Day 36 continued - The Diving Bell and the Butterfly (French)

The Diving Bell and the Butterfly (2007) Poster
"The true story of Elle editor Jean-Dominique Bauby who suffers a stroke and has to live with an almost totally paralyzed body; only his left eye isn't paralyzed."
 
The reviews for this movie are very positive but for me this movie was completely boring with little value. The first few minutes of the film are completely annoying with poor camera techniques. There is no real heart in this film and I felt nothing from or for any of the characters present in the film. It shows us a kind of dull feeling that you really don't want to see. I suggest you skip this film and maybe watch The Intouchables.
 
1/5
 
little info
Johnny Deep was originally casted as Jean-Dominique Bauby but he pulled out because of Pirates of the Carribean At World's End.
 
 The director successfully got the studio to allow her to shot the film in French in order to stay true with the character. She actually learned French in order to make this film.
