In the expanded second edition of Fine Cuts, Roger Crittenden reveals the experiences of the greatest European film editors through his warm and perceptive interviews. This new edition builds on the foundations laid out in 2005, including interviews with the editors of films such as Day for Night, The Sacrifice, The Kid with a Bike, and Fanny and Alexander; new interviews with editors of such films as Tyrannosaur and The Other Side of Hope; and editors from a wider range of countries including Austria, Belgium, Finland, Portugal, and Russia. The book now embraces all aspects of post-production with insights into sound editing from Larry Sider, originator of the renowned School of Sound, and music composition from Oscar-winner Dario Marianelli (Atonement).
Editors relate their experiences with directors including:
Claire Atherton [Chantal Akerman]
Mick Audsley [Terry Gilliam, Stephen Frears]
Yann Dedet [Francois Truffaut, Claire Denis, Maurice Pialat]
Marie-Helene Dozo [Dardenne Brothers]
Francois Gedigier [Patrice Chéreau, Lars von Trier]
Samu Heikkila [Aki Kaurismaki]
Sylvia Ingemarsdotter [Ingmar Bergman]
Tony Lawson [Nicolas Roeg, Stanley Kubrick, Neil Jordan]
Michal Leszczylowski [Andrei Tarkovsky, Lukas Moodysson]
Roberto Perpignani [Orson Welles, Bernardo Bertolucci, Tavianni Brothers]
Mary Stephen [Eric Rohmer] Each interview also includes a list of cited and notable films for further study.
With a foreword by Walter Murch (three-time Oscar-winning editor of Apocalypse Now, The English Patient and The Godfather: Part III), Fine Cuts provides readers with unique insights into the art of editing.

Roger Crittenden: After a distinguished career at the BBC, where he gained a special award for sustained excellence as a film editor, he was recruited to the new National Film and Television School as Head of Editing and later became Director of the MA programme. While with the NFTS, he taught in Moscow, Mexico City, Manila, Copenhagen, Singapore, Brisbane Australia, and in Cuba. In 2014 he was given the first ever CILECT International Teaching Award for his outstanding contribution to media pedagogy. More recently, he was appointed Adjunct Professor of Film at Griffith University in Brisbane, Australia. Roger is the author of two books on editing, as well as a book on Truffaut's Day For Night for the British Film Institute's Film Classic Series.
