 On this week’s Vickers Review, Jon recommends seeing the movie, “The Diving Bell and the Butterfly.” Directed by Julian Schnabel, this movie is about Jean-Dominique Bauby, who was the editor for ELLE magazine in France. One day, everything changes for Bauby after he suffers a massive stroke that leaves him paralyzed except for his left eyelid – his only means of communication.
Watch for this awe inspiring film in a movie theater near you.

We end our show with a trip to Fair Oaks Farms in our Experience Michiana segment. This place has a dairy fun room, a 4-D movie theater and a birthing room where you can see a baby calf being born. This isn’t your ordinary cow farm, so round up the family and check out the art of dairy - you might just learn something new.
