description John Jympson Overview
John Jympson is a British film editor whose credits include Richard Lester's A Hard Day's Night (1964), the Beatles feature that combines a fictionalized day in the group's life with musical performances. Jympson was also the original editor hired for George Lucas's Star Wars (1977). He was replaced during post-production, so the finished film is associated with a later editorial team rather than with a completed Jympson cut.
