And thus, as history has proved, love is eternal. It has been the strongest motivation for human actions throughout history. Love is stronger than life. It reaches beyond the dark shadow of death.

Nonsense. You’ve got an old-fashioned idea that divorces are something that last forever, till “death do us part”. Why, a divorce doesn’t mean anything today, Hildy. Just a few words mumbled over you by a judge. We’ve got something between us nothing can change.     

The house is interesting, it never existed. There were pieces of the house built and there’s a shot where we were walking. You see the house in the background and that’s a traveling matte shot. That was a paint of the house and we were on a treadmill. And the house is going back and we’re standing still. - Martin Landau

One of the cleverest things in Lawrence I think - I’m not sure whose idea it was, probably John Box - as you know Peter is given these robes fairly early on when he’s accepted by the Arabs, and then the rot starts to set in. And what they did was they gradually changed the material of which his Arab clothes were made, and they made it thinner and thinner until it was just muslin. At the end, he looked almost ghost-like, because the clothes he was wearing were the exact copies of the rich silk he wore at the beginning but they were almost transparent. It gave a kind of faded look which worked a treat. Nobody ever spots it. - David Lean
