Editing and time in film

In film, editing is where time becomes malleable—the length of a shot shapes how you feel it, the collision of images creates meaning that neither image held alone, and rhythm can make you believe in emotional truths the plot alone wouldn't support. Understanding editing is understanding that cinema works not through what happens, but through how duration and juxtaposition shape perception.
