In this episode we discuss two Academy Award favorites from 1980, Raging Bull and The Elephant Man and discuss Thelma Schoonmaker’s first Academy Award win for Best Editing. We talk about her immense contribution to the film industry, to Martin Scorsese’s films over his career, and the signature look and style of a Scorsese film and how those feelings can be attributed to Schoonmaker’s editing prowess.
