Congratulations to the nominees for the 2021 ACE Eddies. Below is the official list. I have links to the Art of the Cut interviews if I have them. Most are for the editor’s work on the film nominated (Those links include the title). For some, it is just a previous interview with the editor about another film. (Those links just include an editor’s name.)

(Images or links do not support or endorse one movie or editor over another… Just for visual interest and ease of locating the image, honestly)
