The Mind is Strong Above All Things

In Nov. 30’s The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, 2007 Cannes Film Festival Best Director Julian Schnabel depicts the “truly remarkable true story” of Jean-Dominique “Jean-Do” Bauby (Mathieu Almaric), the high-flying editor of French Elle and father of two, a man renowned for his sense of humor and style and his joie de vivre and amorous energy – a man who, in the blink of an eye, saw his life change forever.

If the evocative trailer is any indication, this will be a very, very good film.

Parts Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, parts The Sea Inside, I cannot wait to see it.
