"Beginnings of movies have got to be way above sensational. You have to establish style".(Jills commentary on her standard philosophy prior to sitting down to edit any film ).





  

Jill Bilcock is a world class editor. Dancing the Invisible gives a dry but insightful look at how a young girl, looking to make a mark in the art world fell into editing and became a master of her craft; giving films of the calibre of Muriel's Wedding, Romeo and Juliette and Moulin Rouge their polish. Baz Lurhman, Peter Weir, Bruce Beresford, Phil Noyce all prioritised Bilcock as their go-to editor as long as she was available. They all give glowing tributes. The Australian Film industry stood bright in the international spotlight due in no small way to Bilcock's sharp eye. Dancing the Invisible is a brilliant and riveting chronological traipse through Australian cinema history, Bilcock is the linch-pin. But then again I'm biased, I can never get enough Aussie flavour to my films. 9GUMS.
