Mar Adentro (The Sea Inside) is a wonderful and touching film. I have little to add to the very positive comments made by others; however, there is one caution.
This film is spoken in Spanish, and the characters speak very quickly.
To keep up, the English subtitles flash on the screen as quickly, and it is almost impossible to keep up with the dialog.
Because of this it is difficult to experience the full impact of the film when viewed with subtitles.
I must admit this is the first time a subtitled foreign film has presented this problem to me, and unfortunately I know of no solution.
In spite of this drawback, I recommend the film most heartily.
