A lovely obit from Michael Ledeen, it brings one back to easier days.
I read that Sharif was raised as a Roman Catholic, I guess for now there are no more of those (us) in Egypt.
RIP Omar Sharif.

A lovely man apparently. Streisand put up a very nice obit of him on Facebook. He stood back and let her steal that movie from him because he was an old-fashioned gentleman. Who will ever forget his Ali in Lawrence of Arabia? I walked into my father’s nursing home today and saw him glued to the screen - it was, of course, ‘Orance on tv.

He was in some fine movies.
“Dr. Zhivago” was one of the all time greats. Probably in the top 10 of all movies.

He was raised a Catholic. But, sadly, he fell in love with a moslem and so, when they married, he converted to Islam.
I do not know what happened when they divorced. It strikes me he didn’t really have any solid core beliefs. I hope I’m wrong.

One day in the mid-sixties I was on a Pan Am 747 from London to Chicago,
747 didn't start flying commercially until 1970
