Slumdog Millionare - arym

- What does the title mean? How does the title and the
contrasts within it provide symbolic summary of the film?
A slum is a section of the indian society which is really pour, slumdog figuatively means someone who lives in the slums. When you read the title slumdog millionare you can tell that the movie is most likely about someone from the slums who becomes a millionare.

- Early in the film we see the young Jamal dive into a latrine
pit to steal a glimpse at a visiting movie star. How does his
single-mindedness to see this movie star reveal his determination?
What other examples do you see in the film of his
determination?
He is someone who doesn’t give up, someone who no matter what happens tries to reach his goles, another example is him joining Who want’s to be a Millionare just for Latika to see him.

Enjoy,
