LAWRENCE OF ARABIA (1962) The amazing story of T.E. Lawrence's (Peter O'Toole) heroic struggle to unify fractious Arab tribes against invading Turks in World War I is the subject of Director David Lean's timeless epic. Lavishly filmed and impeccably acted, this towering classic illuminates the clash of ideals – within both a nation and a man – that changed the tide of war and the course of history in the Middle East. Alec Guinness, Anthony Quinn and Omar Sharif co-star. Winner of seven Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Cinematography. #5 on the AFI Top 100. Ten Oscar nominations; seven wins (Best Picture, Direction, Cinematography, Art Direction, Sound, Editing, and Music). Director, David Lean, brings T.E. Lawrence's biography to the screen with such sweep and scope, that the size of the completed package simply carries the viewer away.
