yeah, he especially beat genius into Brian.
My grandfather would occasionally "whack" me upsida my head then say "that was for nothing, just in case you were thinking of doin something"............
I haven't seen the movie, but didn't this precious sweet boy get any money from being in the film? Is he still living in the slums?????
sw
That was just the Bollywood style “casting call” at the end of the movie.
I thought overall it was an engaging story..clever the way they framed it..each question on the “Millionaire” quiz show started a flashback to the boy’s hard life from his childhood in Bombay(Mumbai).
“Indians are not typically Muslim, rather they are Budists.
That along with many other things should tell the US and its companies that we should not be outsourcing anything to them at all. I have also recently found out that they are forced to work 12 hour days and it takes 2 of them to do the job of one of us. So from a FTE perspective 1 American does the job of 3 of them, yet so many companies continue to outsource. The will see exactly how screwed up things will get.”
From an unemployed IT person . . .
Amen!
I have had to fix programs that had been outsourced to India that were so bad I would have failed if I handed them in as a class assignment.
Next thing you know Dad will be strapping him into a bomb belt.
I’d like to see more Hollywood stars get brutal beatings from their fathers.
In fact, they should make films of it because that’s a movie that I’d be willing to pay money to see.
Let’s start out with all the womyn on ‘The View.’ Sean Penn, MICHAEL MOORE, man, Rosie O’mcDonald’s I could go on and on here.
But, it showed this "good things can happen randomly to anyone" mentality, and it fits with their "Slumdog President". I cannot remember a film winning Best Picture without ANY of its actors being nominated in the acting categories.
To your reply 16...yes.
If the boy felt that he should not show off, more to him.
Ti =o your post # 18....great movie...
It was a muslim beat down.
It was also very dark, disturbing and haunting.
I just saw the promo a few minutes ago...."WINNER OF ACADEMY AWARD" and they show all the few happy moments of the movie, and the singing/dancing at the end.
Very misleading.
