Lawrence of Arabia / Bushmills Black Bush

Lawrence of Arabia / Bushmills Black Bush

Bob and Brad kick off their mini-series of three films by director David Lean, starting with his 1962 masterpiece Lawrence of Arabia. Considered one of the greatest films of all-time, it's easy to see why--the scale and scope of this film are staggering. Bob and Brad discuss the major themes of the movie before diving into a breakdown of the best (and worst) performances.

Meanwhile, they go back to the Bushmills line to try Bushmills Black Bush. Like the Red Bush expression, this Irish whiskey is a blend of single malt and grain whiskeys, but they're aged exclusively in Sherry casks, as opposed to Red Bush's bourbon  barrels. However, it's significantly pricier than red Bush at $32. What will this mean for our hosts' scores?
