When the engine just quits without warning, often it is because of a bad timing belt. If, for example, the engine is leaking oil in front and you were gearing down when it died, I'd suspect this. (Oily timing belts soften and loose teeth.)

Engine is turning over quickly but the distributor rotor and cam shaft aren't rotating implies timing belt.
