Of course, blaming the filmmakers is a little unfair when you look at how hopelessly fucked up southeast Asia is. India has a lot of room to improve, but Afghanistan? The only thing coming out of there that is worth cash is being cut down by our military (i.e. the poppy).


india and afghanistan are not southeast asia.



I know, I laughed too.

The world in general if pretty fucked. Most people who have lots of money hate their lives way more than the poor.

Yes, yes, yes. Thailand/Cambodia/Burma/Nam/Laos=SE Asia. India/Pakistan/disputably Afghanistan are plain old South. Brainfarts happen, you know.

WTF.

Please someone hire those kids for something. They were the best part of the movie. Wow, I can't believe it. And they aren't getting invited to the premieres or anything either. Total bs.

Hmmm will they come dressed up in their Costume Designers' Guild winning contemporary wardrobe?

from the AP

Quote:
Two of the child actors from hit film "Slumdog Millionaire" are expected on the red carpet at Sunday's Oscars, experiencing riches
and glamour a world away from their lives in Mumbai's shantytowns.

But who wins a coveted golden statuette under the bright lights of Hollywood's Kodak Theatre is largely immaterial for Azharuddin Mohammed Ismail, who plays the young Salim, elder brother of the film's central character Jamal.

He has more pressing concerns. The city authorities recently razed his family's neighbourhood.

"My hope is that we'll be able to get a house to live in," the boisterous 10-year-old told AFP TV at the tarpaulin-covered lean-to he now calls home before leaving for the United States.

The money Azhar earnt for filming has already gone to daily expenses, said his father, Mohammed Ismail Mohammed Usman, who sells cardboard to eke out a living.

"The only thing that happened was that I became well-known because of my son. That's it. Nothing else changed. My kid became a hero and I'm living like a zero. This is my shack," he said.
