“Time Stands Still” tells the story of Sarah, a photojournalist recuperating from injuries incurred while covering the war in Iraq, and her partner James, a foreign correspondent shell-shocked from the horrors of the war and guilt-ridden from having returned to the United States shortly before Sarah’s accident. Sarah and James work to reestablish a bit of normalcy in their lives but find themselves moving inescapably in two different directions, finding how difficult it is to erase the past. Margulies’s drama cleverly contrasts Sarah and James’ relationship with that of their good friend Richard, a news magazine editor, and Mandy, his much-younger, very naïve, and slightly dopey new girlfriend.
