We remember Michel Dimitri ChalhoubI who was born on this day in Alexandria, Egypt. We know him as Omar Sharif or one of the great actors of the last 50 years.
Sharif made many movies. My favorite is "Dr Zhivago" about Russia in the middle of political turmoil. Another is "Behold a pale horse" about Spain 25 years after The Civil War.
I have never read the "Zhivago" book. They tell me that it's a good one to read but a bit long. The movie is great.
