With Lawrence of Arabia

This silent 1927 newsreel, part of Kodak's Kodascope Library, offers rare footage of T.E. Lawrence and Emir Feisal during World War I, capturing key moments in their campaign against Ottoman forces. Filmed by journalist Lowell Thomas, the reel highlights scenes from Port Sudan, where supplies are loaded for the front, to the Arabian coast, where troops disembark. Notable highlights include Lawrence and Feisal in a truck dubbed the "Royal Limo," an assault on a railway line with armored cars, and portraits of Feisal and Lawrence's irregular army. The footage climaxes with the Arab regular army advancing into battle, offering a unique glimpse into the strategic and personal dynamics of the Arab Revolt.
