Peter O’Toole: Along the Sky Road to Aqaba
Who doesn’t love Peter O’Toole? This absorbing, exuberant documentary looks at the beloved star of Lawrence of Arabia, My Favorite Year and The Ruling Class, among many others, in all his glory. It features A-list celebrities (Kenneth Branagh, Anthony Hopkins, Brian Cox, Derek Jacobi, Stephen Fry, and even O’Toole’s ex wife, Sian Phillips) talking about O’Toole, his brilliance and his alcohol-fueled hellraising lifestyle. The acclaimed director Jim Sheridan makes a strong case that stars of the past shine more brightly than our current crop. A big bonus are the clips from O’Toole’s movies and stage work.
