When working with a director like Paul Thomas Anderson, it’s important to be ready to pivot to whatever will work best for the scene. As a frequent collaborator of Anderson’s, and the previous editor of Licorice Pizza, editor Andy Jurgensen knows how to best be “fluid” in his work to match his director’s sensibilities.
One Battle After Another follows Bob, played by Leonardo DiCaprio, an ex-revolutionary on a journey to rescue his daughter Willa (Chase Infiniti) from an old enemy. With a mix of genres making up the film, Jurgensen had his work cut out for him to balance everything and create the right tone for the satirical dark comedy.
