When it was released, The Diving Bell and the Butterfly was universally praised for its unflinching look at the real-life struggles of a man suffering from "locked-in" syndrome, trapped in his own body. In Episode 48, we're discussing this harrowing (and surprisingly fun) movie, originally released to audiences on November 30, 2007.

The Diving Bell and the Butterfly was directed by Julian Schnabel from a screenplay by Ronald Harwood, based on the Jean-Dominique Bauby's memoir of the same name, and starred Mathieu Amalric, Emmanuelle Seigner, Anne Consigny, Marie-Josée Cross, and Max von Sydow.
