Widely considered one of the greatest and most influential films in the history of cinema, 'Laurence of Arabia' is indeed A True Epic! Its an astonishing motion-picture, that in many ways, gave a new life to film-making.
'Laurence of Arabia' Synopsis: Epic rumination on a flamboyant and controversial British military figure and his conflicted loyalties during wartime service.
'Laurence of Arabia' astonished me by its riveting storytelling. Robert Bolt & Michael Wilson's Screenplay salutes T. E. Lawrence's brave & emotional journey. The Screenplay is utterly captivating! David Lean's Direction is outstanding! Cinematography is stunning. Editing is perfect. Art & Costume Design, are superb.
Performance-Wise: Peter O'Toole is Magnificent as T. E. Lawrence. The Godly Actor delivers one of the finest performances of his career. Its a performance, that can be ranked as the best from the 1960's! Alec Guinness as Prince Faisal, is flawless. Omar Sharif as Sheriff Ali, is excellent & stands out. Anthony Quinn as Auda Abu Tayi, is fantastic, as always. Jack Hawkins as General Allenby, does very well. Anthony Quayle as Colonel Harry Brighton, is impressive. I. S. Johar is good.
On the whole, 'Laurence of Arabia' is indeed A Cinematic Masterstorke! A True Epic! Highly Recommended!
