David Lean's towering achievement, winning seven Oscars in 1962 including Best Picture, and the film that made a then-unknown Peter O'Toole an international star. The role gave him the first of eight Oscar nominations for Best Actor--none of which he won. O'Toole is riveting as T.E. Lawrence, the legendary British officer who rallied the Arabs against Turkish invaders during World War I, and Lean's film, a two-year undertaking shot entirely on location, is one of the true masterpieces of 70mm photography. With Alec Guinness, Anthony Quinn and Omar Sharif.
DIR David Lean; SCR Robert Bolt, Michael Wilson; PROD Robert A. Harris, Sam Spiegel. UK, 1962, color, 227 min. with an intermission. In English, Arabic and Turkish with English subtitles. RATED PG
