A true story that goes beyond many fiction stories

Rating: 10/10 (6 June 2000)

When I saw this movie for the first time I was 13, and then went to a book shop and bought my first adult book: «the seven pillars of wisdom» which is the autobiographic story of colonel T.E. Lawrence. So I can say that the movie had a great influence on me. After nearly 40 years it is still an impressive drama and a very good job by David Lean even if (or because?) you don't see a woman for the whole three hours.
