It’s been a while since I’ve watched the movie, but I’ll give it my best try… since also I haven’t seen any arguments for INFJs and a bunch for INFPs. He sure as hell seems to have a strong Fi, but I’ll argue that seems more of a e4, at least for this representation of Lawrence. Lawrence is a man that lives in the mind more than the present reality. He is a man who maintains a solid philosophy: the mind rules over the body, and thus, anything is possible as long as he has control over his mind. This just screams inferior Se to me. Is not only that he’s detached from reality, but he has a core unshakable one linear vision. That nothing is written. Lawrence is an idealist in the broadest sense of the word. Instead of being a slave to the physical or limited by flesh and pain, he is in control of his own being, his freedom, and, most importantly, his destiny. But it all just comes down to his beliefs, and like many Ni doms, he just intuitively “knows” or beliefs these things. His Ni is everywhere, from that scene in which he believes beyond doubt that he can confront fate and go back to save that man that fell of his horse, in not a Fi moment but more of a Ni moment. He just knows it. We can see it in his moments with Alí, and very shocking, we can see that Ni-Se in the scene in which he is tortured. The reality of his body and the violence of the desert eventually do bring him back to earth in a horrific and brutal way. It is not his mind that determines his destiny; it is a biological determinism taking the place of the idealism that the mind can overcome the body. He has failed to maintain his philosophy and has only collided with the pavement of reality. He is not one of them, he cannot cross the streets without anyone noticing him. He may have envisioned something, but the truth is very different. Then we get into the Fe aux and boy does he have some big Fe. His identity is breaking throughout the movie, and this alone does not indicate Fe over Fi, but the reason it breaks… does. It’s all about losing the sense of self due to what others see of him, believe him to be, and to a point, follow and adore. He merges with this new identity that is one given by the people, just because of the satisfaction and pleasure that it gives him. The feeling of greatness and embodying a grand idea to the world, a messiah or savior figure, becomes fascinating for Lawrence; he completely surrenders to the idea of what others believe he is. A prophet, a messiah, a figure that cannot be brought down even by bullets.
