The Diving Bell and the Butterfly - a 2007 movie directed by Julian Schnabel (painter-director), written by Ronald Harwood; starring Mathieu Amalric (French actor). It’s based on Le Scaphandre et le Papillon (the French memoir) by Jean-Dominique Bauby.
Elle France editor - Bauby, who at the age of 43, back in 1995, suffered a stroke - paralyzing his whole body, except the left eye. So, using that eye, blinking out his memoir, Jean-Dominique Bauby described quite eloquently his interior world aspects, from the psychological pain of being trapped in his body to some imagined stories taken from lands he’d visited only with his mind.
Let your imagination set you free…
