Puppy Reading News
Chewie , a shih tzu dog at 2 yrs old, reading morning papers about Slumdog Millionaire
finishes on top, winning eight Oscars.
Winning eight Oscars including top honor, Best Picture of the Year, Slumdog was top dog
at the 81st Academy Awards, Feb. 22 09. Slumdog is magical.
The story follows a young man Jamel who goes on the popular India version of
“Who wants to be a Millionaire?”
Every question brings up painful and wonderful memories of his orphan childhood living
in the slums of Mumbai and traveling with his older brother Salim.
At the heart of his memories is his only hope Latika, girl for it is his destiny to be with.
Dev Patel (Jamel), and Freida Pinto (Latika) bring to life a new type of love story. Both
lovers are powerless in the hard-knock world they live in, but find strength in love.
They make the timeless phrase “all you need is love,” ring true.
To know that the will of finding your true love is enough to get you through the worse is
motivating and Patel plays it genuinely.
The colorful, gritty and at times harsh world in which the characters live in are a testament
to the vision of Danny Boyle and the authentic beauty of India.
With offset angles and close ups, Boyle allows the audience to not watch, but be a part
of the story.
Inspiring, heart warming and every other sentimental word that could be used, this movie
desires all its accolades.
