Season 4 of Best Picture Cast is finally here and we are starting off with a two part doozy… LAWRENCE OF ARABIA! This episode is the first of a two part examination of David Lean’s Best Picture winner for the year of 1962. This week’s episode covers the beginning of the movie to the Intermission. Kieran B is joined by Artie B and Jay Dowski to dissect and marvel at all the technical aspects of this film that help it carry such a household name. We talk about why it is held on such a pedestal, and what about the movie may turn people off on their first watch.
We also play a clip of Adam St John from Kieran B’s appearence on 1001by1’s examination of Lawrence of Arabia which can be found on the Below Freezing podcast feed wherever you get your pods!
Next Monday, Part 2 will welcome back Artie B along with BPC regulars Grant Z and Joey R as we tackle the second part of the movie and all the deeper thematic elements behind the mysterious Lawrence of Arabia!
