Suspension. DVD Rip (2008)


















Suspension. DVD Rip (2008)

Plot and review: A man loses his family in an accident but gains an extraordinary power: The power to stop time.

Heartbreaking, terrifying, and utterly mesmerizing, “Suspension” is independent filmmaking at its jaw-dropping finest. Its makers have taken a familiar sci-fi premise - the power to stop time - and elevated it, building the sort of intelligent human drama that resides within the best genre work. They have crafted a series of visual effects that enhance, not merely replace, the story. They have created magnificent cinema. And they have done all of this on a tight budget, far removed from the Hollywood system.

(If any of you have ever read Nicholson Baker's "The Fermata" then you will understand how power corrupts).
