T E Lawrence spent time in a Turkish jail which was notorious for gang rapes and homosexual degradation; he had a Turkish "friend" - the boy who was killed in their retreat; there is no record that he had a girlfriend ever.... and he shot the brains out of his own camel when he fired his revolver as the beast bobbed its head up into range.....

The worst film I've suffered was so dreadful I've erased the name of it from my mind... it's the one where the Americans capture the Enigma machine and decode the whole of the German spy network thus saving the world for America. There might have been some English person in the film, but that is as close as it came to authenticity....
