slum dog millionare? more like slum dog multi oscar winner...

last night at the 81st annual academy awards, the movie "Slum dog millionare" won 8 academy awards including the best picture beating out "the curious case of Benjamin Button" which stared Brad Pitt and Danny Boyle also won for best director (slumdog millionare). The movie is about an 18 yr old teenage who lives in the slums and goes on the indian version of who wants to be a millionare. He is one question away from winning the 20 million rupee grand prize when the show ends for the night , he is arrested in suspicion of cheating because how can a boy from the street have so much knowledge? He is on a adventurous journey with his younger brother in which he loses his love and shows the slums in which he grew up. Personally I haven't seen this movie but based on the amount of awards won at the highest level of honor , the oscars, has given me a feeling of needing to watch it and see what millions of others saw , experienced and have loved so much from this film. I urge everyone to go and watch it just as so many others did.
