morph cut isn't working

I'm trying to apply a morph cut to hide the jump cut in this clip. It's just a talking head interview clip (shot on a tripod). The clip is about 3 seconds so it should be long enough. It wont even let me toggle the effect because it remains greyed out

If  you drop morph cut just on a cut in a single file it wont work.

(actually it does work but you are not seeing it as it uses the same frames)

You need to have handles: cut needs to be trimmed back on one or both sides.

Ann is right, and it's one of those things that many users don't realize. Not obvious, either.
