Faizal. He becomes dear to the Arabs and the English see this as their victory as well. Lawrence is promoted and asked to continue his zeal. So Lawrence begins his campaign of conquering and along with him, his friend, Ali, and thousands of other Arab tribes lay claim on the loots. On one such attack, he fails, but he proceeds.
Even though he spends most of his time with the Arabs, he is singled out one day and he feels he should return to his own people. But on the bidding of his General, he continues his expedition. In the last city he conquers, he sees the Arab tribes unable to function as one and separating, leaving the city to the British. In the final scene, Lawrence is shown to be driving away morosely.
The movie gave me a similar feeling as Jodha Akbar after watching. It began and ran and ended. It was supposed to be a documentary and it was so. It was interesting to see the flow of emotions and turn of events in Lawrence's life. It was even more enriching to see his confidence in himself. Although I couldn't share his love for the desert and hot climate, I could sympathize with his need to belong where he couldn't. An interesting movie worth the watch and do be ready with lots of cushions for your seating.
