The American Cinema Editors handed out the Eddie Awards on Friday (Jan. 26). Oscar watchers were in attendance for the ceremony at the Beverly Hilton as they are keenly aware that Ace is aces as one of the best indicators of which film takes home the Best Picture Oscar
Since 1990, the film that came up with an Ace went on to win the top prize at the Academy Awards 17 times. And in seven of the 10 years when the Ace barometer was wrong, the Eddie champ was at least a contender for Best Picture, including last year when both the drama winner (“Arrival”) and the comedy/musical champ (“La La Land”) were among the eight Best Picture nominees that lost the top Oscar to “Moonlight.”

The American Cinema Editors guild, which hands out its awards on Jan. 26, has a good track record as a preview of the Oscar winner for Best Picture (17 out of the last 27) and a great one for forecasting who will win the Film Editing Oscar (20 of the last 27). And, not surprisingly, it is also fairly prescient when it comes to predicting the five Film Editing Oscar nominations.
In 1992, the Eddies went from three to five nominees (matching that of the Oscars) and in 2000 it split the award in two, with five nominees for each of drama and comedy/musical. Over the past 25 years, 110 of the 125 Oscar nominees for Film Editing had first reaped a Golden Eddie bid; that is an accuracy rate of 88%.
