''Young men make wars, and the virtues of war are the virtues of young men: courage, and hope for the future. Then old men make the peace, and the vices of peace are the vices of old men: mistrust and caution.''

A grand classic from bygone days. Sweeping epic about the real life adventures of T.E. Lawrence, a British major who unified Arab tribes and led them in the fight for indep... read more

Okay, just so you know, it gets the 4 stars and not 5 only because I don't quite get the Arab world conflict then, and that's after actually reading his Seven Pillars of Wisdom (what can I say--I went through an intellectual phase). It's uncanny how Peter O'Toole looks exactly like the effete (onscreen, at least) former cartographer, T.E. Lawrence, and then there's David Lean's amazing vistas of ... read more

"FORMAT: 70mm CONDITION: ★★★★ NOTES: 2012 8K restoration, but one wouldn’t tell until the end credits. Looks absolutely spectacular despite the signs of wear and scratches, the picture is so sharp and the colours so vivid you could swear you were a part of the film. Presented with an overture and intermission. DATE: August 3rd 2024 CINEMA: The Prince Charles Cinema LOCATION: West End"

" There are only two words that can properly describe this film.Sweeping epic. Even if you have never seen this movie, the reputation that proceeds it is so sweeping, that, as soon as anyone hears the words "Lawrence of Arabia", they instantly know that this is probably the one movie that exists in all of filmdom that can completely epitomize the definition of that term. In basic terms, it is the sweeping epic of all sweeping epics.And when one takes into account the amount of sand fea"
