Slumming at the Golden Globes

[views_livemint]

Hey, Melissa here.

Perhaps I'm jumping the gun for my Indian readers, since India doesn't get to see Slumdog Millionaire for another week and a half (it's out Jan. 23, fyi), but in light of the glitzy award show this weekend, thought I would ask people a couple questions about the movie.

I watched Danny Boyle's flick over Christmas with my family

I thought the movie was great. I've never been to India, and can't claim any street cred about being well versed in any serious details about India

Does the current gloval suffering have u down?

Now that the world has deteriorated to an all time low - "Out of Order" is the perfect remedy for channeling your aggression. Angst and emotional turmoil fused with contageous melodies rendering a positive twist over the ominous realities of the world.

Just for reference, I dont think your jumping the gun on anyone. I was just in India and Nepal and I bought my slumdog dvd for 30cents at a video store in a remote little town in Nepal. those things are out in Asian countries before most of you have ever seen them in the west.

I guess if we all believed what we saw in the movies, we'd all think that America was full of gun totin, rocket launching terrorists. Oh wait maybe that's a bad example. But generally I think some of the outcry from India has been because they arent use to being depicted in a realistic way, Slumdog certainly aint Bollywood. Personally the film made me want to jump right back on a plane to that lovely, exhausting terrifying amazing country. I was disappointed that the movie seemed to run out of legs at the end. It sort of drifted into a sappy love story and boy does makes good. The brother just shooting himself seemed like more of an act of desperation from the director than the character.
