Shot in Glasgow and Nicaragua, this film is a controversial love story and a lament for the betrayal of the 1979 Sandinistas Revolution. Based upon the experiences of its scriptwriter, Paul Laverty, a former Glasgow lawyer who spent much of the 1980s working with human rights organizations in Nicaragua. Winner of seven Academy Awards, this stunning cinematic masterpiece launched the careers of Peter O'Toole and Omar Sharif into the international arena. The star-studded cast includes Ralph Richardson, Jose Ferrer, Anthony Quayle and Claude Rains. Story is based on the biography of T.E. Lawrence, who is a young lieutenant in the British Army in North Africa.
