Bird in Hand presents an evening with acclaimed Sound Designer and Picture Editor Walter Murch, in celebration of his new book!

Suddenly Something Clicked: The Languages of Film Editing and Sound Design will change the way you watch movies. It’s an exciting masterclass on films and how they are made, from the triple-Oscar winner of the Godfather films, Apocalypse Now and The English Patient.

Join us at Bird in Hand for this special evening with Walter Murch himself, reflecting on the six decades of cinematic history he has been a considerable contributor to – and on what makes great films great.

Together with Francis Coppola and George Lucas, Murch abandoned Hollywood in 1969 and moved to San Francisco to create the Zoetrope studio. Their vision was of a new kind of cinema for a new generation of film-goers. Murch’s subsequent contributions in film editing rooms and sound-mixing theatres were responsible for ground-breaking technical and creative innovations.
