Rent The Diving Bell and the Butterfly. Life is filled with suffering, but it is precious. Sometimes its wonder floods down over you like glaring sunlight, but most of the time it's a trickle that you need to listen for, or a mere filament only glimpsed and memorized for a keepsake.
This film brings the wonders to the surface. (My eyes watered hearing Joe Strummer's voice at the end.)
The movie's not for everyone. It's subtitled, for one. It's about someone paralyzed from head to toe, so you know it's not going to follow a straight line from A to B. No car chases. But like the brilliant little memoir it's based upon, the payoff is all there.
Fight!
