Because the movie takes place in such a cramped location the importance of editing is made more obvious. Trying to keep up the energy of the film falls more heavily on the editor in this film than in most. In addition to that the film relies pretty extensively on tri-split screen, and keeping three images in aesthetic unison is no small task. The editing is also something of a masterpiece in keeping the film so short. Just long enough to give the film an emotional impact while not becoming tedious.
