Movie: Slumdog Millionaire


The 2008 Best Picture Oscar winner was an Indian production and it is very impressive! When I saw this film I felt very annoyed, because it is a strong movie with a lot of scenes of violence and injustice.
It seemed like a Brazilian movie called "Cidade de Deus". It shows how life is in the real world with no make up.
"Who wants to be a millionaire" is a story about an Indian man who goes on to a gameshow to win a million dollars. He needs to answer questions correctly the questions about culture, politics, popstars and knowledge in general.
The movie starts when he has already won one million of rupees and he is accused of fraud because he is a poor guy who has lived al his life in a slum. Now he is the "tea guy" who works in a call center. In the show producers program's mind it is impossible for this guy to answer all the questions correctly.
Due to this fact he was sent to jail and suffered torture. The producer and the police assumed he was cheating, but he wasn't! The most interesting part of the filme is that he knows the answers, because he has experienced situations that remind him the answers. For example: when he was asked who was the composer of sophisticated music, he remembered when he was arrested the bad guy ordered him and other children to sing a song from this composer. So, he knew the answer!
Slumdog is also a story about love, conflict, treachery and hope. So, it is a grat movie!
