On the 60th anniversary of the film Lawrence of Arabia, produced in 1962, this cinematic work still retains its reputation as a cult classic. In addition to its epic standing, the film avoids genre limitations in depicting the highly enigmatic Thomas Edward Lawrence, who was a major figure in the desert wars of 1916 to 1918. Through historical license, David Lean was able to create a film that captured the essence and controversy surrounding the main character, portrayed by Peter O'Toole.
