Alone in the Desert

Lawrence of Arabia Winner of 7 Academy Awards

Meticulously directed by David Lean at a then-record studio cost of $13 million, the Sam Spiegel production earned seven Oscars including Best Picture, Director and Actor, and has become one of the most revered movies of all time. Peter O'Toole became an instant star in his first leading role as the dashing, slightly mad T.E. Lawrence, the British army officer who identifies with the people of Saudi Arabia and joins them in their fight against oppression. Supporting O'Toole were such outstanding actors as Alec Guinness, Anthony Quinn, Omar Sharif, Claude Rains, Arthur Kennedy (as the only American character, a journalist based on Lowell Thomas), Jose Ferrer, Anthony Quayle and Jack Hawkins.

Product Description

Product Description

LAWRENCE OF ARABIA50TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION Winner of 7 Academy Awards® including Best Picture of 1962, LAWRENCE OF ARABIA stands as one of the most timeless and essential motion picture masterpieces. The greatest achievement of its legendary, Oscar®-winning director, David Lean (1962, Lawrence of Arabia: 1957 the Bridge on the River Kwai), the film stars Peter O’Toole — in his career-making performance — as T.E. Lawrence, the audacious World War I British army officer who heroically united rival Arab desert tribes and led them to war against the mighty Turkish Empire. Newly restored and re-mastered at 4K resolution, the massive scope and epic action of the Director’s Cut of LAWRENCE OF ARABIA can now be experienced like never before in this landmark 50th Anniversary Edition.

Set Contains:

Much has been made about the wealth of extras found on the four-disc 50th-anniversary collector's edition Blu-ray, but this two-disc edition also offers an exceptional array of supplemental features devoted to the making of Lawrence. However, buyers should note that most of the extras consist of the same material found on the 2008 collector's edition DVD, including the hour-plus "Making of Lawrence of Arabia," a nine-minute conversation with Steven Spielberg about the impact of the film on his career, and four short vintage documentary featurettes about the rigors of location shooting; one of the shorter items, Wind, Sand and Star: The Making of a Classic, from 1970, is featured in a slightly shorter presentation than on the 50th-anniversary collector's edition. A newsreel from the film's premiere and a gallery of promotional material from the picture's original release and subsequent reissues round out the set, while three minor extras from the collector's edition DVD--a handful of theatrical trailers, talent files, and the DVD-ROM feature "Archives of Arabia: Historic Photographs Take You Behind the Scenes"--have not been included. In their stead are two new HD features created exclusively for the Blu-ray release: "Secrets of Arabia: A Picture-in-Graphic Track" presents an array of textual information on the film and the historical events that inspired it, including excerpts from T.E. Lawrence's own writing, maps, and still photographs that can be viewed along with the film, while "Peter O'Toole Revisits Lawrence of Arabia" is a 20-plus-minute interview with the actor, who recalls his career-changing work on the film through typically charming and informative anecdotes. For buyers wishing to have the best Blu-ray presentation possible of Lawrence of Arabia, but are unwilling or unable to pay for the 50th-anniversary collector's edition, the restored version is a fine compilation of some of the best extras available from both past and present for this extraordinary film. --Paul Gaita

A Magnificent Version of a Masterpiece

A Magnificent Version of a Masterpiece
Undeniably one of the greatest films ever made. But watching this Blu Ray on my TCL 4K television, I can’t believe how good it looks. This is a movie I would have wanted to have in 4K HDR but I’m so happy I didn't wait to see if it would ever be released in that format because I can’t see how it would look better. At $15 it’s an absolute steal. It’s beautifully packaged as well. I haven’t even seen all the extras and it’s an amazing bargain. If you’re a movie lover and you have a 4K TV do yourself a favor and get this magnificent version of this magnificent movie!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Great Lawrence of Arabia
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 8, 2024
You will immediately detect an air of reverence in my little film on YouTube 'Unveiling the Great Lawrence of Arabia'. This was not due to my paying $55 for an old film but it is one of my three best movies I have seen in my life. And now one of them has the 4K treatment, I don’t have 4K facilities but often the 2K blu ray is improved and it all comes in a steelbook enclosure.

First the price was not such a shock as I recently secured a refund on The Mandalorian steelbook just about the same price. The Mandalorian was alright to watch but I could not imagine myself viewing that first series again. There are other comparisons apart from price. Lawrence of Arabia is 3h 46m whilst the Star Wars spin-off is total 3h 20m. I will watch tonight to see if the Intermission is included for Lawrence. Ice creams ready.

As the temperature drops on our digital thermometers Lawrence lights a match on our disposable culture. Where these days every character is either good or rancid, here we witness men under fire reacting to events. Lawrence is neither good or bad. Neither set in his way or a wandering soul. He could be the definition of the unreliable narrator except for one thing. They used to call it integrity. A broader view.

Aloneness.
