Λάνφιλντ Σίντνεϊ (1898-1972)

Ο Σίντνεϊ Λάνφιλντ (20 Απριλίου 1898 – 20 Ιουνίου 1972) ήταν Αμερικανός σκηνοθέτης, γνωστός για τη σκηνοθεσία ρομαντικών και ελαφρών ταινιών κωμωδίας και αργότερα τηλεοπτικών προγραμμάτων.

Ο άλλοτε μουσικός της τζαζ και σταρ βουντεβίλ ξεκίνησε την πρώτη του δουλειά σκηνοθεσίας για την Fox Film Corporation το 1930. συνέχισε να σκηνοθετεί μια σειρά από ταινίες για την 20th Century Fox . Το 1941, σκηνοθέτησε την ταινία του Fred Astaire You'll Never Get Rich για την Columbia Pictures και στη συνέχεια μετακόμισε στην Paramount Pictures . Εκεί ο Λάνφιλντ δούλεψε σε μια σειρά από κινηματογραφικές κωμωδίες. Πιθανώς τον θυμούνται περισσότερο για τη σκηνοθεσία του ηθοποιού Μπομπ Χόουπ σε μια σειρά από ταινίες όπως το My Favorite Blonde (1942), Let's Face It (1943), Where There's Life (1947) και The Lemon Drop Kid(1951). Η πιο κερδοφόρα ταινία του Λάνφιλντ, ωστόσο, ήταν η πρώτη ομάδα των Basil Rathbone και Nigel Bruce ως Σέρλοκ Χολμς και Δρ. Γουάτσον στο The Hound of the Baskervilles του 1939 .
Στις αρχές της δεκαετίας του 1950, ο φερόμενος αυστηρός διευθυντής-σκηνοθέτης μετακόμισε στην τηλεόραση όπου το βοντβίλ και το κωμικό υπόβαθρό του σε ταινίες χρησιμοποιήθηκαν σε τηλεοπτικές κωμωδίες, συμπεριλαμβανομένου του Where's Raymond; , McHale's Navy και The Addams Family .
Ο Λάνφιλντ ήταν παντρεμένος με την ηθοποιό του κινηματογράφου Σίρλεϊ Μέισον από το 1927 μέχρι τον θάνατό του το 1972. 

 Τάφηκε στο νεκροταφείο του Westwood Village Memorial Park στο Λος Άντζελες. Ο Λάνφιλντ ήταν επίσης γνωστός ως Σίντνεϊ Λάντφιλντ.
