Most editors are familiar with the happy little accidental cuts that almost create themselves as we work, which I called accidental editing in an earlier post. For me, it is always an exciting moment of discovery; the voice in my head says, "did you see that?" While I find these anomalies happen more in the early stages of a cut, when one works more loosely, they can occur at any time, keeping the editor of all people on the edge of his/her seat.
