A good story is not one whose content is WOW. The art is in the story-telling not the action. The camera IS Bauby's eye, the only one he can see through. a camera is essentially one eye on set and we are able to see through that one eye, the same one being Bauby's.
Schnabel convinces us we ARE Bauby by using the camera in unique ways. We got the rare opportunity to experience the real human that is in every one of us.
The material here IS depressing but you are immediately thrown into the mind of Bauby, who never asks for sympathy, yet never ignores the struggles he goes through. The characters presented are so real and humanistic. The Diving Bell and the Butterfly truly is an experience. The material here IS depressing but you are immediately thrown into the mind of Bauby, who never asks for Wow, I was blown away by this movie.
