Discs 1 & 2. The Film:
Director David Lean follows the heroic true life odyssey of T. E. Lawrence (Peter OToole) in this dramatic portrait of the famed British officers journey to the Middle East. Assigned to Arabia during World War I, Lawrence courageously unites the warring Arab factions into a strong guerrilla front and leads them to brilliant victories in treacherous desert battlefields where they eventually defeat the ruling Turkish Empire.
Leans breathtaking masterpiece premiered to critical acclaim in 1962, and won seven Academy Awards including Best Picture. The film then suffered major cuts and some of the footage was lost for thirty years. Those dramatic scenes have now been restored to this painstakingly produced Directors Cut. Presented in the original widescreen format, this newly restored Lawrence of Arabia recreates a cinematic experience unknown to audiences since the films theatrical debut..
