One of the most beautiful and greatest films of all time!! Pure cinematic poetry on the screen!!! I would summarize it from a Mr. Steven Spielberg Quote: '' It is a miracle of a film"

This is a great movie. Filmed on location. What great scenery. I have watched this movie before. I will never tire of watching it again.

The movie manages both senses of scale—the intimate and the expansive—with equal majesty, merging them into something moving, mesmerizing, and poetic, in a way only Lean movies could really manage.

In short, they don't make 'em like this one anymore. Viewing it is like taking a time machine to a movie age that was more naive than our own in some ways, more sophisticated and ambitious in others.

What a bold, mad act of genius it was, to make Lawrence of Arabia, or even think that it could be made.
