Editing the use of time in films is one of the most important edits in films. For example, the use of slow-motion is a really powerful edit. Many films use slow-motion to show emotion, such as in a race. Slow-motion can also be used in fight scenes to show the reactions of people.
Sometimes, film is sped up. In the old days of film, many silent comedies would show characters running away from something and would normally speed it up. It is quite rare in modern film to see films being sped up, however, the ocassional comedy might use this editing technique.
Screen time is a period of time represented by events within a film.
Flashbacks are also very common in films. These are used to show a past event in someones life. Many crime films will show the character comitting a past crime.
