Open Movie Editor

Open Movie Editor is a pretty self explanatory, open source movie editor. You can get it here (http://www.openmovieeditor.org/). I tried compiling/installing it from source last night, managed to get it installed after compiling a few dependencies, then when I tried to execute it it gave me an error, some shared library missing or something, that should've been installed with one of the dependencies. So, unless you know what that problem could be and know how to fix it, If you're on Ubuntu if you want to get it installed quickly and easily then just type: sudo aptitude install openmovieeditor in a terminal to install it. It's also in Debian and OpenSUSE repositories.

Right now OME is only available for Linux, the developers are looking for people to port it to OS X and possibly Windows (the only reason there's no OS X version is that the developer doesn't have access to an Apple Mac :S). I guess porting to OS X would be easier than windows as OS X is pretty similar to Linux anyway, at it's core.
