George Landow (filmmaker)

George Landow (1944 – June 8, 2011), also known as Owen Land, was a painter, writer, photographer and experimental filmmaker. He also worked under the pen names Orphan Morphan and Apollo Jize.

His work is also known to parody the experimental and "structural film" movement, as featured in his 1975 film ''Wide Angle Saxon''. His style of filmmaking is also inspired by Bertolt Brecht, educational films, advertising and television, and employs devices used by such in his films to destroy any sense of "reality", as exhibited in ''What's Wrong With this Picture 1'' and ''Remedial Reading Comprehension''.

Shortly after the release of his film ''On the Marriage Broker Joke as Cited by Sigmund Freud...'' (1977), Landow rearranged his name to Owen Land. It is an anagram of "Landow N.E.". Provided by Wikipedia
