"The Diving Bell and the Butterfly" is a visual interesting movie. Many of the scenes are shot from the point of view of the main character who has limited movement of his head and eye. This trick succeeds in conveying the issolation of the character. The use of flashbacks reinforces the tragidy by contrasting his current life with the vivaciousness left behind.
The performances are top notch. The ex-wife's pain and dedication are poignant. The father's performance, although brief, is one of the most touching I've seen.
