There's something to be said for being in the right place at the right time. Barbara Tulliver made her move to the cutting room quite by chance, starting in commercials and eventually assisting directors David Mamet and Milos Forman in the late '80s. When Mamet's regular editor was unavailable to work on Homicide, he offered Tulliver the job. Since then, she's edited a steady stream of films for the prolific director, including last year's State and Main and this year's Heist.
