Cinema Quote by Tim Roth

“I have come close to producing films. But generally by the time they hit the screen, there's about 50 people with producer credits, so what's the point. I usually find scripts I like with no money attached and take them to producers that I know and try to raise finance.” quote by Tim Roth — Download Open image
