Tony Lawson
Editing
Tony Lawson is a British film editor. His break came on the controversial Straw Dogs. During the 1970s he worked twice more with Sam Peckinpah and spent two years with Stanley Kubrick on Barry Lyndon. Since then his most long-standing collaborations have been with directors Nicolas Roeg and, more recently, Neil Jordan. Lawson emphasises that alongside considerations of continuity "one of the things editors should be looking for too is conflicts and contrasts...cut from a wide shot to a close shot, loud to soft, bright to dark, all those kind of things".
