| | Amazon.com: DVD: Lawrence of Arabia (1962) |
 | | "Lawrence of Arabia" is a superbly crafted film biography of one of the great men of the early twentieth century. | | | On a final note, the first time I saw "Lawrence of Arabia" about 20 years ago at a repertory movie-house, about three-quarters of the way through it the theatre lights came on and the theatre manager came out and told the audience that they were missing the last two reels of the film. | | | The film accurately shows that only Westerners thought of Arabs as 'Arabs.' Paraphrasing the character of Antony Quinn's response when Lawrence proposes that all 'Arabs' should be united: 'I know of Hawitat and Hashemites, but Arabs? |

| | Amazon.co.uk: DVD: Lawrence of Arabia - Two Disc Set [1962] |
| | For those people who watch films for the artistry and escape that films can bring, as I do, Sir David Lean's epic masterpiece 'Lawrence Of Arabia' is essential viewing. | | | Unlike Dr. Zhivago and Ryan's Daughter (both magnificent films themsleves) Lawrence of Arabia manages to maintain its splendour from start to finish, with all 3 hours and 45 minutes being a lesson in the artistry of film-making. | | | The all-time classic film of British Army officer T.E. Lawrence who united the Arab tribes against the Turks during World War I, and became a legend in his own time. |

| | Lawrence Of Arabia (1962) |
| | Lawrence of Arabia (1962) is the filmic retelling of Britishman T. Lawrence's heroic, autobiographical account of his own Arabian adventure, published in "The Seven Pillars of Wisdom" (originally published with the title Revolt in the Desert). | | | The opening scene of the film is both a prologue and an epilogue, depicting Lieutenant T. Lawrence's (Peter O'Toole) death in mid-May of 1935. | | | Lawrence remains with the soft-spoken Feisal after Brighton and Sherif Ali leave the tent, and as they speak about the Arab destiny in the face of Western warfare, the masts of the tent creak as the wind blows. |

| | St. James Encyclopedia of Pop Culture: Lawrence of Arabia |
| | After months of researching Lawrence's life, Lean agreed the story could make a fascinating film, provided a good script could be written. | | | The film is based on the exploits of British scholar and military officer Thomas Edward Lawrence. | | | Although all of this makes Lawrence of Arabia a far cry from Rambo, it makes for a more thought-provoking epic--heroic exploits may not always stem from the most heroic of motives--filled with great dialogue, great performances, gorgeous cinematography, and a sense of history. |

| | This is partly, of course, because of the film "Lawrence of Arabia" and the character of Aouda Abu Tayi as portrayed there by Anthony Quinn, and partly because they controlled the strategic area around Aqaba and the land north of it. | | | But the British had found the figurehead they needed, and Lawrence's report came down heavily in favour of backing Faisal as the chief of the Arab Revolt. | | | Lawrence had realised that in fact it was far better for the British to leave the Turks in firm possession of Mecca, but to harass their supply lines (which meant the Hejaz railway line). |

| | Lawrence of Arabia recounts the larger-than-life exploits of T.E. Lawrence (Peter O'Toole), an officer in the British army serving in the Middle East during World War I, who, according to one observer, "was a poet, a scholar, and a mighty warrior. | | | It should be noted that Lawrence of Arabia, although based on T.E. Lawrence's memoirs, "The Seven Pillars of Wisdom", does not pretend to be a documentary, and, as such, should not be held to the same strict standards of factual accuracy. | | | Fortunately, in the late-80s, the original edition of Lawrence of Arabia was painstakingly restored (with the participation of David Lean and the surviving actors). |
