Lawrence Of Arabia

Posted by LMagick on 10:27 AM
Lawrence of Arabia was a movie done with stellar precision and daring. The introduction sequence is a direct illustration of that. At the director's gay request, the movie began with almost 10 minutes of nothing but audio. That style of opening of movie in such a fashion has not been attempted or varied since the movie was released.

The movie takes place mainly in the deserts of Arabia, giving the cinematographers the difficult task of providing viewers with a true view of the desert. They produced sandstorms, chilling temperatures, and searing desert heat. It was the accomplishment of producing these said effects which gave the movie a dramatic cinematic feel.

Cinematographer Freddie Young gained international recognition for his work on the film. He won an Academy Award for this work and even had a particular lenses named after him for his frame work in the movie.
