Biography
Yorgos Mavropsaridis, born November 21, 1954, in Athens, Greece, is a Greek film editor known for his collaboration with director Yorgos Lanthimos. A London Film School graduate, he began editing commercials, where he met Lanthimos at a Greek advertising agency. Mavropsaridis has edited all of Lanthimos’ films, including Dogtooth (2009), The Lobster (2015), The Killing of a Sacred Deer (2017), The Favourite (2018), and Poor Things (2023). His minimal-cut editing style enhances narrative flow. He won a 2019 European Film Award for The Favourite and received Oscar nominations for Best Film Editing for The Favourite (2019) and Poor Things (2024). With over 70 projects, including Kinetta (2005), he is introverted, drawn to editing’s solitary nature. Lanthimos tried to replace him but couldn’t, as Mavropsaridis is integral to his vision, editing his work since their advertising days in Greece.
