Schlesinger, John (Richard)
- Schlesinger, John (Richard)
(16 feb. 1926, Londres, Inglaterra–25 jul. 2003, Palm Springs, Cal. EE.UU.).
Director de cine y teatro británico. Trabajó como actor antes de llegar a ser realizador de documentales en la cadena de televisión BBC, donde dirigió
Terminus (
1960). Su primera película
Esa clase de amor (
1962) y
Billy el mentiroso (
1963) eran incisivos retratos de la vida urbana inglesa. La exitosa
Darling (
1965) se burlaba de la trivialidad del
jet set, y continuó su carrera con
Lejos del mundanal ruido (
1967). Su primera película estadounidense
Cowboy de medianoche (
1969), le valió un premio de la Academia. Entre sus siguientes largometrajes se cuentan
Domingo, maldito domingo (
1971),
Maratón de la muerte (1976),
Madame Sousatzka (
1988),
La hija de Robert Poste (1995) y
Algo casi perfecto (2000).
