The beautiful, near-godlike Peter O'Toole stars as the tortured, Man Who Would Not Be King in director David Lean's absolute masterpiece – as close to perfect as a film can get. Featuring one of the finest casts in any motion picture: Omar Sharif (in his first major English-speaking role), Anthony Quinn, Jack Hawkins, Claude Rains and Alec Guinness as Prince Feisal. D.P. Freddie Young's 70 mm. photography is rightly considered to be a work of genius, matched by Robert Bolt and Michael Wilson's screenplay, Maurice Jarre's stirring score and John Box’s production design. Winner of 7 Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director.
