Topol makes this film, the way he talks and insults everybody's father and mother is awesomely amusiing.
Come on you can't say these aren't funny...
To Ram Oren: "When you were 3 years old, I was stealing cattle from your father. There was a man! A lion! He shot me twice, and we came to an agreement of gentlemen. I was a guest in your house. I held you on my knee. Twice you wet your pants and mine. You have no honor." and "Hush, hush, I'm far from dead. You can ask that bag of fat who just danced for us." lol
And also: "Don't worry I did not steal the finest camels in the entire desert to, to have them butchered by Abdullah's guns".
And: "I am not familiar? I was having woman in these hills when your father was sucking milk, and your mother was..." (then gets cut off) hahaha classic.
And to Yul Brynner's character (Asher): "who is this idiot?" lol I have never seen Yul so insulted.
And talking to Kirk's character (Mickey) about Asher: "yallah azeem if one of my men spoke to me in this way I would draw my knife and make of him a eunuch...but perhaps in his case it has already been done". lol
And only because I have Arab friends who talk and act like Topol in this film, you guys might not get the humor.
There's heaps more, I wont bore ya's any longer, but if you watch this film as a comedy it's really good.
