arrived in Cairo and said:
"We've taken Aqaba,"
I see.
In Cairo you will put off
these funny clothes.
You will wear trousers and tell stories
of our quaintness and barbarity
and then they will
believe you.
You're an ignorant man.
Paper.
Paper!
There is no gold in Aqaba.
No gold.
No great box!
Did Auda come to
Aqaba for gold?
For my pleasure,
as you said.
But gold is honourable...
Aurens lied.
See, Auda.
"The Crown of England...
promises to pay...
to Auda Abu Tayi."
Signed in
His Majesty's absence
by...
me.
In 10 days...
I'll be back with the gold.
With gold, with guns,
with everything.
Ten days.
You'll cross Sinai?
Why not?
Moses did.
And you will take
the children?
Moses did.
Moses was a prophet,
and beloved of God.
He said there was gold here.
He lied.
He is not perfect.
Lord, can we not rest?
I told you, no rest till they know
that I have Aqaba.
Have you two
slept in beds?
Farraj?
Daud?
With sheets?
Tomorrow the finest sheets in the finest
room in the finest hotel in Cairo.
I promise.
Then it shall
be so, lord.
Look!
Pillar of fire.
No, lord. Dust.
My compass.
No matter.
If we ride west,
we must strike the canal.
Due west.
Come on!
Aurens!
Aurens!
Farraj!
Farraj!
Farraj, don't! Don't!
Don't!
Aurens.
Why do you walk?
But why, lord?
Aurens.
But why, lord?
There is room for both.
It serves no purpose.
Aurens, look!
Aurens.
Aurens. Aurens.
Aurens.
It's all right, Farraj.
It's all right.
Hey-ey-ey-ey! Hey-ey-ey-ey!
Hey-ey-ey-ey! Hey-ey-ey-ey!
Who are you?
Who are you?
-Daud!
-We're here, sir.
You taking him
in there, sir?
Yes.
Here!
Here. You!
And where the hell do you think
you're going to, Mustapha?
We are thirsty.
-Mr. Lawrence, is it?
-Yes.
-Are you going to the officers' bar, sir?
-Yes.
You can't take him in there, sir.
What do you think
you look like?
No, no.
You must go.
No, no. Go,
effendi, go!
Get out! You must
get out! Get out!
We want two large
glasses of lemonade.
This is a bar
for British officers.
That's all right.
We are not particular.
Lawrence!
Are you off your head?
Now look here, Lawrence.
Just clear out of here, will you?
Get that boy out of here.
Corporal, we'll have
this one out anyway.
-Get that wog out of here.
-Yes, clear off.
What's going on?
-It's Lawrence, sir.
-Lemonade with ice.
Well?
Explain yourself.
We've taken Aqaba.
-Taken Aqaba? Who has?
-We have.
Our side in this war has.
The wogs have.
We have.
He likes your lemonade.
You mean
the Turks have gone?
No, they're still there,
but they've no boots.
Prisoners, sir. We took them
prisoners. The entire garrison.
No, that's not true.
We killed some.
Too many, really.
I'll manage it better next time.
There's been a lot of killing
one way or another.
Cross my heart and hope to die,
it's all perfectly true.
-It isn't possible.
-Yes, it is.
I did it.
You'd better
talk to Allenby.
General Allenby?
Yes, he's in command now.
Murray's gone.
Well, that's a step
in the right direction.
First, I want a room.
With a bed, with sheets.
-Yes, of course.
-It's for him.
Right. You want a bed
yourself, don't you?
See Allenby
first, though.
Will he see me?
I think so.
Do that, then.
-I'd better shave.
-Yes, you had.
You'd better get into
some trousers too.
"Undisciplined.
Unpunctual.
Untidy.
Several languages.
Knowledge of music...
literature.
Knowledge of...
Knowledge of..."
You're an interesting man,
-Who told you to take Aqaba?
-Nobody.
-Sir.
-Sir.
Then why did you?
-Aqaba's important.
-Why is it important?
-It's the Turkish route to the canal.
-Not anymore.
They're coming
through Beersheba.
I know, but we've gone
forward to Gaza.
-So?
-So that left Aqaba behind your right.
True.
And it will be further behind your
right when you go for Jerusalem.
Am I going
for Jerusalem?
Yes.
Very well.
Aqaba behind
my right.
It threatened
El' Arsh and Gaza.
Anything else?
Yes.
Aqaba's linked
with Medina.
Do you think we should
shift them out of Medina now?
No. I think you should
leave them there.
You acted without
orders, you know.
Shouldn't officers use
their initiative at all times?
Not really. It's awfully
dangerous, Lawrence.
Yes, I know.
Already?
Yes.
I'm promoting you major.
I don't think
that's a very good idea.
I didn't ask you.
I want you to go back
and carry on
the good work.
No.
Thank you, sir.
-Why not?
-Well, I, it's...
Let me see now...
I killed two people.
I mean, two Arabs.
One was a boy.
That was...
yesterday.
I led him into a quicksand.
The other was a man.
That was...
before Aqaba, anyway.
I had to execute him
with my pistol.
There was something
about it I didn't like.
-Well, naturally.
-No. Something else.
I see. Well, that's all right.
Let it be a warning.
No. Something else.
What, then?
I enjoyed it.
Rubbish. Rubbish and nerves.
You're tired.
What do you mean by coming here dressed
like that? Amateur theatricals?
Oh, yes. Entirely.
Let me see that hat thing,
or whatever it is.
Fascinating gear
they wear.
How do you think I would
look in this, Harry?
-Damn ridiculous, sir.
-Here, you keep it.
What I'm trying to say is,
I don't think I'm fit for it.
Really? What do you
think, Dryden?
Before he did it, sir,
I'd have said it couldn't be done.
-Brighton?
-I know what he thinks.
a decoration, sir.
I don't think it matters
what his motives were.
It was a brilliant
bit of soldiering.
-Mr. Perkins!
-Sir!
Let's have a drink, gentlemen.
-You've heard about this, Mr. Perkins?
-Yes, sir.
-Bloody marvellous, sir. Well done, sir.
-Thank you, Mr. Perkins.
-Sir!
Come on, then.
You're a clever man, sir.
No, but I know a good
thing when I see one.
That's fair, surely.
Look here, now. If I am going
to break through to Jerusalem,
I must concentrate, not dissipate.
-Clausewitz.
-You know better?
I fight like Clausewitz,
then you fight like Saxe.
We should do very well
indeed, shouldn't we?
Easy, gentlemen, please.
-Will you give us something to drink?
-Of course, sir.
I'm here at the invitation
of Major Lawrence.
Tracy.
Shall we go outside?
So you hold bound
Yes.
With 1000 Arabs?
Delivered anywhere,
day or night.
It means 1000 camels.
explosives and 1000 crack rifles.
We can cross Arabia while Johnny Turk
I'll smash his railways.
I'll smash them somewhere else.
In 13 weeks I can
have Arabia in chaos.
You are going back, then?
Yes.
Of course
I'm going back.
Hm. Well, if we can
see it, so can the Turk.
If he finds he's using four divisions
to fend off a handful of bandits,
he'll withdraw.
He daren't withdraw.
