r96 s Interesting, but also uninteresting. The key plotlines of 'A Dangerous Man: Lawrence After Arabia', an "unofficial sequel" to that 1962 movie, are actually fairly intriguing, though it's all kinda presented via quite underwhelming means. My personal interest in events onscreen dipped and piqued fairly often. A trimmed run time would've helped, I'd imagine. On the cast, a debuting Ralph Fiennes makes for a solid Lawrence, though that is not a surprise given he is an excellent actor. Alexander Siddig (aka Siddig El Fadil, also basically debuting) is another noteworthy name, though I feel like he would've made a better Sherif Ali (not that he appears here) rather than Prince Faisal - Siddig is good, all the same. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 09/10/24 Full Review Kitty _ Raiph Fiennes is shockingly gorgeous in this film.... the movie itself isn't too bad either Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/11/23 Full Review Audience Member My husband is obsessed with "Lawrence" and ordered this DVD. We watched it in two sittings. Ralph Fiennes is so georgeous in this movie. He plays T.E. Lawrence and, according to my husband, Lawrence's family says that he was very accurate at capturing T.E. Lawrence's manner in this film. It's an interesting look into a backstory of how France and England negotiated their ownership in the middle east. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member While the first "Lawrence of Arabia" is a sweeping epic, the sequel is something else altogether. "Lawrence of Arabia" focuses on Lawrence the hero, whilst "A Dangerous Man" Focuses on Lawrence the man. "Dangerous Man" is a personal Drama, and more of a character study on Lawrence than the first film. The film focuses on Lawrence's experiences with Prince Feisal at the 1919 peace conferance. Despite the death of his father, Lawrence continues to fight for the freedom of the arabs. Lawrence also struggles to write "The seven pillars of wisdom", his personal memoirs. Fiennes shines as T.E. Lawrence, and delivers a performance which almost surpasses Peter O'toole's Legendary performance in "Lawrence Of Arabia". It is a great film, and a worthy follow up to "Lawrence Of Arabia". Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member [08/11] Mein größtes Problem mit diesem Film ist die Tatsache, dass ich ihn einfach nicht wirklich verstanden habe. Der Ton ist so schlecht, dass ich manchmal wirklich rätseln musste, was gesagt wird. Die Performances von Ralph Fiennes und Alexander Siddig sind allerdings sehr emotional und mitreißend. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member An ok movie however he did not seem very dangerous to me in ths film(Ralph Fiennes that is).He was an interpreter for the arabs .Anyway -I probably would not watch it again.
