Hi Age of Vintage, how are you going ? This is a brilliant insight into the life of Omar Sharif. His first English-speaking role came when he was cast in Lawrence of Arabia with Peter O'Toole in 1962. He was nominated for an Academy award as best supporting actor, & a Golden globe award for best supporting actor & for New Star of the Year. Sharif was one of the many star's in MGM'S The Yellow Rolls Royce in 1964, playing a Yugoslav patriot, the film was a huge success. Sharif had his first lead role in Genghis Khan in 1965, the 4.5 Million dollar film unfortunately was not a huge box office hit. His next film was perhaps one of his most famous, Dr Zhivago the film was a huge hit & Sharif won The Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a Motion picture Drama. Dr Zhivago remains one of the Top Ten Highest Grossing Films of all time. Sharif was also praised for his portrayal of Nicky Arnstein married to Fanny Brice in Barbra Streisand's first film role in Funny Girl in 1968. Other films included Mayerling in 1968 with Catherine Deneuve, The Tamarind Seed with Julie Andrews in 1974, Juggernaut in 1974, Ashanti in 1979, & The Traveller in 2009. Omar Sharif was an Egyptian actor of International acclaim, known for his dashing good looks & his many iconic roles. Omar Sharif passed away from a heart attack on 10th of July 2015 in Cairo Egypt, he was 83 years old. Thanks Age of Vintage for this wonderful video. Love Love from Australia 🇭🇲🎬📽💛💚💙💕❤💖💋💋💋💋💋

I loved Omar Sharif in every film I ever saw him in... He possessed more than extremely good looks and intelligence-though he had both in abundance. He was an unequivocally masculine presence, which made him irresistible on a visceral level (at least to this female), but also seemed lit from within: He had a lightness of being that shone through on the screen, and gave depth to his acting. I wish I could recall the title of the last film I saw him in, but I think it was French. He was an old man, and as charismatic as ever! His character was a Muslim named Ibrahim, who befriended a Jewish boy, who looked up to him as a surrogate father. His character dies in the film, and I found it so moving, so beautifully played... I’m still sorry that he’s no longer with us, but (especially for a smoker) he had a good run! RIP Michel/Omar: Your work here is done, and we will always love you.

I vaguely remember him in Laurence of Arabia. mostly, it's the scene of him on his horse looking devastatingly handsome dressed in his desert garb. What is it about actors and acting that makes them so succeptible to having affairs? is it all the emotion they have to conjure up for the movies? Or is it that it's already in their character makeup to be unfaithful? Which is first, the trait or the environment? Ah well, r.i.p; Shariff. You were a legend in your time.

How sad that folks should have a say in who you are or not ALLOWED TO LOVE. There was a great chemistry and affection between Sharif and Streisand, on and off screen back in the day,,....... and their 'LOVE FOR EACH OTHER' should've been NOBODY'S business but THEIR OWN. RIP Omar Sharif.
