James Wilson (cinematographer)

James Wilson was a British cinematographer.[1]

The film historians Steve Chibnall and Brian McFarlane describe his work for the B movie production company The Danzigers in the 1950s as one of the company's "strongest assets", especially in his ability to create a sense of "unillusioned grimness".[2]
