1159 - Slumdog Millionaire


It's official. Not only has Danny Boyle made a masterpiece, but it's also his second film where his protagonist dives into a toilet. This film is enchanting. It's beautiful and gritty and real all at the same time. With a brilliant narrative thread this film is wonderful despite some of it's cliches with the story of the brother, etc... it doesn't matter. You want this guy to succeed. I love that everything in his life has brought him to this moment.
It really is a treasure of a film and it has to be seen on the big screen. This is the kind of film for which I'd have to break down and buy a blue ray player...
Thank you for this, Danny Boyle. Thank you.

I've seen so many movies, but I never felt the urge to see this one.
