+'''P. N. Menon (b. 1928)'''
+
+
+Malayalam director born in Malchad, Trichur.
+Studied at Trichur School of Art. Went to
+Madras (1957), worked at Vauhini Studio as
+painter of sets; later at Salem-based studios.
+Freelance visual artist in theatre (1960); made
+publicity posters and hand-outs for Tamil,
+Telugu and Malayalam cinema. First major film
+Olavum Theeravum launched the loose
+collective headed by the film’s producer
+Backer, breaking with Kerala cinema’s studio
+and stagebound conventions. This helped pave
+the way for e.g. Adoor Gopalakrishnan’s
+early films. Later cloaked his anti-feudal politics
+in existential mysticism (e.g. Malamukalile
+Daivam).
