Tony, the Anthony Bourdain biopic directed by Matt Johnson, is in theaters now! We sat down with its editors, Curt Lobb and Bobby Upchurch, longtime Zapruder Films collaborators with credits including Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie, Blackberry, and Operation Avalanche.

In this conversation, they break down what actually separates good editing from bad, how test screenings reshaped key scenes in Tony, the story behind that Fifth of Beethoven needle drop, and how two editors split the workload on a project this size.
