the diving bell and the butterfly
watch it, this movie is incredible.
set in 1997 when the french editor of elle magazine had a stroke and wrote a book with a translator reading him the alphabet and him blinking yes with his left eye and filmed through his view point, the man can't speak, he is completely paralyzed, but his brain is still functioning...amazing. i have never appreciated the art of speech before in my life. how frustrating would it be to have everything done for you, when you are capable to say what you want with your mind, but it can't come out in words; which channel you want the tv, where you want to go, how you want to show emotion, etc.
this is one of the best movies i have ever seen.
