DEV PATEL AND FRIEDA PINTO IN SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE
______
Come February 22, the Oscars will be awarded to the best movies of the year 2008, that is, at least by Academy voters/standards. And as of today, in the SAG and the BAFTA and the Golden Globe and the DGA awards night, the independent film, The Slumdog Millionaire grabbed the best picture, best ensemble trophy from frontrunners like The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button, Milk, The Reader, and Frost/Nixon. I bet it will win the best picture Oscar. The movie is dazzling, the director Danny Boyle is brilliant, the script very clever, the music rousing. Every aspect of the movie is just as marvelous.
______
Happy Oscar weekend. Celebrate the movies.
