Remembering Omar Sharif

Legendary Egyptian actor Omar Sharif died today in Cairo, according to his agent. He was 83.

Sharif hit it big starring in 1960s epic dramas such as Doctor Zhivago, and the movie that introduced him to world audiences: Lawrence of Arabia.

In that film, he first appears on the back of a camel, dressed as a Bedouin in headscarf and robes, brandishing a rifle as he rides toward a well where Peter O'Toole's Lawrence and his guide are drinking. He drops the guide with one shot.

Sad at his passing. A titan in the acting world is gone, like many others.

Eternal Dr. Zhivago. Learned to hate leftists with him.

RIP.
