Show Notes

"There is only the desert for you." Nick and Sophia are back to weather the sweltering heat to admire how David Lean took an extraordinary tale and made one of the most epic films in 'Lawrence of Arabia.' From its stunning cinematography and sprawling panoramas to the iconic editing (the unparalleled matchstick cut) and Peter O'Toole's sensitive yet powerful acting, there is way more to this adaptation than meets the eye. They also discuss its impressive haul at the Oscars and how they think this movie would fare with the Academy 60 years later.
