| LAWRENCE OF ARABIA |
| 1962 Directed by: David Lean |
| David Lean originally wanted Albert Finney for the role of Lawrence but actress Katherine Hepburn told producer Sam Spiegal to cast Peter O'Toole. The movie is 216 minutes long and doesn't have any women speaking roles. Marlon Brando was also considered to be the part of Lawrence. In the 1989 re-release some of the dialog was missing so David Lean had Peter O'Toole come back to re-record the missing dialog from twenty years earlier. O'Toole called Omar Shariff 'Fred' because he stated that "no one in the world is called Omar Shariff, your name must be Fred." |
