Dawn breaking over the dunes. A procession of camels beneath a scorching sun. A figure emerging from a distant mirage. Shot using the deluxe, high-resolution format known as Super Panavision 70, David Lean’s epic tale of enigmatic war hero T.E. Lawrence contains some of cinema’s most iconic images. Lawrence of Arabia has been a BMFI summer tradition since 2005. Now, as we celebrate our 20th birthday, let us show you the vast, shimmering desert as never before—on stunning 70mm.
