An actor, womanizer and lover of life | Omar Sharif | True Story Documentary Channel

Film classics like “Lawrence of Arabia” and “Doctor Zhivago” made Omar Sharif a world star. He was an actor, bridge player, nomad, womanizer and loved life. This portrait shows a man full of contradictions, who loved playing bridge more than the film business and who lived half of his life in hotels.

[@MarquitaHerald]

I was sitting at the bar late one night in Rome having a drink when he walked up next to me and asked the bartender for something. He looked at me and gave me that infamous Omar Sharif gap-toothed smile, and I melted.

He loved life above all, and life gave him the everything or the nothing, and the whatever in-between to create and perform his greatest role: a lover of life. The fortune was not monetary, nor in celebrity, but the fact that his love for life was seen , crafted, and shared, so deeply and lovingly, by others AND Omar Sharif, whether one knew him personally or not. His generosity of spirit, as an actor and as a man - on screen and off - embraced us all and that will always warm our hearts.

What a wonderful documentary. You never know what people endure as you envy what you imagine their lives to be. He had talent, intellect, good looks, but also what seemed like a profound loneliness as well. His entire career I never knew he had a son and grandson. I loved the authentic story through their eyes. Thy did not judge him, but came to accept him as he was. I remember positively being smitten with him in Funny Girl. Interesting his role in that film was Nicky Armstrong’s, a gambler. Was it life imitating art? Or art imitating his life. I’m glad he got his flowers while he lived. It was a cruel irony that a man who spent his years using his memory and intellectual gifts, would succumb to Alzheimer’s. Glad he had loved ones to care for him. I shall revisit his films. Rest in eternal Peace Mr. Sharif!

[@LadyBug1967]

Thanks for the documentary which I think was very well done. The comments are all over the place but I guess you just see what is inside you and I actually didn't see anything negative in the portrayal of this man other than he probably suffered from not having a family life but he did have a son who stood by him & a grandson who adores him and that's more than a lot of people have even if they, quote unquote, have a family. He was a marvellous actor and yes he was extremely handsome so that helped but I think he knew what he was about when he approached the role & he could manifest the character in its entirety from the inside out. I gather that he and Peter O'Toole became friends when they were doing Lawrence of Arabia and that says something because they were coming from such different backgrounds. He said he actually was not a Christian nor was he a Muslim but he was as an Arab and I think he exemplifies what a true Arab is which is a human being with a great generosity and a great understanding for The World at Large. Yes 9/11 and all the wars that America orchestrated in the Middle East at the behest of the zionists state created the term terrorist and forever more removed the TRUE meaning of what it is to be an Arab and especially an Arab man. This is very unfortunate because just as Britain left harm and destruction in its wake so America does the same-- everywhere they go. I am a Daughter of the American Revolution and I do NOT know my country. Bush Junior-- due to his lack of intelligence-- was manipulated by the VP and all the other people in the administration, abd since 911 we have gone down a very dark road that we were warned about by President Eisenhower but we failed to heed his warning and we now have ceased to be a democracy but we are instead a military dictatorship. I was warned once many decades ago by a foreigner in America-- Just be careful. DON'T ever have the military come in and take over. AND I thought how ridiculous is that. ACTUALLY not only has that happen but it is happening in spades because the pilice are trained by the zionist state which terrorizes people and tortures people & American police does that now to its own people, especially to a young people in University and most especially to the Jewish young people in University who protest against genocide. And then you bring in the state troopers and then you bring in all the other military groups we have in this country to brutalize the peaceful protesters exercising their RIGHT under the FIRST AMENDMENT , so we don't need to bring in the big military because they're out causing havoc in the rest of the world anyway. Omar Sharif was a great man in his own small way and by people with big hea❤❤rts and open minds, he will be seen and felt that way. 🕊️

[@vbrown6445]

Lovely documentary. There seemed to be an air of loneliness about him always, even when he was at the height of his fame-- a loneliness he tried to fill with bridge and horses (and perhaps women, although that wasn't detailed). A shame he didn't put that same level of dedication/passion/time into strengthening his relationship with his son while he was young. It was interesting to see how differently his son and grandson saw him. Both saw him clearly for who he was, but the grandson had a softer/more tender view of his grandfather and namesake, while the son had a more stark, at times bitter, view of the man who was more friend than father to him.
