Simply Outstanding!

Rating: 10/10 (9 May 1999)

Lawrence Of Arabia is a remarkable film and paves the way for other adventure epics to come. About a man's struggle with identity, heroism, murder, and even homosexuality(the real Lawrence was a homosexual). David Lean does a great job presenting this epic. There are some of the finest scenes shot in the desert in this movie. For example, the intense scene when it shows the sun then Lawrence then the other man in rotations. This movie is extremely exciting and you are always hanging on the edge of your seat to see what happens next. It is amazing in the theater( I was lucky enough to catch it while in theaters for two days). Lawrence has brilliant cinematography, great directing, amazing acting, and an extraordinary screenplay. The way it shows Lawrence changing and becoming insane is remarkable. This really makes you think about how dreadful killing a man must be. Lawrence is a great movie in every aspect and a must see for any fan of the genre.
