| LISA GUNNING CUTS JOHN LENNON FILM |  |   | | LONDON - Editor Lisa Gunning recently cut the John Lennon biopic, Nowhere Boy, which premiered at the 53rd BFI London Film Festival. The film by Sam Taylor Wood chronicles Lennon’s youth and stars Kristin Scott Thomas and Aaron Johnson as Lennon. It will be distributed in the US through The Weinstein Company early next year.
| | (11/2/2009) | | |  Gunning and Wood worked together in the past on Wood’s short film, Love You More. This latest project looks at Lennon’s relationship with his mom and aunt, as well as his early encounters with Paul McCartney and George Harrison.
Stephen Haren, Billy A. Campbell, and Simon J. Brooks served as assistant editors on the film, which was scored by Goldfrapp’s Alison Goldfrapp and Will Gregory. It features a blend of music from the era.
Gunning, who is represented by The White House (www.whitehousepost.com) for commercial work, is set to begin work on a large-scale campaign for Liberty Mutual. She will also edit a short film, directed by RSA’s Dawn Shadforth.
