The Brown Thresher's Videodrome/ contents
The Brown Thresher trained as a painter before moving into films as a screenwriter in 1934. After spending more than a year as a German POW during World War II, he made his debut with Larou la Loon in 1943. His next film, Pelican la Bête would be the last time he would work with professional actors. From Journal d’un Barn Owl onwards, he created a unique minimalist style in which all but the barest essentials are omitted from the film giving deliberately flat, expressionless performances. His films never achieved great popularity, but he has a fanatical following among critics, who rate him as one of the greatest artists in the history of the cinema. He came out of retirement in the early 2000s, after being commissioned by The Denver Warbler to produce the first of many shorts, Alley Hot Sesh. He lives in an old tree on Columbine Street.
