SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE!

a must mention--the film: Danny Boyle's::: SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the most beautiful film i have seen in a very long time. complete sensory fulfillment - the plot, colors, photography, directing, and a 'tack-sharp' soundtrack thanks in part to A R Rahman & MIA. the first five minutes drew me in with the Indian 'slum' kids running amuck over tin roofs while the cops chased them down. the combination of film & music couldn't have been sculpted more perfectly. i was there, living that moment visually, while remember my walks there a little over a year ago. i wish i had the voices of the children to share with you all - but the sound clips exist no more. consider hearing 20 children walking behind you, repeating 'hello, hello, hello, hello...' through the slums of Jaipur - there really is nothing quite like it.
