Lawrence, Lawrence!

.

Peter O'Toole, dead??
How can this be?!
I just assumed my hero would never leave us--my Lawrence, my General Silva, my Don Quixote . . .
He was the only movie star I ever cared about; he was very special; he was inspiring.

Go in peace, dear Peter O'Toole.
Thanks for all those moving moments on the screen that are often replayed in my heart. 
Your memory is truly a blessing.

  1. Oh, No! I revere very few movie stars, but Peter O'Toole has my undying admiration. Dr. Zhivago and Lawrence of Arabia are my all-time favorite movies. I am very sad!

  7. It's true that I do believe we watched Masada together. I just read in the newspaper that there was some film person who said if O'Toole was any prettier, the movie would have been called Florence of Arabia. He died too young. He was only 81!
