But there\u2019s one sequence the film that critics and audiences have singled out as a standout: the stomach-churning, incredibly suspenseful road chase along a winding desert highway path that serves as the film\u2019s tense climax. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe road, man,\u201d Luke Lynch, editor of \u201cBLKNWS: Terms &amp; Conditions,\u201d told \u201cOne Battle\u201d editor Andy Jurgensen during IndieWire\u2019s Editors craft roundtables. \u201cI mean, it\u2019s just a road, but it\u2019s playing with lenses and movement and timing and the suspense that you\u2019re building.\u201d<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiewire.com\/criticism\/movies\/the-dutchman-review-1235103329\/\" title=\"\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-card-index=\"0\" data-post-id=\"1235103329\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/The-Dutchman.jpeg\" alt=\"The Dutchman\" height=\"168\" width=\"300\"   loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"auto\" data-attachment-id=\"1235103894\" data-wp-size=\"nova_size__sixteenbynine_small_cropped\"\/><\/a>  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiewire.com\/awards\/results\/makeup-hairstyling-awards-2025-nominations-1235170114\/\" title=\"\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-card-index=\"1\" data-post-id=\"1235170114\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/MCDONBA_WB028.jpg\" alt=\"ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER, Chase Infiniti, 2025. &#xA9; Warner Bros. \/ Courtesy Everett Collection\" height=\"168\" width=\"300\"   loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"auto\" data-attachment-id=\"1235164726\" data-wp-size=\"nova_size__sixteenbynine_small_cropped\"\/><\/a> <\/p>\n<p>Jurgensen and Lynch spoke about their respective films at IndieWire\u2019s Editing Craft Roundtable, hosted by IndieWire features writer Jim Hemphill. Also in attendance were the editors behind \u201cHamnet,\u201d \u201cDead Man\u2019s Wire,\u201d \u201cA House of Dynamite,\u201d and \u201cSpringsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere,\u201d who spoke about the challenges and accomplishments of assembling their films.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking on his work behind the car chase sequence, Jurgensen said that the sequence was difficult to cut down. To get it to the right length, he relied a lot on the sound department\u2019s input to figure out the right rhythm for the shots.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou know, there\u2019s a lot of footage, we shot from all the different perspectives,\u201d Jurgensen said during the roundtable. \u201cI made selects, was just choosing the best things. It was really long for the longest time. Sending it to the sound department early helped a lot, because we could kind of give each of the cars their own sound, as their own character. So even though it was really long, then I could just take that really long sequence and chop it up and still use their stems to kind of still have that same feeling, the layering on that sort of orchestra sound going  up and down over some of the different hill sounds. So it was just fine-tuning till the very last day of the mix.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>For more from all of our craft roundtables, click\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiewire.com\/t\/craft-roundtables\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cOne Battle After Another\u201d is a film littered with great moments, from the captivating prologue that Teyana Taylor&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":207446,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[126574,156,593,409,111,139,69,26870,416],"class_list":["post-207445","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-craft-roundtables","tag-entertainment","tag-film","tag-movies","tag-new-zealand","tag-newzealand","tag-nz","tag-one-battle-after-another","tag-video"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/207445","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=207445"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/207445\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/207446"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=207445"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=207445"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=207445"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
