There seems an utter lack of emotional depth to Mr. Marsh's film-making. Indulging in macabre judgements of the human spirit- he seems to remain very separate from the motives and essences of his characters. I would venture to say Mr. Marsh is the type of filmmaker who is more concerned about being a filmmaker than being a communicator of human conditions.

It seems amusing that anyone would take the time and trouble to bother commenting on James Marsh or his lackluster body of work-- let alone reading or commenting on such. However, I cannot help agree with Professor Simon.
Marsh's point of view seems a pointless one at best. Having actually had the opportunity to meet Marsh, I can say that much about March is pointless. He appears to be very impressed with himself, which I suppose will have to suffice because there seems no reason for anyone else to be.

Dear Sir,

Can you tell me how I can find a copy of James Marsh's documentary "The Burger and The King"? I saw it on Cinemax years ago, have told people about it and have had much difficulty in obtaining it. Why has it disappeared?

Sincerely,

Jon Engleman

Hi, Just wondered if anyone had posted a followup regarding this topic. I am also looking to purchase a copy of the 1996 BBC documentary "The Burger & the King" but I've had no luck.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks so much,
