Review: "This book is an inside account from some of the world's top editors. They explain how classic films such as Ben-Hur, A Bout de Souffle, Raging Bull and Lawrence of Arabia were moulded in the cutting room. Together their experiences span from the days of silent movies to contemporary cinema. Coming from China, Italy, the UK, France, Japan, Australia and the USA, the contributors also illustrate the international nature of this 20th-century craft. Although from very different eras and cultures, these editors all have one thing in common - each of them has helped pushed the boundaries of the language of editing." "Since editing is the only craft unique to film-making, the following accounts can be read as a history of cinema. We also gain a different insight into many great directors and actors as viewed from the cutting room and away from the public glare of the shoot. Because few understand the importance of editing, this is a story rarely told." "An insight for the general reader interested in cinema, Editing & Post-Production is also a valuable resource for practising film-makers and post-production personnel."--BOOK JACKET.
