Vid rec: Dreamer of the Day

Lawrence of Arabia and A Dangerous Man are two quite different films in form and intention - a cinematic epic versus an intimate political tv drama (what we'd call Kammerspiel in German); both feature excellent actors and clever scripts, and obviously, both are based on different parts of that much debated and enigmatic man, T.E. Lawrence. I wouldn't have thought it possible to make a vid based on both, would have guessed the different sources too jarring (Peter O'Toole obviously not being Ralph Fiennes, Alec Guinness not Siddig el Fadil - that's Alexander Siddig for DS9 latecomers - etc.), but no: here's a wonderful visual meditation on Lawrence using both films.

Icon love

From various friends by now:

Reply to this post, and I will tell you my favorite icon of yours. Then post this to your own journal using your own favorite icon.

Tricky to pick one's own favourite, because that usually depends on the mood, but I think I'll go with my default icon which isn't my current default icon for nothing...
