A euphoric film like SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE comes along only once in a blue moon -- you absolutely do not want to miss this larger than life, stunning big screen extravaganza. Not only is Danny Boyle's fairy tale of a film a vivid feast for the eyes, but it is a rich, exuberantly woven story teeming with warmth and heart. When we are introduced to young Jamal, he is being interrogated by police and under suspicion of putting one over on the producers of the Hindi gameshow version of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? He does seem an unlikely contestant -- an uneducated orphan from the slums of Mumbai -- yet through dazzling flashbacks, we are carried through his life on the streets, the violence and oppression he's exposed to, the long lost love of his life who he is forever in search of, and we discover a life story begging to be unwrapped one tender piece of paper at a time. It is not an enchanted existence, but a buoyant, beguiling account of acquired knowledge and of how past experiences shape who we are, what we become. Bouncing from pure coincidence and luck to sweet fate and destiny, SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE, eloquent and vibrant, is an unforgettable melding of magic and sincerity. It is the perfect gift this holiday season!
