Episode 91: Slumdog Millionaire (2008)


Released 14 July 2021


For this episode, we watched Slumdog
Millionaire, written by Simon Beaufoy, from the book Q
& A by Vikas Swarup. It was directed by Danny Boyle and
starred Dev Patel, Freida Pinto, Anil Kapur and Irrfan Khan. It
won a tremendous eight Oscars including for Danny Boyle as
director and for the screenplay, but none of its cast was even
nominated.
