Director: Julian Schnabel (Basquiat, only other movie is Before Night Falls which I've never seen)
Stars: Mathieu Amalric (Quantum of Solace [which I haven't seen but heard bad things about], a bunch of french films I've never heard of)
Max Von Sydow (The Seventh Seal, Rush Hour 3)
YesNoSoso: 1
Another "Oscar-worthy" movie that I thought was totally overrated. The effects and style used in the beginning to portray Bouby's "locked-in syndrome" are both fascinating and terrifying. But the movie as a whole is incredibly formulaic. Guy is on top of the world. Guy is an a$$hole. Guy gets in terrible accident. Guy loses everything. Guy initially gives up. Guy eventually learns to live again. Guy becomes a better person. Seen it.
