hi and welcome back to movies explained where we recap your favorite movies for you today we will be recapping a movie in which a guy gains the powers to stop time as he wishes to so without further Ado let's begin Ben Willis thinks that it takes 500 pounds to crush a human skull but human emotions are much more delicate than this Susie is his first real girlfriend and his first real breakup is happening right in front of him he never thinks that this can be like a car crash just then he slams the brakes and
he is skidding towards an emotional impact he questions himself if it was all his fault he thinks that it is funny what goes through one's mind in these times they have spent two and a half years together and he thinks about the promises they have made to each other the holidays they have taken with her parents and things they have bought together he says that it is his last year in the art college and in the weeks that follow the breakup he is trying to figure out what has gone wrong and why they have to
go on the separate paths he says that it is funny now he thinks about the past and the reason seems to be very small Sue Susie says that she loves him one day and she is with someone else on the next day probably saying the same thing he questions himself if she had ever loved him and what is love anyway he sees her in the college Cafe with her new boyfriend Steve Jenkins and Ben thinks is this really that fleeting Ben takes his food to an empty table and thinks that he should probably stop thinking
about her as she has dumped him for a loser like Steve Jenkins Ben's friend Sean comes to his table and asks him if Susie had dumped him Ben replies that she is always worrying about the grass being greener on the opposite side likewise she is always worrying about being a better party to go to or a better boyfriend to be with he summarizes by saying that he has always felt like he is not capable of keeping her happy Sean suggests him to go for a more beautiful girl than Susie to take revenge back on her
Ben then asks him what his love and Sean remembers all the times he has been slapped in the art class they are asked to draw a naked man but band looks at a beautiful girl sitting in front of him and starts sketching her the art teacher looks at the sketch and says that he should be catching the person standing right in front of him so Ben stopped sketching and feels himself uninterested in the task he gets up and looks at the eye sketch of Susie he has made and thinks that how she is still here
even after leading him he calls Susie and she says that she is asleep and why he has been calling her Ben says that he is sorry and is there any chance they can get back together but Susie refuses to give him any chance then asks her if she has been living with Steve and she answers positively this hurts Ben and makes him feel helpless so he takes off their pictures and thinks that how it is hard to think about someone you love to be with someone else he picks up the lighter and intends to burn
those pictures but then he stops after his breakup with Susie he cannot sleep anymore he tries almost every possible way to fall asleep but fails to do so he tries to keep himself busy by watching TV and reading books but he is not able to get Susie out of his mind he goes to a grocery store and gets to know that he is getting short of money and sees an ad for a worker for the night shift he fills the form and goes to the owner's office the owner Jenkins seems to be very happy and
says that he is ideal person for this job he starts working the night shift at sainsbury and reflects back about the first year of his art college which was particularly boring he thought about how he always wanted to be a painter and thinks that women feel to be really a great inspiration one of the workers in the sainsbury is Barry who thinks of himself a bit of Daredevil stuntman he is quite famous because of one of his bike tricks that went wrong and the video was then uploaded on the internet Matt is also a worker
there and Matt and Barry are good friends he tells them that his breakup with Susie has left him with a sense that time has become unhinged and he is drifting between imagination and reality he has not been sleeping for two weeks he imagines that time has stopped and he has control over it and he can stop it whenever he wants to he thinks that in this Frozen world he can walk freely and unnoticed and nobody would have any hint that time has stopped he imagines the time to be stopped and sees a beautiful girl standing
in the lane he wonders how someone can be this beautiful and he stands there to stare at her for long time he thinks that he gets the inspiration from the female's nakedness and it all started when he was very young and sees a Swedish girl in his house all naked for the first time he thinks back how he once met a girl who dreamed to have an affair with an artist so he could notice every curve and line on her body he then thinks that if the girls would mind him seeing them naked he stops
the time and sketches their naked bodies and when he wants to resume the time he will crack his fingers Sean comes to his place and asks him if he had been feeling any better or if he had any progress about Susie Ben denies about having any betterment and thinks back how every morning Sean comes by and every morning they talk about the same thing Ben then adds that he is bored of repeating the same thing and feeling [ __ ] about it Sean tries to comfort Ben by saying that he is going to feel like
this for a while and then it is going to take time Sean then asks Ben if he didn't know what may help to speed up the process Ben thinks about him and Sean who have been friends since they are five years old and they live across the street from one another and have grown up together one day when he and Sean are at his home Sean offers Ben to show him something he shows Sean a magazine full of girls pictures with no clothes on Ben then thinks about the Swedish student being naked at his home
Ben gets out of his thoughts and asks Sean what will help speed up the process Sean suggests him to distract himself with a couple of natalies Ben thinks about the Natalie and it is a term that Sean has coined for any sexual encounter that happens with a girl you are not in a relationship with the term has come from a girl called Natalie who lives across the street from Sean Natalie becomes one of the most popular girls on the street and Ben thinks that it is funny how the same word for the feeling of Attraction
can be used for the feeling of disappointment as well the Oxford English Dictionary States one of the meanings for the word crush is as a strong and unreasoning but transitory attachment he remembers the three crushes he had when he was young the first one was an athlete Zola Bud she was 18 and looked like a tomboy with a small slender frame in the 3000 meters race Zola Budd clashed with the American Mary Decker and and Zola finishes seventh the second Crush has his biology teacher Mrs Booth but the main Crush he had was on a
girl named Tanya green Ben thinks about the time when he was young and he looked at Tanya and he just didn't see her only he felt her as well he recalls when one day Tanya caused a lot of excitement in the class when adding fracture on her arm after falling from a swing and her cast had caused much excitement amongst the other kids at the school but he sees it differently the thing that attracts Ben was the way Tanya dealt with it the way she scratched an itch and the way it restricted her movements how
the increasing amount of graffiti that appeared on the cast during the six-week lifespan then reminisces the moment when Tanya came to him in the class and asked him to sign it Ben then remembers the day when the cast finally came off and Tanya's arm was covered in hair but while the other kids joked about it and called her monkey it only heightens Ben's Fascination for her he remembered going to Tanya and asking her to not cry and comforting her by saying that she does not have to worry about them Ben then complimented her by saying
that he thinks that she is beautiful the way she is he then asks Tanya if she will be his girlfriend Tanya nods and Ben asks her to come to the place behind the school where he often goes to buy himself Tanya comes there but Ben goes away by saying to meet him there at 11. 0 a.m next day Ben thinks that how he often comes to play around the school grounds on a Saturday The Familiar building so unfamiliar in its quietness peaceful as if time had Frozen still Tanya does not come and after some days
Ben gets to know that Tanya's parents have taken her on a surprise holiday to America and that they have set up home there and she will never return Ben says that it was the first time his heart felt the other meaning of the crush Ben says that he often wonders what it will be like to spend the rest of his life with the world on the pause and to live out the rest of his life between two fractions of a second or to die of old age and then time continues he thinks that how it
will be like if the youngin was gone and a dead old man is in his place he questions himself if he was spending too much time in the Frozen world but you can concludes that it feels safe and Untouchable but he then questions how safe is anyone's World Ben takes Sharon out on a date and asks Sharon if she ever had a boyfriend Sharon says that they have split six months ago as he goes to a university in the States now and it became impossible for them to see each other Sharon then asks him if
he had a girlfriend and Ben replies that they have broken up a few weeks ago Ben then asks Sharon about her major and Sharon answers him telling that she is studying Spanish and this surprises Ben Sharon tells that she has lived all her life here and she slowly feels like that her life is ticking away a second at a time so she thinks that Spanish will be one way that she will be able to find a job that will involve traveling she further adds that being an air hostess or teaching English at Spanish-speaking schools can
help her to fulfill her dreams as she always dreamed of traveling into far-off places like South America to places where the sun kisses every morning she then says that more than that she wants to be able to talk to people about their lives and about their dreams her dream makes Ben surprised and happy and he's says that she has her dream and knowing what one wants is half the battle as most people go through their whole lives not knowing what they want moreover he tells her that it is easier to find if you know what
you're looking for Sharon asks Ben what is it he is looking for and Ben replies that he always wanted to be a painter and hoping for his work to be hung in a gallery one day Sharon says that she always wants to meet a painter and she thinks it may be something to do with their ability to see Beauty in everything and to capture it and hang it on a wall for everyone to see and that she finds it romantic Finn walks her home and thanked her for sharing her dreams with him Ben and Sharon
talks about Jenkins birthday which is on Saturday and how he is throwing a party and that they have to be there apparently Jenkins asks Ben to arrange a stripper for the party and Ben takes Sean's help and arranges one later Ben thinks that he has slowly stopped thinking about Susie and has dragged himself into the present the extra eight hours of his life have done nothing to slow the effect of time the minutes flow into hours the hours into days and the days joins the fast Rushing River of time Ben thinks that the bad news
is that time flies and the good news is that you're the pilot but during most of his shifts he thinks about Sharon and he draws her endlessly over and over Ben thinks about her pale milky skin and her delicate frame and her eyes in which she can see the world Ben thinks about Sharon traveling to South America pursuing her dreams and also thinks about asking Sharon if he could go with her so both of them can share her Dream of Loving people and his love of painting them Ben thinks that Sharon has broken the spell
as for the first time in weeks and he finally sleeps Ben gets a call from Alex prop from the prop Gallery he is informed that they have seen some of his work at the University yesterday and he will be very interested in putting on a show of his latest Works Alex asks him to bring some more samples of his work down to Proud gallery and Ben agrees to the offer Ben then goes to pick Sharon for the party in the evening and gets mesmerized after seeing her Ben tells her about the gallery interested in showing
his work and Sharon congratulates him they reached the party and after some time Ben sees Susie and introduces her to Sharon Susie asks him what is he doing there as it is Steve's brother's party and Ben tells her that Jenkins is their boss Sharon then goes to wish Jenkins a happy birthday and when she comes back Ben is not there Ben is in the loop when Susie comes there and says that she has been missing him and that she is sorry as she can never make him happy Sharon looks for him around and sees him
