ACE Presents, our popular collaborative series with American Cinema Editors (ACE), continues in May and June with two very special screenings.
For one night only in May, a panel of editors and talented colleagues of veteran editor Craig McKay, ACE, convene at Metrograph for a special post-screening discussion, honoring his career and, particularly, his work on Jonathan Demme’s skin-crawling classic The Silence of the Lambs (1991).
In June, Metrograph welcomes editor Suzi Elmiger, ACE, to discuss in-depth her work on Alan Rudolph’s offbeat Kurt Vonnegut adaptation Breakfast of Champions (1999).
American Cinema Editors (ACE) is dedicated not only to advancing the art and science of the film editing profession, but also to helping the public understand the role of the editor and the impact their contributions have on a motion picture. With this series, ACE pairs a great film and a moderated conversation with that film’s editor, providing a glimpse into one of cinema’s most vital but least understood artistic practices.
Post-screening panel with Craig McKay, ACE, Colleen Sharp. ACE, Naomi Geraghty, Tom Fleischman, Joseph DeBeasi and Patrick McMahon on Saturday, May 30th.
