LAWRENCE OF ARABIA
DIRECTED BY DAVID LEAN
INTRODUCTION
Anyone who has been following my recent film and DVD reviews (and if you have, thank you!!) would be forgiven for thinking that this was David Lean season!!
David Lean has produced so many of my favourite films and is without doubt one of our finest directors.
I am nearly at the end (stop cheering) of my reviews of his work - although there are still a couple tucked away (sorry!!) this review is about a film that in my opinion is one of the best pieces of film making ever.

Of all the epic films produced to date it ranks with the best of them, and has a strong moral core as I suspect Lawrence had ...
