Masterpieces Classics: Lawrence of Arabia (1962)

After completing The Bridge on the River Kwai, David Lean completed his hefty and masterful Lawrence of Arabia. It is equally perfect as it is ambitious and long.

One main reason of its success is Peter O'Toole's killer debut. His performance is the greatest of all time according to Premiere Magazine. O'Toole has not one an Oscar yet, but the performance is so consistent and moody, it deserves two!
