Directed by the master crafter David Lean.

Rating: 9/10 (24 April 2020)

They certainly don't make them like this anymore and there is no one else left around who could possibly craft an epic like David Lean could. He meticulously took months to plan each shot and for just one scene, constructed over three hundred buildings. Peter O'Toole, gives his definitive performance as the heroic Lawrence and backed by an all star cast, in sweeping, true tale, of a British maverick Colonel. There are some very unusual and artistic images that totally work and many fine details (throughout the three hour duration) to enjoy. Total cinema as an art form and this craft has basically been lost for many a year.
