Slumdog Millionaire

This week we discuss the 2008 British drama film Slumdog Millionaire directed by Danny Boyle and starring Dev Patel in his film debut as Jamal.

It narrates the story of 18-year-old Jamal Malik from the Juhu slums of Mumbai.

As a contestant on an Indian-Hindi version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire Jamal surprises everyone by answering every question correctly so far, and he is one question away from winning the grand prize when he is accused of cheating.

He recounts his life story to the police, illustrating how he was able to answer each question.

The Aussie and the Scotsman get down and dirty in this one. They love it - which is rare for both.

Relating back to his own Indian adventures the Scotsman tells us how real to slumlife this movie actually is.
