Journal-Slumdog Millionaire

I watched a movie, Slumdog Millionaire, which won eight prizes of Oscar. In the begining, there is a man, Jamal Malik, who is on a TV show, Who Wants to Be a Millionaire. He answers all the question correctly and only have to answer the last question. The whole movie is about the story behind the answer.
Through this movie, I saw a lifestyle totally different from mine in Taiwan. The three main characters, Jamal, Salim, and Latika are live in the slum in India. Life in slum is tough, even children have to make money as possible as they can. Jamal’s mother die during the Hindu anti-Muslim violence. Jamal and his elder brother, Salim have to make living by themselves. They go through many terrible thing but they still conquer it and find a way to live. People always feel discontented with their lives. However, comparing with the slum, I’m so glad and thankful that I live in Taiwan and have a better life than them in slum.
This movie also talks about destiny. Jamal doesn’t have a regular education but he win the game. The questions are all have connection to his life. Just like providence that he win the game and be a millionaire.
