A Dangerous Man: Lawrence After Arabia is a 1990 British television film depicting the experiences of T. E. Lawrence and Emir Faisal of the Hejaz at the Paris Peace Conference, after the end of the First World War. One of the conference's many concerns was determining the fates of territories formerly under the rule of the defeated Ottoman Empire. The film stars Ralph Fiennes (in his first film role) as T. E. Lawrence, Alexander Siddig (then credited as Siddig El-Fadil) as Faisal, Denis Quilley as Lord Curzon, and Nicholas Jones as Lord Dyson. It was made by Anglia Films and Enigma Television and first screened in April 1990 on the ITV network, before being aired on PBS in May 1992.
The film was produced in 1990, a year after David Lean's film epic Lawrence of Arabia (1962) was re-released to cinemas. It serves as an unofficial sequel to that earlier film, as it depicts events that happened after the First World War.
The film's screenplay was written by Tim Rose Price. Christopher Menaul directed.
