Lindsay Gordon Anderson was an important figure in the post-war period for British film culture, first as a critic in journals such as "Sequence" and "Sight and Sound", and then as a director of documentary, as well as feature films. This text traces Anderson's aesthetics, from the early writings in "Sequence", through his engagement in the "Free Cinema" movement and the British New Wave of the early 1960s, particularly his adaption of "This Sporting Life". It explores Anderson's entire output to explore how he contributed to a broadening of film narrative in Britain towards more radical forms.
