Queen of the Desert
Hmm, so is this the female version of Lawrence of Arabia? It was a bit flat. It is two hours of watching Gertrude Bell (Nicole Kidman) go from place to place, really doing nothing besides attracting the interest of Damien Lewis, Robert Pattinson (as T.E. Lawrence), and James Franco (with an unconvincing British accent). There are no obstacles or threats or adventures, no moving or exciting sequences. It is as drab as sand itself. Quite a beige film, but I didn't hate it.
