CoolioD1 Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 I think the best editing I've seen was in Slumdog Millionaire. JFK. Easily JFK. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Nevada Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 People say Run Lola Run is one of the best edited films, but I think it was just aping music videos and Danny Boyle's schtick without doing anything creative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riczhang Posted January 27, 2013 Author Share Posted January 27, 2013 I'd say North by Northwest, Citizen Kane, and Birth of a Nation are probably some of the best edited of all time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4815162342 Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Rear Window you have to consider. The film lives and dies by the camerawork and the editing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Stingray Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Agree with whoever said JFK. JFK was fucking astounding. Movie was basically 3 hours long and kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its like this two hour experimental movie with amazing visuals and music by Philip Glass. Its some trippy stuff! It makes you feel small, lost in a mad universe or some shit. Its definitely something different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
