You're right. I didn't express myself very well. What I meant to say was that it was probably too literal and not translated accurately. What I don't know is if that was done on purpose or not! You never know sometimes! Intentional or not, I kind of like it, even though it sounds a little odd (How about "The Sea Within"?).

It was awarded the Golden Globe for best foreign language film - but that shouldn't deter any of us who are fluent in Castellano.

I thought that was a literal translation until you mentioned it. According to wordreference, "mar adentro" means "out to sea", which is quite different from "the sea inside". For those who have seen it, would "Out to Sea" have been a more appropriate English title?
Edit: wait, "sea inside" is the literal translation (if mar = sea, and adentro = inside). But, apparently, this is not what the phrase "mar adentro" means....so by translating literally, they've changed the meaning Yes, you're right. The appropiate translation would be "Out to Sea" for "Mar Adentro". If the title was " El mar adentro", that could be translated "The Sea Inside". But that's nothing...don't ask about the spanish translation of american movie titles... ehem

"The Sea Inside Hogs a Bland Goya Gala" -- El País Herald English Edition , Tuesday February 1, 2005 "Alejandro Amenábar's drama about euthanasia broke all records, taking 14 Film Academy awards." And I watched it all LIVE!

Hey! I didn't even watch the Oscars last night - forgot they were even on, to tell you the truth - but am happy to hear (from pim!) that this (apparently) wonderful movie won the Best Foreign Film award. Congratulations, Alejandro!!!!!!
Now, if the movie would just come to Columbus, Ohio!! I'd LOVE to see it! Maybe now that they've won. We'll see.
Saludos, MadridMan

I totally share Madridman's sentiments about this movie and was overjoyed to see Amenábar win the Oscar. I first saw "Mar Adentro" in Madrid last fall while attending language classes there. It was the first time I ever went to a movie theatre to see a film in Spanish without English subtitles. Even here in New York City, the movie is being shown in only one location. I would imagine that there will be wider distribution all over beginning Friday.

DARNIT! What a shame I missed is. Surely I can find the clip on the internet somewhere.. or see it tonight on TVEi!!! Mmmmm.. Gwyneth Paltro... Mmmmm.. :p I think she's my favorite actress.... Mmmmm... I've heard her speak in what seemed to be perfect Spanish in interviews and I thought, "WOW! She's even MORE attractive now!" I knew she studied in Spain, I thought in Toledo but Talavera de la Reina is in the Toledo province - not in the city itself. Again, Congratulations to Alejandro Amenábar and also to Javier Bardem! Saludos, MadridMan
