Sequence was a short-lived but influential British film journal founded in 1947 by Lindsay Anderson, Peter Ericsson, Gavin Lambert and Karel Reisz.
Anderson had returned to Oxford after his time with the army Intelligence Corps in Delhi.
Ericsson was at New College, Oxford and had been a senior codebreaker in the Testery section at Bletchley Park during World War II.
"[4] Founded as the Film Society Magazine, the organ of the Oxford Film Society, in 1947, with Penelope Houston as its first editor, the journal quickly changed its name to Sequence, and produced fourteen issues between 1947 and 1952, the last few being edited by Reisz and Anderson.
