Letterpress and Litho on Laid and white stock, with handwritten letter fron Anderson. <\/p>\n<p\/>Collection of ephemera covering the year Anderson launched &#8216;Sequence&#8217; with Peter Eriksson, Karel Reisz and Gavin Lambert. During this time Anderson served as a committee member &#8211; first for publications, and then as vice president, and contributed greatly to programming, criticism and debates organised by the society.  Penelope Houston, editor of &#8216;Sequence&#8217; also served with Anderson during this time. The programmes are retrospectively quite adventurous, a mixture of what are now Hollywood classics and Avant Garde European cinema. Anderson wrote the critical texts for many of the programmes, and later acknowledged this time as a formative one- and the seeds of the &#8216;Free Cinema&#8217; movement of the early fifties, foreshadowing much of the social realist British cinema that was to emerge in the following decade. He went on to have a fruitful career as a director with films sych as If&#8230;, O Lucky Man, This Sporting Life and Look back in Anger, as well as documentary work such as &#8216;O Dreamland&#8217;  and theatre works with the Royal Court. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":951,"template":"","meta":[],"product_cat":[24],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-8406","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-ephemera","8":"first","9":"instock","10":"shipping-taxable","11":"purchasable","12":"product-type-simple"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/november-books.com\/webstore\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/8406"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/november-books.com\/webstore\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/november-books.com\/webstore\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/november-books.com\/webstore\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/951"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/november-books.com\/webstore\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8406"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/november-books.com\/webstore\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=8406"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/november-books.com\/webstore\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=8406"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
