Slumdog Millionaire In the West, India, China

Sometimes, the writing of a foreign movie critic in me is a personal thing will be a bit hesitant, because although the common feelings of humanity, but the culture of another society is not well-known to us, I believe some of our professionals on a lot of movies understanding of Western movies, I am afraid not a lot of the West such as the general public, because that young age they are immersed in one of the, for example, "Bush Biography", U.S. experts to study again, I am afraid, not as an American people feel better. Just like "Hero" (movie version, the U.S. theater version), "House of Flying Daggers" Oriental color and fun of a lot of foreign elements can be famous, but the film has the characters talk nonsense can not conceal how much we do not like the culture of ordinary people. Misreading of the different cultures have much to see the United States Professor of Jin Yong's Novels Writing the book reviews will know. But "slums millionaire" is very interesting, first of all, It has grown from a British film directed by a totally Indian cinema, and in the cultural expressions on a very natural, not stiff feeling. Second, it appears from Chinese fans, but also so acutely aware, there is no barrier.
First question, after the movie has nothing to do movies and performances by the film's male lead heroine, all of a sudden out of the whole realist films atmosphere, reminiscent of the world on behalf of Indian popular musical genres, let me guess Danny Paul may have musical fans are in India, like Quentin samurai and martial arts are the same fans. Modern Oriental culture is very popular in the West, Buddhism is the birthplace of India has many fans, such as Nirvana famous bands, such as Richard Attenborough will be filming "Gandhi", such as large family where science fiction Thurner childhood longing for India, Captain Nemo is designed to Indians on.
Better explain the second question. This year I look Nishikawa poet's book, "Rangers and chat - a Chinese person visit to India," There is a very vivid words, "India is a problem in all societies put a magnifying glass to enlarge the Chinese, so have to know Chinese to know India is a very good choice. "(the effect) so we look," the millionaire slum, "has a lot of circumstances we are very familiar, such as decoy children, training and disability instrument into beggars beggars Group. Ascendant's "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" and the variety show (cis say, you watch Michael Hui Koon-man 70's comedy, which already has the irony of such programs, and we but three decades later only). Although known as "the world's largest democratic country" is still rampant corruption in the separation of the social reality of class, as well as economic development, religious conflicts and so on.
So watch films, I often think that their own look at a Chinese movie. Through story-telling to the people leads to a life of ups and downs of the narrative, such as "Legend of the Mad Phoenix"; from the pristine rural culture to the economic takeoff of the great changes of modern society, such as "Dust in the Wind", "counter to the wind of people" ( brothers in the uncompleted high-rise buildings look down on the scene, like a "wind counter to the people" and cheated out of several juvenile movie scenes look upstairs); person's life brings out the entire history of changes, turbulence , then such as "City of Sadness."
As Nishikawa said, India is China's a mirror. So from a certain sense, this is often attributed to the愤青, "Every Chinese person should look at" a movie. Appreciation Danny Paul, an outsider to him without prejudice and the limitations to filming a movie, Oriental, and another country can be moved by the audience of the Orient, the beneficiary.
