  Sci Fi Wire -- The News Service of the Sci Fi Channel
Jamie Selkirk, editor of The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, told SCI FI Wire that the final three-hour, 20-minute movie was trimmed down from an earlier cut that ran more than four and a half hours.
"It was really difficult, because we had a lot of very key stuff to actually still get in within the story," Selkirk said in an interview.
After the film's climax, there is still a 20-minute denouement, which Selkirk thought was a first for Hollywood movies.

The epic fantasy earned the shaggy-haired Jackson the award for best director, and claimed trophies for best original film score and favorite song with "Into the West," making it a winner in each category in which it was nominated.
"Lord of The Rings" co-producer Jamie Selkirk, singled out in Jackson's acceptance speech, said the awards were just reward for Jackson, who spent seven years making the Rings trilogy.
The Golden Globe awards were hopefully a sign the film would receive "a good array" of nominations for the Oscars, said Selkirk, who is also co-owner of Weta Workshops, which designed and made the films.

The art of editing and advances in edit systems were the topics foremost on the minds of the Oscar-nominated editors participating in the fourth annual Invisible Art/Visible Artists seminar organized by American Cinema Editors.
Selkirk said waiting for finished shots of the digital spider Shelob until the very end of production made it extraordinarily difficult to cut the scene for acting since his footage merely showed the actors rolling around on bluescreen pretending to interact with the gargantuan spider.
