There is a way to pause the movie, and then resume ?

Yes, if you're talking about resuming watching the movie from a specific point, just make a movie savestate at the point you want to resume watching from, and the next time you play the movie, play it in read-only mode and load that savestate. The movie will resume playing from that point. If you're talking about resuming recording a movie, it's basically the same. First, make a movie savestate at the point you want to continue recording from. The next time you want to continue recording, play the movie with the read-only tag unchecked, and load that savestate.

No, because a movie is a continuous stream of keypresses bound to every frame of the movie. If you stop the movie, wait even a frame, and then somehow resume from the point you stopped, it will quickly desynchronize. However, if you save a state during the movie, then stop it, watch/play the game in normal mode, load the movie again and load the savestate you made, it will be just fine.
