Today on Art of the Cut we speak with Brian Kates, ACE, about editing Bill Condon’s Kiss of the Spider Woman.

Brian’s work includes feature films like The Savages, Killing Them Softly, and Shortbus. Also documentaries like All the Beauty and the Bloodshed for which he was nominated for an ACE Eddie, and TV series like Succession, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, for which he won an Emmy, and Treme. In addition to his numerous nominations he has won two Emmys and two ACE Eddies.

Today’s discussion covers the tonal shifts between Technicolor music fantasy and imprisoned reality, managing to maintain a diverse filmography, and the joys and challenges of editing a musical.
