MUMBAI MAGI C AS DANNYBOYLE’S SLUMDOGMILLIONAIRE GETSTHEBOLLYWOOD TOUCH. . .
he big screen career of British director Danny TBoyle thrillingly defies pigeonholing. From
Trainspotting and The Beach to 28 Days Later
and Sunshine, he’s run the celluloid gamut of drug abuse, road movie, extraterrestrial sci-fi and even zombie horror.
His eighth feature, Slumdog Millionaire,
written by Simon (The Full Monty) Beaufoy, is entirely something else – a romantic but often very raw flashback story of an 18-year-old orphan (Dev Patel) poised to win the biggest cash prize on India’s most popular TV quiz show.
