Description
This is an overview of the turbulent career and debauched private life of the Anglo-Irish actor Peter O' Toole. A self-described member of "the crime class," he shot to stardom for his Oscar-nominated performance in David Lean' s epic, Lawrence of Arabia (1962) and later won seven additional Oscar nominations for sometimes ravishingly poignant films.
