David Lean – „Lawrence von Arabien“ (1962)

Die Wüste als eine fast „grenzenlose“ Projektionsfläche, Männlichkeit als ein Mythos und das britische Imperium als Fiebertraum. Hier sehen wir keinen „Abenteuerfilm“, sondern eine Obsession in 70 Millimeter. Das vielleicht widersprüchlichste Werk in der Filmografie von David Lean. Ein Epos, mit dem er das Empire zugleich gefeiert und gnadenlos seziert hat. In einem Film, der gleichzeitig eine große antikoloniale Sehnsucht inszeniert und doch an kolonialen Blickregimen festhält. Mit Peter O’Toole, Alec Guinness, Anthony Quinn, Omar Sharif und Claude Rains. (3Sat, Wh.)

"I love you, Laura. I shall love you always until the end of my life. I can't look at you now 'cause I know something. I know that this is the beginning of the end. Not the end of my loving you but the end of our being together." – Dr Alec Harvey, Brief Encounter

What Lawrence of Arabia 1962 by David Lean is about?

Steven Spielberg, who took a lot of influence from the 1962 film Lawrence of Arabia by David Lean, said this is a kind of movie that would not be done these days. And he is not talking about the epic production, about the elaborate sets, and very complex sequences, that today in the age of CGI would totally be faked to one degree or another. What he is talking about is more political. Thomas Edward Lawrence was not necessarily a good guy. He murdered a lot of people, some in cold blood. As he himself states in the movie: he quite enjoyed it. And yet the film is an epic tale romanticizing this man as a sort of broken mythical hero. Which begs the question: why?

Tengo una norma auto impuesta: Ante la duda de no saber qué escoger, debo elegir siempre la película más antigua que tenga a mano.

Hasta hoy, este juego no me ha traído más que alegrías.
