🎙️On this episode of the Kingdom of Dreams Podcast, I sit down with acclaimed editor Byron Smith to discuss his work on the Apple TV+ crime drama Lucky.
Byron takes us behind the editing process and explores how the series blends crime and suspense with complicated family relationships at its core. We discuss shaping those emotional dynamics through the edit, balancing tension with character-driven moments, and how Annette Bening’s character becomes a pivotal part of that family story.
It’s a fascinating conversation about editing, performance, family, and finding the emotional heart within a crime drama.
