Lawrence of Arabia
Summary
Mike comes out swinging, stating his "fierce loyalty" to David Lean's 1962 epic. Dan throws some softballs: is it too long? Does Lean insist upon his hero's greatness more than he dramatizes it? And is Lean unable to really articulate what the story of Lawrence is "about?" Mike responds to all of these and more while carrying a man across the Sun's Anvil!
