One filmmaker that I have admired allot of
his work is English director Paul Greengrass. The reason for this is for the
way he films his movies, the hand free style, docudrama nature feel to his
films and the tense sequence that occur frequently over the course of his
films. While looking into the films that enjoyed a lot by Paul Greengrass The
Bourne Supremacy, United 93, The Bourne Ultimatum, Green Zone and the latest
release Captain Phillips. Christopher Rouse an American editor who has edited
them all and from those films he has been nominated for academy awards for film
editing twice and won once in 2007 for The Bourne Ultimatum. With areas of Paul Greengrass filming that
may seem a very difficult challenge to edited but Rouse has managed to do so.
With that the collaboration between to the two has created some of the most
tense sequences in film.
The
rooftop scene The Bourne Ultimatum
In this scene Rouse mages to intertwine the
action three-separated character in the chase scene where Nicky is being chased
by a assassin who is chased to Jason Bourne is chasing him, who is being
followed by police as well. He mages to create great tension while all so inter
cutting between the characters with grace. You don’t feel confused with what is
going on, you know where each character is and the direction they are heading.
The
Hijacking Captain Phillips)
This is where the hijackers are trying to board the ship after their first attempted failed the way that it slowly builds tension from first spotting the pirates at a distance to as they slowly get closer to ship. Is brilliant as the pirates get closer to the ship it cuts between the captain and crew of the ship. The closer they get to the ship the more hectic inside the ship is shown as the crew more around frantic to try and stop the hijackers. the way that he mangos change between the bridge, crew and the pirates is very fine meaning that you would see normally it being quick cuts but he stays received and only using cuts between that are let you now what is going on and giving the audience a space to breath.
End scene (United 93)

This film having one of the most touching subject matters the hijacking of one of the planes on one of biggest tragic terrorist attacks in recent history. The plot of the film follows one of the planes that was supposed to hit the white house but thanks to passengers who tried to take back the plane it crashed in field harming no people on the ground but everyone on the plane died. The scene where i believe that is one of the most brilliant edited scenes is the end scene where the passengers take on the hijackers it is done such well timed flow while mixed with hart breaking tension.
