Review:
Exceptional biography of T.E. Lawrence, a British military "observer" who
strategically aids the Bedouins battle the Turks during WWI. Lawrence, played
masterfully by O'Toole in his first major film, is a hero consumed more by a
need to reject British tradition than to save the Arab population. He takes on
Arab costume and a larger-than-life persona. Stunning photography of the desert
in all its harsh reality. Blacklisted co-writer Wilson had his screen credit
restored by the Writers Guild of America in 1995. Laser edition contains 20
minutes of restored footage and a short documentary about the making of the
film. Available in letterboxed format.
