Description

Includes the following films:
Lawrence Of Arabia:
The great epic masterpiece, Lawrence of Arabia is brought to DVD for the first time ever. This true life story follows the struggles of T.E. Lawrence (Peter O'Toole) in uniting the hostile Arab factions and leading them to victory over the ruling Turkish Empire during the First World War.
The film was released originally in 1962 to huge critical acclaim, winning seven Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director for David Lean. Now on DVD you can experience Lawrence of Arabia like never before. Spanning two discs, the film has been painstakingly restored to include all lost footage, combined with an outstanding array of special features to create the ultimate collectors edition.
The Bridge On The River Kwai:
When British P.O.W.s build a vital railway bridge in enemy-occupied Burma, Allied commandos are assigned to destroy it in David Lean's epic World War II adventure THE BRIDGE ON THE RIVER KWAI.
Spectacularly produced, THE BRIDGE ON THE RIVER KWAI captured the imagination of the public and won seven 1957 Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Actor (Alec Guinness), and Best Director. Even its theme song, an old WWI whistling tune, the "Colonel Bogey March," became a massive worldwide hit.
THE BRIDGE ON THE RIVER KWAI continues today as one of the most memorable cinematic experiences of all time.
A Passage To India:
Enter a world where cultures clash so violently that an entire country could split at any moment. Nominated for eleven Academy Awards and winner of two, A Passage to India is a wonderfully provocative tale, full of vivid characters, all played to near perfection. With a fabulous cast that includes Peggy Ashcroft, Judy Davis, James Fox, Sir Alec Guinness, and Nigel Havers, this hauntingly beautiful film is a daring triumph.
