Автор: Anderson Lindsay Anderson

In cinema and in theatre, Lindsay Anderson was one of the most innovative, independent and influential directors of the twentieth century. With classic films like This Sporting Life, If…, and O Lucky Man! he established and electrifying new wave in British cinema, while in the theatre he first staged such groundbreaking plays as Serjeant Musgrave”s Dance, Home and What The Butler Saw. His Diaries were published by Methuen Drama in 2004 and are at once the intimate record of a remarkable man fiercely opposed to the political and cultural establishment of his time; a candid account of his personal and public struggles, his visionary work and troubled relationships; and an indispensable history of the artistic revolution he helped to shape.”He was a brilliant writer, with great observational and analytic gifts, a charismatic figure who commanded the attention of a generation of serious cinephiles, a person of warmth, charm and integrity who attracted a loyal band of actors and other associates” – Philip French, Observer
