The winners for the 69th annual American Cinema Editors Awards, better known as the Eddies, were announced at the ceremony last night. Now we can compare the guild’s winners here to who they nominated for the Oscars for a better understanding (hopefully) of who will walk away with Best Film Editing at this year’s Academy Awards. As is the case with most guild awards, ACE votes for categories outside of film; however, for this blog I have included only the film categories.
