The Dogs of War

The Dogs of War is a 1980 American war film based upon the 1974 novel of the same name by Frederick Forsyth. Largely filmed in Belize, it was directed by John Irvin and starred Christopher Walken and Tom Berenger. In it a small mercenary unit of soldiers is privately hired to depose the president of a fictional African country modeled after Guinea-Bissau, Guinea-Conakry, Equatorial Guinea and Angola (as they were in the late 1970s), so that a British tycoon can gain access to a platinum deposit.[3] The title is based on a phrase from William Shakespeare's play Julius Caesar: "Cry, 'Havoc!', and let slip the dogs of war."

An editor's job is to cut (or aid in cutting) the film into the desired length and order of scenes to tell the story or create the necessary feeling for the film. But they're often unsung heroes of filmmaking. Here's a little light shed on the men and women who help make hours of footage comprehensible.
