Distributor Note

Bullitt?s dynamic editing, highlighted by its twisting, squealing, hill-leaping chase sequence that leaves viewers whooping and woozy, earned a 1968 Best Film Editing Oscar and helped make the film an action classic. How do film editors work this kind of magic? This fascinating program lets you in on the secrets.

"What makes a movie a movie is the editing," says Zach Staenberg, Academy Award-winning* editor of the Matrix trilogy. Closeups, flashbacks, parallel action, slow motion, juxtaposition of images ? these are just a few tools that make clips from Birth of a Nation to Pulp Fiction, The Battleship Potemkin to Gladiator indelible. Narrated by Kathy Bates and with interviews of a who?s who of contemporary directors and editors, The Cutting Edge: The Magic of Movie Editing is, shot for shot and frame after frame, reel magic.

Product Notes

When the cameras whir to a close for the last time, and the director utters one final utterance of "that's a wrap," the job of piecing together a movie lies in the hands of some talented editors. But what goes on in the editing studio is usually a mystery to the general public, and remains an exclusive art that has been finally honed by a select band of practitioners, with many of the top directors in the game relying on these shadowy figures to help them turn their movies into masterpieces. THE CUTTING EDGE: THE MAGIC OF EDITING focuses on a number of these talented editors, in an attempt to gain a greater understanding of how the process works. Among those taking part are Zach Staenberg, who worked on THE MATRIX, while narration comes from actress Kathy Bates.
