Even though their relationship ended after Sharif became a global star, he always thought of Faten with great respect and admiration.
Scene from the Movie: Struggle in the Pier (1956)
Faten: I’m not good at saying beautiful words. Beautiful words are said in the cinema (movies)
Sharief: ohh you learned about cinema too! Have you been to the cinema?
Faten: yes, I have! In the movie a girl told the boy she loved, “I wish I was a part of you.. I want to be in your heart and soul” It’s meaningless but pleasant to hear..
