Life Hesitates at 40

(1935) - B&W - 21 min
Starring - Charley Chase, Carl "Alfalfa" Switzer, Brooks Benedict, James Finlayson, Joyce Compton
Directed by - Charley Chase

Life Hesitates at 40 is a terrific short film where Charley Chase has a weird affliction - it seems time can just stop for him and he imagines things happening as if frozen in time. Lots of goofy situations - check out this early time warp relativity flick - made a long time before The Matrix.
