Bangalore, India:
Director y crítico de cine británico, adalid del compromiso con las creencias morales y sociales. Su película más conocida If... (1968) expresó la protesta social mediante el humor surrealista y los efectos de distanciamiento. Tras servir en el ejército británico, Anderson asistió a la Universidad de Oxford mientras colaboraba en Sequence, una revista de cine de gran influencia. Se convirtió en un importante crítico, profesión desde la que mostró un especial interés en los trabajos del realizador británico Humphrey Jennings y del director estadounidense John Ford. También comenzó a dirigir cortometrajes documentales, entre los que destaca Every Day Except Christmas (1957), un reflejo poético del antiguo mercado de Covent Garden en Londres. El primer largometraje de Anderson fue El ingenuo salvaje (1963); entre sus otros trabajos se incluye Un hombre de suerte (1973). Llevó una carrera paralela en el teatro dirigiendo un gran número de producciones que cubren un amplio abanico de escritores contemporáneos, obras populares y reestrenos de clásicos. En 1987 dirigió su única película estadounidense, Las ballenas de agosto, un retrato sentimental de dos hermanas ancianas interpretadas por Bette Davis y Lillian Gish.
