Today on Art of the Cut we speak with Bob Joyce about editing “Spinal Tap II: The End Continues.”

Bob’s been nominated for a Emmy and an ACE Eddie for editing “Albert Brooks: Defending My Life.” Among other films his other work includes two other Rob Reiner features, Shock and Awe, and LBJ. 

Today’s discussion is about the collaboration process with director Rob Reiner, using a synced recording of an audience screening to refine comic pacing, and why fantastic comic moments get deleted.
