With vibrant colors, beautiful sounds, and the utter essence of Indian culture, Slumdog Millionaire portrays Mumbai with an expert style. Mixing the harsh reality of the dangerous streets of the slum, and the childlike faith and positivity of Jamal K. Malik, the result is a film that proves to be a touching and riveting tale.
Directed by Danny Boyle, this romantic drama takes the audience on an emotional journey. One experiences horror, anger, revenge, tenderness, love, and happiness, all within one movie. The musical elements of this cinematic work greatly adds to the emotional aspect of this film. Latika’s Theme is a moving piece that truly encompasses this character’s life. One is able to feel heartache, pain, and a semblance of hope within this musical composition. Jai Ho and O Saya, sung by AR Rahman and M.I.A., are dramatic pieces that allow you to feel the energy of the Indian culture.
This movie is a work of art from the creative standpoint. The visual and musical elements in the cinematic work are brilliant and truly leave the audience mesmerized. And to top it all off, the entire cast pays homage to Indian tradition by in a Bollywood dance at the end of the film.
Priceless.
