Lawrence of Arabia
is in essence a sweeping biography of T.E. Lawrence (Peter O'Toole),
the eccentric British officer who united the desert tribes of
Arabia against Turkey during World War I. A beautifully filmed
movie, Lawrence of Arabia really gives you a sense of the vast
beauty of the desert. Really needs to be seen in wide screen
format or on the big screen to be fully appreciated.
