Lawrence.of.Arabia.1962.REMASTERED.1080p.BluRay.x264 Subtitles

00:07:55,059 --> 00:07:57,He was the most extraordinary man
I ever knew.

00:07:58,020 --> 00:08:00,Did you know him well?

00:08:00,564 --> 00:08:01,I knew him.

00:08:03,526 --> 00:08:06,Well, nil nisi bonum.

00:08:06,362 --> 00:08:08,But did he really deserve...

00:08:08,489 --> 00:08:10,...a place in here?

00:08:25,673 --> 00:08:28,Lord Allenby, could you give
a few words about Lawrence?

00:08:28,843 --> 00:08:30,What, more words?

00:08:32,596 --> 00:08:34,The revolt in the desert...

00:08:34,724 --> 00:08:38,...played a decisive part
in the Middle Eastern campaign.

00:08:38,686 --> 00:08:41,Yes, sir, but about
Colonel Lawrence himself.

00:08:42,189 --> 00:08:46,No, no. I didn't know him well,
you know.

00:08:49,071 --> 00:08:52,Mr. Bentley, you know as much
about Lawrence as anybody.

00:08:52,450 --> 00:08:55,Yes, it was my privilege to know him.

00:08:55,453 --> 00:08:58,And to make him known to the world.

00:08:58,372 --> 00:09:02,He was a poet, a scholar
and a mighty warrior.

00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:04,Thank you.

00:09:04,211 --> 00:09:08,He was also the most shameless
exhibitionist since Barnum and Bailey.

00:09:09,341 --> 00:09:11,You, sir. Who are you?

00:09:11,343 --> 00:09:13,My name is Jackson Bentley.

00:09:14,055 --> 00:09:17,I overheard your last remark
and take the gravest exception.

00:09:18,225 --> 00:09:20,- He was a great man.
- Did you know him?

00:09:20,728 --> 00:09:22,No, I can't claim to have known him.

00:09:22,897 --> 00:09:25,I had the honor to shake his hand
in Damascus.

00:09:25,649 --> 00:09:27,Knew him? I never knew him.

00:09:27,568 --> 00:09:30,He had some minor function
on my staff in Cairo.

00:09:50,758 --> 00:09:52,Michael George Hartley...

00:09:52,593 --> 00:09:55,...this is a nasty, dark little room.

00:09:56,097 --> 00:09:57,That's right.

00:09:57,431 --> 00:09:59,We are not happy in it.

00:09:59,809 --> 00:10:03,I **. It's better than
a nasty, dark little trench.

00:10:03,938 --> 00:10:07,- Then you're a big noble fellow.
- That's right.

00:10:08,776 --> 00:10:12,Here is William Potter
with my newspaper.

00:10:12,947 --> 00:10:15,- Here you are, tosh.
- Thanks.

00:10:17,409 --> 00:10:20,Would you care for one of
Corporal Hartley's cigarettes?

00:10:21,997 --> 00:10:24,- Is it there?
- Of course.

00:10:24,500 --> 00:10:26,Headlines.

00:10:26,627 --> 00:10:29,But I bet it isn't mentioned
in the Times.

00:10:30,464 --> 00:10:34,"Bedouin tribes attack
Turkish stronghold."

00:10:35,803 --> 00:10:39,I bet that no one in this
headquarters even knows it happened.

00:10:39,723 --> 00:10:43,Or would care if it did.
Allow me to ignite your cigarette.

00:10:45,980 --> 00:10:47,- Mr. Lawrence?
- Yes.

00:10:48,190 --> 00:10:50,- Flimsy, sir.
- Thank you.

00:10:57,491 --> 00:11:00,You'll do that once too often.
It's only flesh and blood.

00:11:01,078 --> 00:11:03,Michael George Hartley,
you're a philosopher.

00:11:04,039 --> 00:11:05,And you're balmy!

00:11:20,055 --> 00:11:23,- It d***n well hurts!
- Certainly, it hurts.

00:11:23,517 --> 00:11:25,What's the trick, then?

00:11:25,352 --> 00:11:29,The trick, William Potter,
is not minding that it hurts.

00:11:29,690 --> 00:11:32,By the way, if Captain Gibbon
should inquire for me...

00:11:32,860 --> 00:11:36,...tell him I've gone
for a chat with the general.

00:11:37,907 --> 00:11:40,- He's balmy.
- He's all right.

00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:47,Lawrence.

00:11:48,375 --> 00:11:49,Yes?

00:11:49,793 --> 00:11:51,You're supposed to be...

00:11:52,004 --> 00:11:54,Do you usually wear your cap
in the mess?

00:11:55,257 --> 00:11:56,Always.

00:11:56,550 --> 00:11:58,You should be on duty.
Where are you going?

00:11:59,011 --> 00:12:01,Mustn't talk shop,
Freddie, not in the mess.

00:12:01,597 --> 00:12:03,I'm going for a powwow
with the general.

00:12:03,766 --> 00:12:07,I'm not asking as your superior,
but as the secretary of this mess.

00:12:07,561 --> 00:12:09,We don't want chaps in here
who should be on duty.

00:12:10,231 --> 00:12:11,Where are you going?

00:12:14,568 --> 00:12:16,I must say, Lawrence!

00:12:16,612 --> 00:12:19,- Sorry.
- You're a clown, Lawrence.

00:12:19,740 --> 00:12:23,Ah, well, we can't all be lion tamers.

00:12:25,746 --> 00:12:26,Sorry.

00:12:27,581 --> 00:12:29,It's an intrigue, Dryden.

00:12:29,750 --> 00:12:33,I do not propose to let
an overweening, crass lieutenant...

00:12:33,254 --> 00:12:36,...thumb his nose at his commander
and get away with it.

00:12:37,049 --> 00:12:40,It doesn't sound as though
he'd be any great loss, sir.

00:12:40,678 --> 00:12:43,Don't try that, Dryden.
There's a principle involved.

00:12:44,139 --> 00:12:45,There is, indeed.

00:12:45,933 --> 00:12:47,He's of no use here in Cairo.

00:12:48,102 --> 00:12:51,He might be in Arabia.
He knows his stuff, sir.

00:12:51,438 --> 00:12:52,Knows the books, you mean.

00:12:53,107 --> 00:12:56,I've already sent out
Colonel Brighton, who's a soldier.

00:12:56,443 --> 00:12:59,If Brighton thinks we should send
some arms, we will.

00:13:01,490 --> 00:13:03,Well, what more do you want?

00:13:03,325 --> 00:13:06,That there would be no question
of Lieutenant Lawrence...

00:13:06,662 --> 00:13:08,...giving military advice.

00:13:08,831 --> 00:13:10,By God, I should hope not.

00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:15,It's just that the Arab Bureau would
like its own man on the spot to...

00:13:15,713 --> 00:13:16,To what?

00:13:17,089 --> 00:13:19,To make our own appraisal
of the situation.

00:13:19,883 --> 00:13:23,I'll tell you, it's my considered
opinion and that of my staff...

00:13:24,096 --> 00:13:26,...that time spent on the Bedouin
will be time wasted.

00:13:27,141 --> 00:13:29,They're a nation of sheep-stealers.

00:13:29,685 --> 00:13:32,They did attack Medina.

00:13:32,813 --> 00:13:35,And the Turks made mincemeat
of them.

00:13:35,399 --> 00:13:36,We don't know that.

00:13:37,151 --> 00:13:41,We know that they didn't take it.
A storm in a teacup, a sideshow.

00:13:42,156 --> 00:13:46,In my opinion, this whole theater
of operations is a sideshow.

00:13:46,618 --> 00:13:49,The real war's being fought against
Germans, not Turks.

00:13:49,997 --> 00:13:52,Not here, but on
the Western front in the trenches.

00:13:53,042 --> 00:13:55,Your Bedouin Army,
or whatever it calls itself...

00:13:55,669 --> 00:13:58,...would be a sideshow of a sideshow.

00:13:58,547 --> 00:14:01,Big things have small beginnings, sir.

00:14:02,551 --> 00:14:05,Does the Arab Bureau
want a big thing in Arabia?

00:14:05,846 --> 00:14:10,Does the bureau think they'll sit down
under us when this war is over?

00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:15,The bureau thinks the job of
the moment, sir, is to win the war.

00:14:16,148 --> 00:14:18,Don't tell me my duty, Mr. Dryden.

00:14:19,276 --> 00:14:21,- Lawrence, sir.
- Send him in.

00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:24,Good morning, sir.

00:14:24,698 --> 00:14:26,Salute.

00:14:28,285 --> 00:14:31,If you're insubordinate,
I shall put you under arrest.

00:14:31,914 --> 00:14:33,- It's my manner.
- Your what?

00:14:33,916 --> 00:14:36,My manner. It looks insubordinate,
but it isn't.

00:14:37,211 --> 00:14:41,I can't make out whether you're
bad-mannered or just half-witted.

00:14:41,382 --> 00:14:44,- I have the same problem, sir.
- Shut up.

00:14:44,551 --> 00:14:47,The Arab Bureau thinks you
would be of use to them in Arabia.

00:14:48,222 --> 00:14:49,Why, I can't imagine.

00:14:50,057 --> 00:14:52,You can't perform
your present duties properly.

00:14:53,310 --> 00:14:57,"I cannot fiddle, but I can make
a great state from a little city."

00:14:57,815 --> 00:15:00,- What?
- Themistocles, sir.

00:15:00,275 --> 00:15:03,- A Greek philosopher.
- I know you've been well-educated.

00:15:04,113 --> 00:15:06,It says so in your dossier.

00:15:08,742 --> 00:15:11,You're the kind of creature
I can't stand, Lawrence.

00:15:13,956 --> 00:15:16,But I suppose I could be wrong.

00:15:16,792 --> 00:15:19,All right, Dryden.
You can have him for six weeks.

00:15:19,753 --> 00:15:23,Who knows? It might even
make a man of him. Come in!

00:15:25,259 --> 00:15:26,Yes, what is it?

00:15:26,844 --> 00:15:29,The convoy will be in
Port Said tomorrow night.

00:15:29,805 --> 00:15:31,- Is that certain?
- Yes, sir.

00:15:32,933 --> 00:15:35,There doesn't seem to be
any artillery.

00:15:35,310 --> 00:15:38,But there must be artillery!

00:15:40,858 --> 00:15:44,Sir, this is something
of an expedition.

00:15:44,611 -->...
