His entree into theatrical features was the 1969 "James Garner" vehicle "A Man Called Gannon". In his subsequent films, notably "Red Sky at Morning" (1971) and "They Only Kill Their Masters" (1972), Goldstone successfully combined motion-picture production values with TV-movie pacing. Bowing out of big-screen pictures with the ignominious "Irwin Allen" "When Time Ran Out" (1980), James Goldstone returned to television, directing such made-for-TV features as "Kent State" (1981) (which earned him an Emmy award), "Charles and Diana: A Royal Love Story" (1982) and "The Bride in Black" (1990). ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
