Lawrence of Arabia Critique

Lawrence of Arabia seemed to focus mostly on contrasting light and camera views over 30 feet from the action that is happening in the scene. The clothes worn by the actors and the actors themselves semmed to match the environment where they were placed in except for the kilt wearing soldiers. The music helped to make the sandstorm in the desert more realistic as did the sounds of people shouting in the town when Acaba was taken. Many of the camera techniques seemed to focus on only either the people talking or were long views to show the sizes of the people in comparison to other things like the train when it was raided or the distance between the prisoners and Lawrences' army when they were moving in the desert.
