Barbie leads the feature competition of the annual Hpa Awards, whose nominations in features, TV, documentaries, commercials and restoration were announced Tuesday.
The postproduction community nominated Greta Gerwig’s hit film for outstanding color grading, editing and sound. Close behind with two nominations apiece in the feature categories are Oppenheimer (color grading and editing), Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio (sound and visual effects), Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (color grading and editing), Tár (color grading and editing) and Avatar: The Way of Water, for which teams at Weta FX and Industrial Light & Magic were both nominated in the VFX category.
The eligibility period runs from September 2022 to September 2023, which is why some of last year’s Oscar winners and contenders are nominated alongside some of the upcoming season’s contenders.
The winners will be announced during a Nov. 9 ceremony at the Hollywood Legion Theater. The complete list of nominees follows:

Nothing is free in the world of “The White Lotus” — not even Mike White‘s beloved breakfast buffets come without confronting the frayed nerves, petty arguments, and thwarted yearnings of rich people on vacation. But not least among the pleasures of the HBO series’ second season is what changes in the move from Hawaii to Sicily. There’s a specifically European romance reflected in the look of the show and an at-times feverish rhythm to how its different plot lines fit together, bounce off each other, or both.
The show’s lush, ostentatious Italian setting allows for the same thing its predecessor did: a bunch of rich people, their hangers-on, and the folks who have to deal with them to all lose their minds in one way or another. The challenge for both the production and post teams on the series was to create an enveloping and aspirational sense of...

[This story contains spoilers for season two of HBO’s The White Lotus.]
Following months of guessing who met their demise when a body is discovered in the opening scene of The White Lotus’ second season, all was revealed in a climatic confrontation on a yacht in the final episode, titled “Arrivederci.”
Editor John M. Valerio talks about cutting that pivotal scene — as well as crafting the performances of fan favorite Jennifer Coolidge, who plays the zany and wealthy Tanya; and Tom Hollander, whose vacationer Quentin is revealed to be a villain — in a new episode of The Hollywood Reporter’s Behind the Screen.
Describing Coolidge as brilliant, Valerio says one challenge was figuring out what to keep in the episode and what to cut. “She would just come up with her hilarious ad-lib lines, and between her ad-lib lines and [creator Mike White] throwing out ad-lib lines, I would say — I mean this in the best possible way, it’s...

“Top Gun: Maverick” topped the dramatic feature editing category at the American Cinema Editors 73rd Ace Eddie Awards, while “Everything Everywhere All At Once” won the category for best edited comedic feature during Sunday’s ceremony at UCLA’s Royce Hall.
The Ace Golden Eddie Filmmaker of the Year Award, recognizing a filmmaker who exemplifies distinguished achievements in the art and business of film, was presented to Gina Prince-Bythewood for her body of work, including her latest film “The Woman King.”

She has been a mentor and an inspiration to many women working in film and TV paving the way for a new generation.

“The Woman King” director Gina Prince-Bythewood received the Golden Eddie Filmmaker of the Year Award, while film editors Lynne Willingham and Don Zimmerman received Career Achievement Awards.

“Everything Everywhere All at Once” took yet another top film prize at yet another awards show on Sunday. At the American Cinema Editors (Ace) Eddie Awards, the maximalist movie directed by Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert won Best Edited Feature Film for Paul Rogers’ work that stitched together all those multiverses. On the drama side of theatrical film releases, “Top Gun: Maverick,” edited by Eddie Hamilton, took top honors.
Surprises were few among the film winners, with “Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio,” edited by Ken Schretzmann and Holly Klein, triumphing yet again. And “Fire of Love,” edited by Erin Casper and Jocelyne Chaput, followed up its recent DGA win with another victory in the documentary category.
In general, the Ace Eddie Award for film editing has been a fairly reliable predictor of Oscar success in the Best Film Editing category, with the two awards matching about two-thirds of the time...

American Cinema Editors handed out its 73rd Eddie Awards on Sunday, with Top Gun: Maverick editor Eddie Hamilton and Everything Everywhere All at Once editor Paul Rogers collecting trophies for best edited dramatic feature and comedy feature, respectively.

Everything Everywhere’s Rogers thanked mentors, friends and family, including the Daniels, remembering cutting the movie during lockdown. He also urged diversity, saying, “We can choose what stories we get to tell.” Hamilton wasn’t in attendance and colleagues accepted, reading thanks to those including Tom Cruise and Chris McQuarrie.

Top Gun: Maverick took the marquee Best Edited Feature Film (Dramatic) honor and Everything Everywhere All At Once landed the top Best Edited Feature Film (Comedy) award at the 73rd Ace Eddie Awards Sunday. Hosted by Ashley Nicole Black, the winners were announced live in a ceremony at UCLA’s Royce Hall.
Eddie Hamilton, Ace, edited Maverick, a film that earned Tom Cruise the Producer’s Guild’s David O. Selznick award at last week’s PGA Awards. The honor puts Hamilton and Top Gun: Maverick in frontrunner status in the Best Film Editing Oscar race, for which both Maverick and Everything Everywhere are nominated.
Since the turn of the 21st century, the Eddie winner for theatrical drama has gone on to score the Academy Award for Best Editing 13 of 22 times — but none of the past three years. In 2022, King Richard took that Ace trophy, but Dune went home with the Oscar.

Netflix’s horror blockbuster ”Stranger Things” and HBO’s black comedy/whodunit “The White Lotus” led the Creative Arts Emmys this weekend with five awards apiece. “Euphoria,” the gritty teen phenom, followed right behind with four prizes, while Netflix’s global sensation, “Squid Game,” the Korean survival drama, captured three wins, as did HBO’s popular “Barry” comedy. However, the critically-acclaimed, mind-bending “Severance” (Apple TV+) managed only two wins.
On the historical drama front, “The Great” (Hulu) finally broke through in Season 2 with an impressive win for period costumes, while “Bridgerton” (Netflix) took period hairstyling, and “The Gilded Age” (HBO Max) earned period/fantasy production design.
On the downside, Marvel’s mind-bending “Moon Knight” only managed one win (sound editing), while the time-bending “Loki” was shut out.

Prosthetic makeup artists Kazu Hiro and Barrie Gower and editor Tatiana S. Riegel were among the industry heavyweights who landed Creative Arts Emmy nominations on Tuesday morning.
Two-time Oscar winner Hiro landed an Outstanding Prosthetics Emmy nomination for his transformation of Sean Penn in Starz’s “Gaslit.” Hiro often spent up to two and a half hours a day transforming Penn into Attorney General John Mitchell.
Gower, a three-time Emmy winner for “Game of Thrones,” served as Special Makeup Effects Department Head on “Stranger Things” and also scored an Outstanding Prosthetic Makeup nomination.
Gower was the mastermind behind creating the prosthetics for the show’s villain, Vecna, played by Jamie Campbell Bower. The costume ended up being separated into about 24 or 25 different pieces, made from foam latex or silicone rubber material: A top of head piece, a chin appliance, a five kilogram shoulder piece, chest and back appliances, three separate...

Spoiler Alert: Do not read if you have not watched the sixth episode of “The White Lotus” Season 1, titled “Departures.”
“The White Lotus” opens with a coffin being loaded onto a plane but doesn’t address the death looming over the series until its final episode.
Learning he is about to be fired from his job as hotel manager, Armond (Murray Bartlett) goes on a drug binge and saunters over to the Pineapple Suite, which has finally been relinquished to “special chosen baby child” Shane (Jake Lacy), who is downstairs wrapping up a tumultuous honeymoon. Armond enters the suite, peeks around and swiftly unbuttons his pants to defecate in Shane’s open suitcase.
“It’s a weird combination of Armond being out of his mind but also firmly rooted in his power,” Bartlett says.
Pairing Bartlett’s bare behind with Cristobal Tapia de Veer’s cinematic score, the scene is shockingly graphic.

But as we found out when we spoke with Macchio this afternoon, the video, shot over two days at the end of May in La, has actually long been in the works…
