One of the most remarkable fruits of this collaboration is the 2014 film Frank. This extraordinary musical comedy, starring Michael Fassbender, attracted great attention at festivals with its unique fictional rhythm. However, the point where Nugent's career really gained momentum was the film Room, also directed by Abrahamson. This intense drama, released in 2015 and starring Brie Larson, required extremely meticulous work in terms of editing.

This understanding has made him a reliable and creative partner for directors. Although he works quietly, his effects are always felt on the screen.
