Stephen Mirrione (born February 17, 1969) is an American
film editor. He is best known for winning an Academy Award for his editing of the film Traffic
(2000).
Life and career
Mirrione was born in
Rashomon.[2]
Mirrione has had a
Oscar. Todd McCarthy characterized the effects of the camerawork and editing: "Soderbergh has given the film tremendous texture as well as a vibrant immediacy through constant handheld operating, mostly using available light, and manipulating the look both in shooting and in the lab. Stephen Mirrione's editing, which gives Traffic a beautifully modulated overall shape, is characterized on a moment-to-moment basis by jump cuts and jagged rhythms. Overall result is far too stylized to call the approach verite, but pic looks far more caught-on-the-run, and therefore far less staged, than all but a few other American films."[3]
Mirrione subsequently edited all three of the Ocean's films directed by Soderbergh and starring
Ocean's Eleven (2001), Ocean's Twelve (2004), and Ocean's Thirteen (2007)), as well as The Informant! (2009) and Contagion
(2011).
Mirrione won an
Academy Award. He has been nominated four times for BAFTA Awards for editing Traffic, 21 Grams (also directed by Inarritu – 2003), Good Night, and Good Luck (directed by George Clooney
-2005), and for Babel.
Mirrione has been selected for membership in the American Cinema Editors.[4]
