Julie Christie looks like Peter O' Tool?


Let me explain, Peter as Lawrence of Arabia, Julie as Lara - they are both blonde, blue eyes etc... Anybody else noticed that? I remember watching Lawrence and just noticed that, but i mean only the physical apereance.

Haha, I totally forgot about this post, but still agree all these years later. It's funny that there are plenty of people insisting that O'Toole would've been better in Sharif's role. Christie and O'Toole's equal levels of beauty and physical resemblances are enough to make me glad that O'Toole was not cast. It would've been so weird and creepy to see them as a passionate, romantic couple!
