Omar shariff gorgeous and a fantastic actor no matter what movie especially dr zhivago when I first saw this movie I was in high school we miss you mr shariff god bless
His indéniable charm and talent, whether in Arabic or foreign films, Omar Sharif never ceased to amaze us. There will never be another Omar Sharif. Bless his soul.

Debonair, handsome, suave are just some of the adjectives to describe Mr. Sharif. He was a class act from the beginning to the end of his life. His work in Lawrence of Arabia is unparalleled. I don’t think he ever gave a bad performance. He is missed and remembered!
He lived a wonderful life. The longer you live your body and mind will deteriorate. Most people will have family taking care of them as long as possible. Omar had chose to live in a hotel which was what he wanted. Omar lived and died as an Egyptian, I like that about him.
I think you're underselling Sharifs legacy. The dude redefined heartthrobs to include non-white actors. His roles as both sheriff Ali and Zhivago is groundbreaking for actors like Pascal. His skills weren't above and beyond but Zhivago was a groundbreaking moment in couture.
When he played in that Dr. Shevago, misspelled, is the first time I had heard about him. Oh my Gosh, that movie was the best I had ever seen about love.
Near the end of the film when Sharif, as Dr. Zhivago, sees Lara walking by from the trolley car, he is so excited to see her. I can't reveal the rest of the scene for those who haven't seen it, but it's truly heartbreaking and says a great deal about lost love.
Even his Egyptian movies was wonderful, specially the Arabic version movie of Anna carnina, the name was "Nahr Al hobb" which means " love River" the co star was his wife that time " Faten Hamamh" she was a wonderful actress her self may they rest in peace ✌️ both of them He died 6 months after her death ❤️
Yes, we used to watch his movies in Arabic with his wife Faten Hamama. She was a lovely, classy lady and we heard rumors at the time that he did not treat her well and left her. I loved to watch their movies together. I was in my early teens at the time.
I am Egyptian and a big fan of Omar Sharif ,,since the middle of the 1990's -or maybe before that he came back to Egypt and made many Egyptian films and a TVdrama ,,he missed Egypt very much and wanted to spend the of his life in it , on many Iinterviews he stressed how he never favoured that life of glamour and felt like a foreigner to it always talking about being an average Egyptian guy who loved his friends here since the 1950's , visiting his school here , supporting his favourite Egyptian football team and loving Egyptian food ,,even when asked about international beautiful women who used to admire him ,he said he used to flirt but never loved except his Egyptian divorcee the Lady of the Arabic screen Faten Hamamma ..He was a very Egyptian guy inside with very Egyptian taste who wanted to spend the rest of his life in his homeland and buried in it .He was a very educated man,fluent in Arabic ,French ,English ,and Italian ,he also held a university degree from Cairo University in Physics & Maths,, and a degree in drama from England .R.I.P Omar ♥
Beautiful narrative description on a most famous world actor. He is an ardent fan of Indians. Today also I watchef his film Mckannaas Gold as Colarado. Unique actor in every respect and a humanitarian of repute. May his soul rest in peace. 🙏
He was an amazing actor and incredible in Dr. Zhivago. So sad he had Alzheimer's. Both my parents had it and neither of them ever became aggressive. It wasn't surprising with my dad because he was the calmest most gentle person and never even raised his voice. Now what's really surprising is my mom. She was a very aggressive person always yelling who had a lot of hatred and bitterness in her. Alzheimer's took it all away. Even though it was difficult to watch her lose her memory and her health failing it was a joy to see her laughter. In her last years I got to enjoy a beautiful side of her that I rarely ever witnessed.
@@monichat very true. They generalize too much with this disease. Instead of causing fear they should be educating loved ones how to make the person's life better and safer. I think some become aggressive because they're afraid. They recognize nothing and no one around them as they further regress into their childhood state. Who wouldn't be afraid. None of this was taught to our family for either of my parents. I did research on my own to learn what really happens to the mind of one who suffers from this.
@@mariag5306 As you mention, they do regress into their childhood. My husband did not remember what he ate for lunch but did talk about his childhood, his dog, his horse. It was a pleasure to listen to him. I agree with your comment 100%.
@@monichat thank you. For both my parents I collected as many fotos I could from their childhood which was very difficult to do. They grew up in Europe during WWII. I made a collage of the fotos so that when they felt lost and alone at least they saw something that they recognized. I was lucky to get a foto of my dad's childhood home. I loved listening to their stories no matter how often they repeated them. Patience is crucial especially when they ask the same questions over and over. My sister had no patience with my mother and got angry with her. I got fed up one day and said to her, one day soon she won't be asking you anything anymore. That day came a lot sooner than we expected because she was gone in 2 months after suffering 3 strokes. We never know how long we have with loved ones. I hope that you are doing well. Sending you hugs and prayers❤🙏
@@mariag5306 By coincidence, today would have been my husband's birthday. My children thought about him, I am so pleased. In a way I am glad my husband did not suffer, he was gone in four days, pneumonia. My children and I will never forget, his illness and his death were difficult on us. May he rest in peace. Same for your parents.
My parents and I loved Doctor Zhivago (film and book). My siblings not so much. To each his own, I guess. After many years, DZ still gets a well-deserved 8.0 rating on IMDB.
That was a time of ruling of hollywood ..on hearts of million youngster ...I enjoyed the rules played by omar sharif...gregory peck ...Dustin hoffman...and many others...thanks for giving a short notes on the life of the legendary ...OMAR SHARIF...👍
I think his best work was with Val Kilmer in, "Top Secret!" If you haven't seen this movie please watch it, a.s.a.p.!! He really shows his fun/funny side. He brought joy to millions of people, R.I.P. sir. Thank you for bringing happiness to all of us.
I am saddened to hear this. Not only was he incredibly handsome but he had so much talent as an actor which is usually hard to find in Hollywood. I loved all of his movies but I have always been partial to Dr. Zhivago - it was so beautiful but sad.
I have got a movie DVD of Omar Sharif with Michael Caine and Peter Ustinov in Ashanti I am dedicating this movie DVD to my old school friends who are both sisters as I hope to see them both again very soon to Chris and Hester from Billyxxxx
His son put him in a nursing home after his wife death Omar was very sad and refuse to eat or drink for 5 days which killed him ..Alzhimer patient do not decide or have will to know what they want. Alzehimer patient dose not recognize his surroundings..just to get facts straight now aways it's an epidemic to get rid of parents and not care for them when they need their children support. It's a vicious cycle
Yes, I also remember his eyes. He was looking out a window seeing many people getting killed. Eyes full of tears. I just got out my movie Dr. Zhivago. I will watch it again this afternoon.
@@expromanticart6491 I knew what you meant love. His eyes sparkled for sure. Gorgeous eyes! I just remember that part of how his eyes were full of tears and shined so bright.
He was brilliant in the western film MacKenna's gold. He outshone Gregory Peck who played the town's Marshall. Omar Sharif played a bandits role named Colorado . He was simply outstanding.

Excellent actor. Remember him in Lawrence of Arabia. That role of Omar Sherrif was first offered to Indian actor Dilip Kumar. For reasons best known to Dilip Kumar he declined the offer.
I met Omar Sharif in April of 2015 in the hotel we stayed at in El Gouna. He was always very nice to me and always smiled towards me when he saw me and my husband. But I did see him become very angry to some couple. But I still think he had every right to be. That lady sat down next to him, put her arm around him, while her guy took some pictures. A d that all without talking to him. If it would have been me, I would have reacted te same way.

What was your favorite performance by Omar Sharif?
Dr Zhivago 💕
Mayerling (Waltz)
Lawrence of Arabia
Dr. Zhivago!
@@laurastrobel718 Me too.
Sad really he’s one of the best actor in his time, at least he was taken care of by his son bless you for making his final days better!
I love the photos of him and O’Toole in their old age. It was so nice to see how close they remained after all those years. What a friendship.

He was a wonderful actor. So sorry to hear this.
Wonderful actor and Bridge player. Very talented man.
I saw Dr. Zhivago at our local theater with my sister in the 60's. Excellent actor, brought the character to life! R. I. P. Mr. Sharif.
I really enjoyed everything I saw him act in. He was talented.
I met Sharif lots of times in the French Riviera and he was a very kind man! A true gentleman by all means!
Sad to hear. He was great in all of his hits, including the underrated Night of the Generals where he reunited with Peter O’Toole
I agree about The Night of the General's. Much underrated, with a stellar cast. I wonder why? So many inferior films get much better press!
Such a wonderful actor. 🙏❤️🕊️
What a wonderful and handsome actor. He and Julie Christi lit up the screen in Dr. Zhivago. So much chemistry between those two. RIP♥️♥️
One of the best films 🎥 ever
Zhivago. wonderful.
OMG, Yes he was, and Julie Christi was absolutely beautiful. Dr. Zhivago and the Thorne Birds were the best movies I have ever seen.
@@Anonymous-jx8zy The name of the actress was not Julie Christie
@@septemberwaqar6576 You are wrong. It was Julie Christie.
I watched Doctor Zhivago 5 times within 30 years.

Met him at a bridge tournament in France.
He was very, very nice.
A great actor and a handsome man. RIP
I didn't know that he died in 2015, interesting details about his life RIP 🌄🌹
He lived a wonderful life. The longer you live your body and mind will deteriorate. Most people will have family taking care of them as long as possible. Omar had chose to live in a hotel which was what he wanted. Omar lived and died as an Egyptian, I like that about him.
The love of my life I never met! RIP, dear soul.
Thanks for your contribution to two epic movies, Dr Zhivago and Lawrence Of Arabia Omar.
R.I.P. 1932-2015
I think you're underselling Sharifs legacy. The dude redefined heartthrobs to include non-white actors. His roles as both sheriff Ali and Zhivago is groundbreaking for actors like Pascal. His skills weren't above and beyond but Zhivago was a groundbreaking moment in couture.
He was such a handsome man -but his voice was the best! You could never mistake it for any other - a true original!

Many years ago my aunt played contract bridge and travelled around the world. At one point in time Omar Sharif was her partner.
I was thinking about this actor today. I had to watch dr.chivago
Doctor Zhivago
One thing is certain, he was unique.
yup
An amazing actor... remember him in Mckennas Gold too... opposite Gregory Peck... simply superb...RIP....
There's a whole documentary of him taking care of his sister when she became house bound in her old age and was spending a fortune on home shopping.

I met Omar Sharif in April of 2015 in the hotel we stayed at in El Gouna. He was always very nice to me and always smiled towards me when he saw me and my husband. But I did see him become very angry to some couple. But I still think he had every right to be. That lady sat down next to him, put her arm around him, while her guy took some pictures.

Nice of you for ending on a high note!
First time in film history Villan dominated Hero in Macnnas Gold movie
Sharif gave hope to people of Middle East of possibility of (Western) success in 20th century. Whether that be a good thing or bad?The good/bad question plagued him most of his life, he was a very ethical man, trying to stay proud of his country and origins all the while living in wealth and western fame, and his people in Egypt going through many struggles . Rich and successful? It might not have been as easy as you may think.😉
He also had a small part in one of the later Pink Panther movies.
Apart from all other movies,Mecanas gold was very i.mpressive and successful western because of is role & acting skill...
Bridge and loss of memory loss??? More to his story!!!
My favourites are The Tamarind Seed and McKenna's Gold, he also had a cameo in a Pink Panther film as an Egyptian spy/hitman one of many sent to kill Inspector Cluseau in order to stop the insane Dreyfuss (?) destroying the world
He was also in McKennas Gold with Gregory Peck. Loved him in Dr Zhivago.
