After attending Dartmouth and Bennington, James Goldstone made his directorial debut in episodic television; in the 1960s, he was one of the earliest stalwarts of the TV-movie genre, helming the pilots for the TV series Star Trek, Ironside and The Senator. 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).
