Event overview
Interview and Q&A with Oscar-nominated editor Jon Gregory featuring a screening of IN BRUGES (2009) directed by Martin McDonagh.
Part of the EditFilmFest, organised by the Guild of British Film and Television Editors and hosted by Goldsmiths.
Jon Gregory has worked in TV and film since the early 80s. He has worked with directors Hanif Kureishi, Mike Newell (Four Weddings and a Funeral, Donnie Brasco), John Hillcoat (The Proposition, The Road) and Amma Asante.
His first long-standing creative partnership was with Mike Leigh which started in in 1988 with High Hopes. This partnership has continued through many films including Life is Sweet, Naked, Secrets and Lies, Another Year, Mr. Turner and last year’s Peterloo.
In recent years he has collaborated with Martin McDonagh, director of In Bruges and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri – for which Jon was nominated for an Oscar for editing in 2018. Their collaboration relies on Jon’s ability to shape scenes in Martin‘s films that change from comedic to serious in an instant. His work on IN BRUGES provides numerous examples of this skill.
For anyone involved in making, writing about, or simply watching films this is a rare opportunity to meet one of the foremost practitioners of the craft of film editing.
