exactly! the movie starts with him in sea, coming to a village with his daughter. the movie ends with him back to the sea, but without his daughter. he lost her to the village. like you said, the sea attains a character of its own.

2 reasons:
1. Fermina is of an aristocratic family. Florentino was just an adolescent fling. it took her the death of her husband to realise the passion he had for her. Florentino slept with 600+ women during that time but his love for Fermina still remains. She on the other hand, was faithful to her husband and her former lover has the guts to propose her when her husband's dead body has just left the house.
2. if they had married by the 20th page, how do you propose Marquez is supposed take the story forward?

good point about translations! even coelho's 'alchemist' malayalam translation lost the sheen. OV Vijayan translated his 'Khasak' into english as 'The Legends of Khasak'. poor one! MT translated his work 'Kaalam' into english. another poor one. which got me thinking! Bible was written in Armaic & Hebrew languages. It must have been translated a 100 times before it took the present King James or whatever version. for each, the translator must have used his experience, or the shortage of it. have serious doubt whether Jesus had said all those parables the way those are being read today. there must have been deeper meaning to those.

i am of the opinion, that the screenplays are written by ghostwriters with the movies playing in front of them. there might be writers like MT and Padmarajan who complete the script before shooting but even then the published scripts of their movies are too detailed which raises the question, whether those writers had been so specific. Adoor Gopalakrishnan's 11 scripts were published recently and all of them detailed to the extent of where the camera is kept and what sort of a shot (low, medium,high) was used.

but, one published screenplay which baffled me was 'Amaram' by Lohithadas. in the intro, Mathrubhumi books have claimed that it was the original one written by Lohi. the movie starts off with Mamukka's character coming out of jail after having served a term for having murdered his son-in-law. he goes back to the village and then the flashback unfolds. if you have seen the movie, you must be aware that the movie does not start like this.

if movie and script are different, then there is good chance that script is original. scripts undergo revisions during pre-production and also during production. budget constraints, location problems etc. force u to make changes in the original script. but they make sure that the story doesn't change. so amaram script original aayirikkanam.

but if movie and script (each and every scene on paper) are exactly similar, then most probably it is a ghostwriter.

For example, here is the script of MT's Oppol (first scenes) : http://indulekha.blogspot.com/2006/0...kkathakal.html

Compare with movie :



You can see that there are modifications. This means that the script is original (in MT's own words).

MT's Daya first scenes script: http://indulekha.blogspot.com/2006/04/daya_29.html

movie :



This may be a ghostwriter as the scenes look exactly as written.

there is a difference between authors translating their own works or making others do it. OV Vijayan had a control over English. he spend more time for translating 'Khassak' than he took for writing it in the first place. nammude novels-il NS Madhavan-te 'Lanthanbetheeriyile Lutheeniyakal', translate cheythapetta nalloru sambhavam aayirikkum. athupole Sara Joseph-nte 'Alaahayude Penmakkal'. randinum oru pan-Asian plot aanu. colombian geography malayaalikku aaswadhikaamenki, nammude geography chilappo South-East Asian literary circle-il oru chalanam srishtikaan saadhichekkum.
