Summary: do editors dream of digital moviolas?
Comment: I belive it is very hard to write a book on film editing, maybe the best way to teach this is with a video or in an actual class. But this book does acomplish a couple of interesting things. You will love to read the "blink of an eye" theory in this book.
I really recomend this book to get the feeling that a great editor has on the whole cuting business.
His final words on film editing on compuder sistems are a little behind, because his book is like 7 years old. Finaly I belive his questioning to the NLE systems really makes you realize what you are missing on your final cut or premiere system.
Buy this book.

Summary: Murch masterfully edits film as the rest of us dream dreams.
Comment: One of the greatest image and aural montagists of our time is Walter Murch. What makes films like Apocalypse Now, The English Patient, The Unbearable Lightness of Being, or Julia great, just to name a few of Mr. Murch's masterpieces, is often the mostly invisible flow of time and mood. In this book Murch takes us inside the metaphysics of editing film and sound in a most understandable way. Any lover of film will appreciate the different sensibility and perspective than that we usually get from actors and directors. Any would be film editor better read this book to have any chance of rising above mediocrity.

Summary: From a film editor
Comment: OK I can't believe the guy who was looking for tips on how to put a scene together. I have been a film and commercial editor for 25 years and Mr. Murch's work is what all who have ever wanted to be an editor look up to. The joy of this book is that it doesn't delve into the nuts and bolts of editing-which is the worst part of my craft-but it focuses on the zen of editing, which is the true joy. I have had the opportunity to cut nine feature films in my life and before I started each one, I read "In the Blink of an Eye" to get me back in that feature film mindframe. God Bless Mr. Murch for his insights. As a fellow editor-and I struggle to live up to the bar you have raised for us-I can only bow down and thank Mr. Murch for passing on his knowledge to us.
