70th Motion Picture Sound Editors (MPSE) Golden Reel Awards: ‘Top Gun: Maverick,’ ‘Elvis,’ ‘The Banshees of Inisherin’ lead film wins
The Motion Picture Sound Editors (MPSE) revealed their winners for its 70th annual Golden Reel Awards in categories spanning feature film, television, animation, video games, music and student productions with Top Gun: Maverick, Elvis and The Banshees of Inisherin leading the film winners list.
Top Gun: Maverick won the Feature/Foley award while Elvis took the Music Editing prize. Both are nominated for Best Sound at the Oscars, which used to be two categories that separated sound into mixing and editing. The Banshees of Inisherin was a big upset in the feature dialogue/ADR category over its Oscar-nominated counterparts.
Everything Everywhere All At Once topped the nominations with three but went home empty-handed.
Stranger Things season four and The Bear were among the winners for television.
The 70th Annual Golden Reel Awards took place at the Wilshire Ebell Theatre in Los Angeles where Tom Cruise presented the MPSE Filmmaker award to Jerry Bruckheimer. The MPSE Career Lifetime Achievement award given to Gwendolyn Yates Whittle MPSE.
