PERFECT BLUE: Cutting on Action

Satoshi Kon's mind bending, psychological thriller creates such interesting themes & story arcs primarily through its bombastic and quick-cut style of editing. In this video essay, I dissect that style and its effect on Perfect Blue.

P.S. apologies for the lack of audio sync in the Satoshi Kon interview. It's the only video interview of his I could find that discussed editing in PERFECT BLUE. Said video already came with poor audio sync, so it was beyond my control to fix. I hope it doesn't detract from his words.
