It was fun to have those two sequences next to each other, going from humor to that devastating shot. It was fun creating this comedic moment, but then when he’s served, I wanted to make sure it was really felt and didn’t want the audience still laughing. Jennifer Lame is a popular Hollywood Editor, Jennifer Lames previous film to hit the theatres was Oppenheimer in the year 2023. I remember how devastated I was watching Adam’s dailies when he got served. When he gets served it hits this devastating moment. What I wanted to do was maintain the humor from the raw dailies. I’m a huge fan of Julie Haggerty, and I remember getting the dailies for that scene. The challenge of that scene was to make it fun and to keep it funny before that devastating moment where Charlie gets served with divorce papers. It was important to cut the voice-over first.

That scene was challenging and exciting to cut because it had to feel like a love story montage, but it’s not necessarily a love story.

The great stuff, the compliments are all there, but so are the problems. They’re love letters to each other and if you listen to the tone, there’s something telling about what’s going to unravel. In Charlie’s section, she talks about things that are perfect and annoying. Charlie tells her story and how she gave up her theater work to be with him. We tweaked it in terms of what was going to be shown and it was something we talked about a lot.įor Nicole, we wanted to capture her love for family and introduce who she is. Noah worked on it writing-wise for a while. It’s something we both love doing and this was a really fun opening. Noah and I have done a few montages together.
