Best Editing Analysis
Not an easy survey; most awards don't talk about editing either.
This year's nominees are:
Cidade de Deus - Daniel Rezende
Cold Mountain - Walter Murch
Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, The - Jamie Selkirk
Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World - Lee Smith
Seabiscuit - William Goldenberg
The most significant indicator should be the guild (American Cinema Editors Award, the "Eddie") and they seem to have a pretty good track record.
The Eddie this year went to Lord of the Rings.
Rezende has only worked on 4 films; he won the British Oscar (BAFTA) this year.
Murch is an old pro. Nominated 8 times (3 for sound) and won three.
1974 - SOUND -- The Conversation
1977 - FILM EDITING -- Julia
1979 - FILM EDITING -- Apocalypse Now
* SOUND -- Apocalypse Now (won)
1990 - FILM EDITING -- Ghost
- FILM EDITING -- The Godfather, Part III
1996 - * FILM EDITING -- The English Patient (won)
- * SOUND -- The English Patient (won)
Selkirk is Lord of the Rings. Smith hasn't had a great record and Goldenberg was nominated (lost) for "The Insider."
I say, Lord of the Rings.
