Lawrence of Arabia is one of my favourite movies, Peter O'Toole and Omar Sharif were great in that film.

Well damn. I know what I'm watching tomorrow.

I did a leadership paper on Lawrence. Fascinating period of the war and that region.  If you enjoyed the movie, take the time to dig deeper.

Well damn. I know what I'm watching tomorrow.

If you want to watch O'Toole in his glory watch "The Stunt Man" with  Steve Railsback and Barbara Hershey.

He also starred in Zulu Dawn, the prequel to Zulu.
It was a fairly decent movie about the battle of Isandhlwana.

I was going to watch L of A again, but at 3 hours and something minutes I was unfortunately deterred!

If you start at 2200, you can watch it all in one seating but distribute it evenly between two days.
