LOS ANGELES --

Feature film winners at the 67th Motion Picture Sound Editors (MPSE) Golden Reel Awards included 1917 (Universal Pictures), Jojo Rabbit (Fox Searchlight), Rocketman (Paramount Pictures) Parasite (Neon) and Ford v Ferrari (Twentieth Century Fox). Held at the Bonaventure Hotel in L.A. on Sunday evening (1/19), the black-tie awards ceremony recognized outstanding achievement in sound editing across 23 categories encompassing feature films, long-form and short-form television, animation, documentaries, games, special venue and other media.

1917 topped the feature sound editing, dialogue/ADR category while Jojo Rabbit was honored for music underscore, Rocketman for sound editing in a musical, Parasite for sound editing in a foreign language feature, and Ford v Ferrari for its effects/foley work.

Academy Award-nominated producer (Little Women) Amy Pascal presented the 2020 MPSE Filmmaker Award to Marvel Studios EVP of production Victoria Alonso (with re-recording mixer Kevin O’Connell and supervising sound editor Steven Ticknor as honorary presenters). 

The 2020 MPSE Career Achievement Award was presented to Academy Award-winning supervising sound editor Cecelia “Cece” Hall by two-time Academy Award-winning supervising sound editor Stephen H. Flick.

The opening address was given by Mark Lanza, president-elect of the MPSE. “This is an exciting time for film, television, and games,” he said. “Business models, formats, and distribution are all changing. Original scripted TV shows have set a record in 2019. There were 532 original shows this year. This number is expected to surge in 2020. Our editors and supervisors are paving the way and making our product and the user experience better every year.”

Here’s a rundown of the evening’s winners.
