James Marsh Work Quotations

I did 'Red Riding,' which is TV in the U.K. It became a feature project in North America, but we're in a great era of TV. We all know that, and we hear it all the time, but for filmmakers, it's just a godsend to have your television writing and work to do on television, and the means to do it properly.

Usually, with the work I've done, by the end, I usually feel like it's a failure. It doesn't matter how it's received.

I wanted to be a police detective. In my work, particularly in documentaries, I am obsessed with finding things out, seeking ever-new facts and perspectives - each project can involve years of research.

I've always worked very efficiently on small budgets, both in documentaries and in features.

The issue often with films is how it works with money and trying to get a visible movie star presence in the film.
