It is often said that a movie is written three times: once, when the screenwriter commits the story to paper; again, when the director and actors commit the story to film; and finally, when the editor constructs the story in time. This crucial final telling of the story—the editing—is no less important than the other two, but is often the least discussed. In this special evening the independent film community has the opportunity to discuss the artistry of film editing.

ANNE V. COATES (Editor) After harrowing experiences as a nurse at Sir Archibald McIndoe's pioneering plastic surgery hospital in East Grinstead, Anne Coates started to fulfil her long-held ambition to be a film director with a company called Religious Films. The work consisted of patching up prints of devotional shorts before sending them out to Britain's churches. This led to a job in the cutting room at Pinewood, where she worked on "The Red Shoes" among others before achieving her first screen credit with "The Pickwick Papers".
KEVIN TENT, A.C.E. (Editor) SIDEWAYS marks Kevin Tent’s fourth collaboration with Writer/Director Alexander Payne. Tent was nominated for an A.C.E. award for his work on Payne’s award-winning ABOUT SCHMIDT and earlier for his work on the critically acclaimed feature film ELECTION, also directed by Payne. He first collaborated with Payne on his feature debut, CITIZEN RUTH, starring Laura Dern, which premiered at the 1997 Sundance Film Festival. Tent recently cut the summer 2004 psychological thriller THE CLEARING starring Robert Redford, Helen Mirren and Willem Dafoe. He worked for the late director Ted Demme on his drug epic BLOW, starring Johnny Depp and Penelope Cruz, and with Jim Mangold on GIRL, INTERRUPTED, starring Winona Ryder and Academy Award-winner Angelina Jolie (Best Supporting Actress). His other credits include HOMAGE (a 1996 Sundance Festival premiere), GUNCRAZY, directed by Tamra Davis, and SINCE YOU'VE BEEN GONE, directed by David Schwimmer. Tent began his career with Roger Corman's New Horizons Studio, where he cut countless classics such as NOT OF THIS EARTH and HOLLYWOOD BLVD. II. He also edited FRANKENHOOKER.
