And I watched...

Le scaphandre et le papillon (2007) most known in English as The Diving Bell and The Butterfly.


This movie is the true story of Elle editor Jean-Dominique Bauby who suffers a stroke and has to live with an almost totally paralyzed body; only his left eye isn't paralyzed.

I am not claustrophobic but this movie made me uncomfortable at times because you just want to speak for him since he is narrating the story. It's touching, troubling and because it's true is even more amazing. What a story! What he accomplished while trapped inside his own body is out of this world. If you haven't seen it...worth watching!
