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.)

After being moved by the defiant rendition of La Marseillaise, Claude Rains being told, "Your winnings sir", after telling Bogart he is shocked to find out gambling is going on in Rick's Cafe always makes me laugh.

#Casablanca is toch wel dè klassieker onder de filmklassiekers.

Wie dat niet ziet, tja, die ziet het niet of heeft het nog niet gezien. ;)

“Louie, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.”
Rick Blaine

⚠️ Spoiler alert!

.. the fact that Rick refers to him as Louie here, that’s a positive signifier of their friendship indeed being a beautiful one. It’s a lovely line that concludes the whole movie on a high ..

Wonderful film from 1942, even though it's part of a turn on Hollywood's part from the social to the psychological.
