Anne Bauchens, born Roseanne Bauchens, (February 2, 1882 – May 7, 1967)[1] was an American film editor who is remembered for her collaboration over 40 years with the director Cecil B. DeMille. In 1940, she won the Academy Award for film editing.
Personal life
[edit | edit source]Originally Roseanne Bauchens, she was born in St. Louis, Missouri, to Otto Bauchens and Louella McKee. She had a brother named Harry. She never married.
Hollywood career
[edit | edit source]Bauchens was trained as an editor by DeMille,[2] and shared her first credit with him on the film Carmen (1915). Prior to 1918, DeMille had edited, as well as directed, his films.[3] After Carmen and We Can't Have Everything (1918), Bauchens no longer shared the editing credits with DeMille. She edited DeMille's films for the rest of their long careers, through the film The Ten Commandments (1956).
When the Academy Award for Best Film Editing was created in 1934, Bauchens received one of the three nominations for her editing of Cleopatra. She later won the Academy Award for North West Mounted Police (1940) and became the first woman to win the Oscar in that category. She was nominated for the Academy Award for Film Editing again twice, first for The Greatest Show on Earth (1952) and then for The Ten Commandments (1956). In total, Bauchens is credited with editing on 43 films directed by DeMille and on 20 films with other directors.[4]
Of DeMille, Bauchens said, "He is actually two men in one, all business and strict when he works, and a magnificently gracious and easy host when at leisure. He is a man whose judgment you respect, who knows what he wants, who has temperament and fire but is courteous and who can tell a story better than anyone else."[5]
In his autobiography, DeMille wrote:
I have seen unedited film, played by good actors, directed by a good director from a well-written script, utterly confusing and even meaningless on the screen, until it had passed through the hands of a skilled editor—one like Annie Bauchens.
"Annie B." has edited every one of my pictures since I made We Can't Have Everything in 1918. She will edit every one the Lord gives us time to make in the future. I believe she is the only film editor whose name is written into a producer's contract. […] In every contract I sign to produce a picture one essential clause is that Anne Bauchens will be its editor. That is not sentiment, or at least not only sentiment. She is still the best film editor I know.[6]
