carcrash kills wife and son of a man (car 1) and boyfriend of girl (car 2); resulting broken camera whose pauze-button from that moment on freezes time is used by him to unsuccessfully court her
Seldom did a character appeal so quickly to me. Friendly, bit shy, yet not stupid and readily accepting the strange phenomenon that he witnesses. Though the story slows down after a while, it does create a simple yet elegant and believable character arc (I actively start to abhor this phrase).
SFX guys did sometimes do a bit of a sloppy job on the freeze-time moments during which the eyes of aforementioned girl vibrated quickly horizontally: the tiny red veins in the corner of her eyes stayed steady. At least I know where my nystachmus comes from.
