    Welles is the filmmaker that every great director turns to when they need a huge kick in the ass. He told it like it is. And it still is.

    Even as someone whose experience is more in digital than analog, my favorite part of making a film is editing. And Mr. Welles perfectly explained why. This is so moving.

    though I'm in my 40s and remember watching
    Orson Welles films since I was a kid. and the man
    and others influence myself to enroll into film school.
    I would love if Orson got the chance to do his film of
    Joseph Conrad's "Heart of Darkness." John Huston's
    version of 1956 Moby Dick and Orson as Father Mapple
    giving that sermon was pretty haunting.

    My cousin worked in editing film--in the digital world of course. She didn't like it and found it tedious.
    So I expected someone to say it is a pain in the *** to edit film.
    I worked a little in audio engineering beginning in the mid-late 90s when reel to reel and ADAT machines were being phased out for computers.
    I remember seeing the late music producer Steve Albini splicing audio tape together on a Struder machine on a TH-cam video.
    Such detail and precision. It must be the same as repairing watches or working as a jeweler.
    And yes Welles was an eloquent speaker.

    Orson was so right. Editing can make or break a film. The original assembly cut of _Star Wars_ was...is...a load of old crap. How can such a brilliant movie ever be bad, you ask? Well, if it's too long, sequences are put in clunky ways, unnecessary repetition of plot data is left in, the edits themselves are not great etc. From a poor misshapen lump of half finished rock came the Michelangelo's David of _Star Wars,_ emerging from heavy recutting and rearranging. Cool as the cut stuff is in itself....
