Slumdog MillionaireI have been to see the film Slumdog Millionaire which won loads of accolades at the recent BAFDA awards. It is a super film, upbeat and colourful, set in modern India.
Slumdog MillionaireIt is about the Indian version of the show 'Who wants to be a Millionaire?'. The film takes a young Indian contestant through each of the questions that he got right and his life story unfolds in flashback. You travel with this character all through the film and in the end I had a lump in my throat. Despite the savagery of India's street children this is somehow an undemanding and unstructured film.
After the credits had gone up the cast danced in a mixture of modern and colourful Indian dress. Modern, lively dance in a similar way to that of the cast of 'Mama Mia'. This is obviously going to be the 'in' thing for a while!
