I had to execute him with my pistol, there was something about it that I didn't like... I enjoyed it. - Peter O’Toole as T.E. Lawrence

Some reviews complained that there is no insight
offered into Lawrence’s character, but the film clearly depicts him as a
complex man, a messiah-like leader and a brilliant strategist whose
talents manifest a double-edged sword that both fulfill and cripple him.
Other than Star Wars, the most
recognizable and inseparable film score. It evokes drama and wonder,
enriching the already apparent artistry.
Loaded with adventures stemming from the dune-filled geography, as well
as the shifting adventures of politics and human nature.
