Slumdog Millionaire

[ishtart]

We had a lovely Parents Night Out(tm) starting with dinner at Amber India. Although he knew nothing about it but the title and that it had won some awards we went to see Slumdog Millionaire. I dont want to go into the plot or say much other than that it was a really well done bit of cinema. The cinematography built a really amazing colorful pallate, the pacing was wonderful, and I am quite impressed with all the actors (especially given their ages). I'm hoping to see more work from the lead actor Dev Patel.

I do highly recommend this but this is not a light hearted romantic comedy and several scenes were quite difficult to watch.
