The editor of all these wonderful films has passed away at 84. Her work in Reds and Bonnie and Clyde show that she had a real sense of pace. He was a great editor; most of these films are classics. She will be missed

Great list of films. Looks like he worked with Lumet a few times, and Beatty (as you mentioned Reds). RIP

He was a SHE.

An astounding career. She’ll be missed for sure, having contributed to the look & feel of movies during the second half of the 20th century as much as, if not more than, many directors.

SHE worked with them.

It is commendable that you posted this and that you are showing your respect, which is quite deserved, but please realize Dede was a woman.

Her work on REDS is really one for the record books.

sorry I have corrected that.

Not suprising since Beatty and Penn liked to work with women.

Night Moves is a masterfully edited film. To move from something like Reds to the breakfast club shows a real talent
