Some saw Ottman as the key to the Queen biopic’s success. A viral Twitter video suggests otherwise.
John Ottman won the Academy Award for film editing for “Bohemian Rhapsody.” By Tim Greiving March 4 at 4:33 PM If film editing is an “invisible art,” then the Academy Award for best editing really goes to the “most invisible” editor.John Ottman won for editing the Queen biopic “Bohemian Rhapsody,” a film notorious for its dramatic production.
The remainder of the film was shot by Dexter Fletcher — who directed the upcoming Elton John film “Rocketman” — although Singer retained director credit. “Bohemian Rhapsody,” while panned by many critics as trite and generic, became a box-office juggernaut — taking in more than $850 million worldwide and earning numerous awards, including a Golden Globe for best drama and four Oscars.
Unlike for Singer’s previous, visual-effects-heavy films, Ottman started working on “Bohemian Rhapsody” after principal photography began. Also, unlike other films, he worked away from the set. “It reminded me of ‘The Usual Suspects,’ because every single one of them is cast perfectly, and they all have sort of this symbiosis with each other,” he said of the film’s ensemble. “And that’s just a dream for me. So as agonizing as editing is — you know, I think it’s an awful lifestyle — it gets you through when you’re really inspired by the material.”
