    News just coming in that Omar Sharif, who featured in Doctor Zhivago, Lawrence of Arabia, Funny Girl and many more, has died at 83 y.o., of a heart attack. I remember him best from Doctor Zhivago:

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    Just saw.

    He'll always be that bloke on a camel who appears out of a shimmering heat haze in Lawrence of Arabia.

    Of course, things didn't always go his way ...

    Another legend gone. He was fantastic in Lawrence of Arabia and Doctor Zhivago.

    RIP.
