[Grammar] This movie is interesting me....?

[pseudo]

s1. This movie is interesting.

I have seen a lot of sentences like s1.
It represents the speaker's thinking or view.
I think he must have seen the movie.

s2. This movie is interesting me.

But I have rarely seen sentences like s2.
It is a present progressive sentence.
I think probably he haven't seen the movie.

Can we use a sentence like s2?
And does it have the meaning I wrote?

Thank you in advance!
Have a nice day!

This movie interests me.
I find this movie interesting.

Is the verb 'interest' stative?
Can't it be used for present progressive?

It's very unnatural with "xxx is interesting me" although not entirely impossible.

If someone is watching a film and they want to make a statement halfway through about how interesting or otherwise they are finding the film, they might say "This film is holding my interest so far".
