Pamela Martin’s editing of King Richard, and Myron Kerstein and Andrew Weisblum for Tick, Tick … Boom!, topped American Cinema Editors’ 72nd ACE Eddie Awards, winning the categories for dramatic feature and comedy feature, respectively, Saturday (March 5) at the Theater at the ACE Hotel in Downtown Los Angeles. Organizers planned for a reduced capacity in-person event while following COVID-19 safety protocols, and an after-party followed at Clifton’s.
Martin topped a field of nominees, including Úna Ní Dhonghaíle for Belfast, Joe Walker for Dune, Tom Cross and Elliot Graham for No Time to Die and Peter Sciberras for The Power of the Dog. In the best edited comedic feature category, Kerstein and Weisblum were nominated alongside Tatiana S. Riegel for Cruella, Hank Corwin for Don’t Look Up, Andy Jurgensen for Licorice Pizza, plus The French Dispatch, which delivered a second nomination for Weisblum.
King Richard, Tick, Tick … Boom!, Dune, The Power of the Dog and Don’t Look Up are nominated for the Oscar in film editing. In four of the last 10 years, the winner of the Eddie for best edited dramatic feature went on to win the Oscar in the category.
During the evening, Jeremy Milton won the best edited animated feature Eddie for his work on Disney’s Encanto. The animated feature category was introduced in 2010. Since then, the film that won the Eddie has mirrored the recipient of the Oscar for best animated feature all but once (in 2015, when The Lego Movie won the Eddie, and Big Hero 6 grabbed the Oscar).
Summer of Soul editor Joshua L. Pearson claimed the Eddie in the feature documentary competition. In seven of the last 10 years, the winner of this category went on to win the Oscar for best feature documentary.
Among the series winners were editors of Kevin Can F— Himself, Mare of Easttown and Succession.
The presentation had a strong sense of camaraderie, and there were numerous disapproving references to the controversial decision to reformat the Academy Awards with eight categories, including editing, presented before the live broadcast and edited into the show.
While he didn’t specifically mention the Oscars, ACE president Kevin Tent earned enthusiastic applause in his welcome, as he emphasized, “Today is about all editors. We know our value … and any executives, directors or producers of value know this as well.”
Show host DJ Lance was more direct, citing the telecast plan as the audience booed loudly. He then got a laugh as he quipped, “Who are they going to get to cut it?”
Emilio Estavez presented a Career Achievement Award to Oscar winner Richard Chew (Star Wars), and remembered watching Chew receive his Oscar live during that 1978 broadcast. Accepting the award to a standing ovation, Chew said, “These are fractured and fragile times. Maybe [with movies], we can [provide] entertainment and send a message … to emphasize our common humanity.”
Debbie Allen presented a Career Achievement Award to Lillian E. Benson (Eyes on the Prize). “I hope for a safe, secure and inclusive world, and a safe, secure and inclusive industry,” said Benson, the first woman of color to be inducted into ACE. She also received a standing ovation.
Chloé Zhao was also on hand to award ACE’s Golden Eddie to the Sundance Institute and its founding senior director of artist programs, Michelle Satter. Sundance, which this year celebrates its 40th anniversary, gives emerging filmmakers “a safe place to be vulnerable,” Zhao said.
