the diving bell and the butterfly


i watched this movie a couple of nights ago after having read the book a couple of years ago. and even though i knew the story, i was struck by it all over again.

it is an incredibly sad and inspirational true story.  the film is shot beautifully, highlighting life joys by accentuating them and providing the perspective to glimpse into what living becomes without them.

both the book and the movie are an ode to the power of imagination, determination and gratitude.
