Reaction to The Diving Bell and The Butterfly

“The Diving Bell and The Butterfly” was a french film done through the eyes of another.  How we saw the film was through Jean-Dominique, who had a stroke and was in the hospital.  I liked how the scenes were cut and how they portrayed the way he saw things. The lens shutter flashed as if he was blinking which was pretty cool.  The director put some cool aesthetics in, like when Jean-Dominique was being wheel chaired through the hospital to go see the mother of his children, he saw his reflection for the first time as he was passing by windows and glass doors, he saw himself very briefly each time but he could tell that he looked completely different.
