Alejandro Amenábar is a Spanish film director, screenwriter and composer known for films such as Tesis, Abre los ojos, The Others, Mar adentro (The Sea Inside) and Agora.

Amenábar directed several internationally recognised films and won the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film for Mar adentro (The Sea Inside).

Three DeBaser reviews discuss Amenábar's work with divergent views: powerful treatment of euthanasia in Mare Dentro, mixed-to-critical takes on performance and voiceover, and a respectful but imperfect historical drama in Agora. Production values are noted positively; screenplay and characterization draw criticism.

For:Viewers interested in ethical dramas, historical epics, and auteur cinema.

 End-of-life, as it's now called. Euthanasia, assisted death.
