I was wondering if others had seen it and what they thought? The english title is "The Sea Inside (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0369702/)".

I really like this guys other films (Amenábar, spanish director of Tesis, Open your Eyes, The Others), so I got this out on DVD last night. Pretty moving stuff. In particular, I found the scene where he flys out of the window, and the ending, bought me close to tears /images/graemlins/frown.gif

I find it interesting that every film Amenábar has made deals with Death, Disability, The Afterlife and various notions of "Reality". Pretty dark subject matter. I find it hard to draw any major conclusions from his work, other than it makes you think about some pretty complex issues. Can anyone enlighten me?
