The Sea Inside
The Sea Inside (2004), Alejandro Amenábar:
The irony of the Million Dollar Baby protests in the face of this was definitely a highlight of the last Oscar season.
Surpringly (to me at least), while the movie is ostensibly about euthanasia, it doesn't really delve into that subject as much as the nature of love and family. What comprises your family, how it functions, the roles of blood and outsiders, and in the end, what is strong enough to break those ties.
