I noticed that Roderick Jaynes was nominated for an Oscar for editing for No Country for Old Men. At this Oscar party I was at, someone insisted that he doesn't really exist, and it's the Coen Bros. who do the editing. Is that true.
--Quenton
That's a good question, "Quenton!" It is generally believed that "Roderick Jaynes" is a pseudonym the Coen Brothers use for an editing credit when they edit their own films. In fact, however, Roderick Jaynes is a publicity-shy, elderly, veteran editor who enjoys, with the brothers, pulling the wool over the public's eyes in this fashion. One thing to remember, while they like to come off as clueless dorks, the Coen Brothers are extremely clever and will always be one step ahead of you and the general public.
