Yet another reason we share a brain. My favorite movie of all time. I was a bit older than you, and at the time I first saw it didin't quite get that the Bey had raped Lawrence (I actually read that in a book about him, afterwards). It's also the first movie that actually caused me to faint! The FOURTH time I saw it, I hadn't eaten breakfast and for the first time there was no intermission (the way it was cut first, there was an intermission). I came out into the street of Allentown, PA, where I was visiting grandparents, and there was a heat wave going on. The next thing I knew, I was lying on the sidewalk staring up at people who didn't realize I had just trekked through the desert with El Aurens.
