Irish Film Board planning more low budget movies
Chief executive Rod Stoneman said they would take the opposite approach to the firm behind hits such as Trainspotting and The Crying Game.
Mr Stoneman, who has been with the Irish Film Board for eight years, said: "We're going in exactly the opposite direction to FilmFour and doing more low budget films that we can do under our own steam." Channel 4's board is discussing its subsidiary firm's future which is expected to end efforts to rival Hollywood productions.
