I've never seen this. I might take this opportunity to see it in theaters. I heard in LA they were playing it in 70mm but there are only like 30 theaters that have 70mm.

Is it the original or the corrected version?
Watch for when Lawrence eats with the natives. In the original he was eating food with his left hand. That was noticed so they flipped the film to him eating with his right hand for the re-release.

Fandango has an entire slate of "Classic" movies they're releasing in theaters. They're the ones who got the Lord of the Rings trilogy into theaters recently.

Fandango Classics

They're also in the midst of their year-long Studio Ghibli fest

I may take the kid to see a few of the Ghibli movies.

I'll go (as it's my #1 movie of all-time) but only if they put it on one of the two large screens at my Cineplex.

Last time they put it on one of the eight smaller screens while reserving the big theaters for Marvel or some kid"s cartoon that had been playing for 2 months.

Cinemark annoyingly puts Fathom events on the small screen which negates the point.

I've seen lines for their Met opera events with tickets costing $26 each and every sear taken....because they put it in a smaller theater....

I haven't watched a movie in a public theater since Black Hawk Down.

Lawrence of Arabia is one of the few films I'd like to see on a big screen.

So yeah, I might have to break my trend in #1 above.

Well, you can fast-forward through the half-hour Prelude and Intermission orchestral , that cuts it down a bit.

First time I've ever noticed that Louie from Casablanca is in this movie. Not sure how I missed that.
