Editor, Jeff Groth ACE Cherry editor, Jeff Groth ACE had a tough act of his own to follow, coming off of his ACE Eddie and Oscar nominated work on Todd Phillips' Joker, but follow it he did with his old friends, directors Joe and Anthony Russo.  The Russo brothers turned to Jeff for his editorial expertise in adapting Nico Walker's 2018 novel of the same name into a cinematic experience both stylized and surreal.  Starring Tom Holland (Cherry) and Ciara Bravo (Emily), the film follows a veteran Army medic with PTSD who resorts to robbing banks to support his opioid addiction. We first met Jeff when he had just finished cutting Todd Phillip's critical and audience favorite, Joker.   Having worked previously with Philips on such films as The Hangover III and War Dogs,  with Joker Jeff not only started making a name for himself as an editor to be recognized, but also proved his mettle as a filmmaker who could deftly craft stories about complex characters and their descent into desperation; a skill that came in quite handy on the dark and delicate aspects of Cherry.
