Award: "Slumdog Millionaire"

Last night I had the privilege of watching "Slumdog Millionaire" -- an extraordinary Golden Globe-winning film that is nominated for 10 Academy Awards, including Best Director and Best Picture.

Also last night, the film's producer --
Christian Colson -- was awarded the top prize at the Producers Guild of America Awards ceremony.

If you haven't yet seen this film, I highly recommend you do! And if you have seen it, what did you think about it? Leave a comment!

  1. I loved the movie! I thought it lived up to all the hype, which doesnt always happen :)

  2. The problem with this movie is that it's a feel-good movie (almost a Disney movie in nature). In adopting this style, the movie inexorably perpetuates the status quo by subverting any attempts to address the hegemonic influences it so onerously presents.
