"In 30 years as a Feature Film and Television editor and as a member of The Academy of Arts and Sciences, I can say that Mr. Alvarez is one of the most extremely competent and gifted editors that I have ever encountered. He is a story teller. He is one who I've seen work closely with the Director and Producers with a great spirit of creativity, collaboration, and under duress - he remained cool and collected - always with THE FILM'S best interest in mind. Never have I so unequivocally endorsed the abilities of a fellow editor, and Javier Alvarez is that rare exception."
