Kathryn Bigelow's The Hurt Locker was voted the best edited feature film (drama) by the American Cinema Editors on Sunday night. Previously, The Hurt Locker won awards from the Producers Guild, the Directors Guild, and the Art Directors Guild. James Cameron's super blockbuster Avatar has thus far won only one guild award, for art direction in the "fantasy" category.
Bob Murawski and Chris Innis were The Hurt Locker's Eddie Award recipients for their tension-building work. Other motion picture Eddie Award winners were The Hangover (Debra Neil-Fisher) in the comedy or musical category, Up (Kevin Nolting) for animated feature, and The Cove (Geoffrey Richman) for best-edited documentary.
Among the television winners were the made-for-TV movie Grey Gardens (Alan Heim and Lee Percy), the "ABQ" episode from Breaking Bad (Lynne Willingham), the "Apollo Apollo" episode from 30 Rock (Ken Eluto), and the "Living the Dream" episode from Dexter (Stewart Schill).
Additionally, Paul LaMastra and Neil Travis were given Career Achievement Awards, and Rob Reiner was the recipient of the Golden Eddie Award.
