I just saw this movie the other night because my professor dragged me to it. Wow, am i glad she did. This is an amazing movie that you will still be thinking about for a few days. The basic story is that an uneducated 18 year old boy from the slums of Mumbai (in India) wins their version of Who Wants to be a Millionaire? the movie explores his life and how he was able to come to all of the answers. It is a touching view on what the rest of the world is like, that we have it so easy here. It is being shown as a love story, but that is a small part of it. It is just about human nature.
Unless you only like slapstick comedy, you will love this movie. it is phenomenal.
Go see it and let me know what you think.
I can't agree more! This is my oscar pick (although I do actually agree with some of the Indians who find issue with some of it) It's so beautifully done. It's a real masterpiece. I just got back from my 2nd viewing and love it more. Although I feel like I need a prozac now, what an amazing film. Love it!
