Have you tried creating a ‘new’ file or opening a different file?
Are you just having trouble with that one particular scene?

Sounds like it’s probably a corrupt file then… Last bet might be to try opening the file on a different machine…
In the future, I’d recommend you save multiple backups or incremental saves though.
