2019 Oscar Predictions: FILM EDITING and CINEMATOGRAPHY (December)

Vice and Widows make moves into the top 5 for Film Editing after their BFCA noms but the top 10 in Cinematography doesn’t budge an inch. 

Guild nominations in both of these categories next month could change that. 

Here are my 2019 Oscar predictions in Film Editing for December 19, 2018.
