In a career spanning three decades, he went from being a story and dialogue writer for director Bharathiraja from 1980 – 82 to a successful director who thrived in experimenting with different genres, before becoming an actor. With over 400 films to his name, Manivannan was one of the most experienced actors in the field and has directed exact 50 films. Manivannan was mainly a supporting actor in films and often played the comedian or the villain's role.

His biggest success was "Hon dansade en sommar" (1951, aka. " Arne Mattsson (2 December 1919 - 28 June 1995) was a Swedish film director, born in Uppsala. One Summer of Happiness"), which earned him the Golden Bear at the Berlin International Film Festival and a nomination for the Grand Prize at the Cannes Film Festival in 1952. It caused some controversy at the time because it contained nudity. His 1953 film of Peder Sjögren's second novel, "Bread of LoveKärlekens bröd"), based on Sjögren's experiences as a volunteer in the Finnish Continuation War of 1941-44 angered the author, was banned in Finland and incurred the wrath of the Soviets at the Cannes Film Festival. In spite of all this, Sjögren grudgingly admitted that as a study of men under severe pressure it was impressive. In 1958 he directed "Damen i svart", the first in the series of five "Hillman-thrillers", centred on Folke Mellvig's crime-solving middle-class city couple Kajsa and John Hillman. The second in the series, "Mannekäng i rött" (1958), is considered by some to be a precursor of the Italian giallo films, notably Mario Bava's "Blood and Black Lace". The popularity of his mystery movies declined and in the 1970s and 1980s he made mostly low-budget thrillers - some in collaboration with Mats Helge Olsson - which got mostly bad reviews. <SEP> Brian Johnson( born 1939 or 1940) is a British designer and director of film and television special effects.
