The Diving Bell and the Butterfly (Le Scaphandre et le Papillon) France, 2007 ☆☆☆☆

The true story of Jean-Dominique Beauby, former Elle editor in Paris, who suffers from a stroke which leaves him completely paralyzed, except for his left eye. He is however able to write a book about his experience from which the movie is based. A really sad movie but superbly executed.
