My favorite movie of all time is The Departed, which was directed by Martin Scorsese, and edited by Thelma Schoonmaker. The reason why this is my favorite movie of all time is because it was filmed in boston, and also it is loosely based off of the life of Whitey Bulger, who interests me very much. Thelma Schoonmaker has edited many different films. Schoonmaker has edited most of the films directed by Martin Scorsese, including Shutter Island, and Goodfellas. Editing is very important to filmaking because it completes the movie, cleaning up the transitions, and makeing it interesting to watch.
Here is an interview with Thelma Schoonmaker http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qFSif7o9AR4
