An inordinately complex man who has been labeled everything from hero, to charlatan, to sadist, Thomas Edward Lawrence blazed his way to glory in the Arabian desert, then sought anonymity as a common soldier under an assumed name. The story opens with the death of Lawrence in a motorcycle accident in London at the age of 47, then flashbacks to recount his adventures: as a young intelligence officer in Cairo in 1916, he is given leave to investigate the progress of the Arab revolt against the Turks in World War I. In the desert, he organizes a guerrilla army and--for two years--leads the Arabs in harassing the Turks with desert raids, train-wrecking and camel attacks. Eventually, he leads his army northward and helps a British General destroy the power of the Ottoman Empire. Written by alfiehitchie

  • 50th anniversary of the movie, this year. Still so much debate about Lawrence's legacy -- I mean the real guy. There's a lot of info about the real T.E. on the internet -- T.E. Lawrence Studies, T.E. Lawrence Society, and Clio Visualizing History (this one has tons of photos, and a video etc.)

  • My name is for my friends.......... and none of my friends is a murderer DUNNN dunn DUUNNNN dun DUNNNNNN duuunnn DUNNNN DUN DUNNN!

  • I came here cause in Uncharted 3 Lawrence its the reference of Drake in his quest in the rub al jali desert. Now im downloading the movie.

  • It makes me sick to see the Arab Terrorists Bomb the Ottoman Railways & slaughter thousands of White Turks!

    Remember the Turks were the allies of the Germans & must be respected!
