From a post about who I don't want to win the Oscar (although it seems likely), to a post about a film I really do want to win.... Slumdog Millionaire.
Nominated for Best Picture, this is a film that spans the very best and very worst of human behaviour, traits and attitudes. Some scenes make you turn your eyes from the screen, others leave you in despair at how some people live. Yet there are moments where you want to celebrate, moments where you're barracking for the hero... and celebrating with him, too.
This film could only be better, if it were based on a true story.

Yeah, I second this thought, although for me 'the wrestler' is right up there too. Seen that?
Hehe... no! So I guess I need to check it out.
You know, the only thing that didn't work for me in Slumdog Millionaire was the Bollywood bit at the end when the credits rolled. Didn't quite seem to fit!
