The Turkish Bey who captured T.E. Lawrence in Deraa--according to Lawrence, General Hajim Bey (in Turkish, Hacim Muhiddin Bey)--is not named in the movie. The incident was mentioned in "Seven Pillars of Wisdom". Some biographers (Jeremy Wilson, John Mack) argue that Lawrence's account is to be believed. Others (Michael Asher, Lawrence James) argue that contemporary evidence suggests that Lawrence never went to Deraa at this time and that the story is invented.
