Very good film but problematic for the hearing impaired. The catalog description is in error: Spoken languages in the movie are Spanish (primarily) w/ quite a lot of English interwoven throughout. The DVD comes with automatically non-removable yellow subtitles which are English language sub-title translations of all the words spoken in Spanish. The English language dialogue does not show in the yellow sub-titles. For hearing impaired viewers one has to concurrently use the closed-captioning [if the borrower has a Remote w/ closed captioning]. The closed- captions show the Spanish and English language dialogue in white-letter English captions but they are superimposed over the yellow subtitled caption (so some of the yellow subtitle words are seen at the same time as the white closed captioning.) A very unnecessary visual distraction. The director and the distributor should have made the English language subtitles optional rather than mandatory and they would have avoided this white text over and near yellow text mess.
