Director David Lean’s masterful 1962 epic Lawrence of Arabia is returning to theaters by way of a 4K restoration of the director’s cut, and a dazzling trailer has been put together to celebrate the event.  For those unaware, the Best Picture-winner stars Peter O’Toole as T.E. Lawrence and follows his experiences in Arabia during World War I.  The film will now be shown again the way it was meant to be seen—on a giant movie theater screen—to celebrate the 50th anniversary.

One of the greatest films of all time is getting a touch-up and a theatrical re-release.  Per USA Today, a special, digitally-restored version of the Lawrence of Arabia director’s cut is heading back to theaters later this year, followed by a Blu-ray release and a one time only showing on the best network ever, Turner Classic Movies.  For those that haven’t seen the pic, director David Lean’s 1962 epic stars Peter O’Toole as T.E. Lawrence and follows his experiences in Arabia during World War I.  The restored director’s cut was shown at the Cannes Film Festival in May and will have its U.S. Premiere this Thursday.  Hit the jump for more, including how you can experience the restored film for yourself.
