Slumdog Millionaire

While not an APAC adventure per se, I was transported back to Mumbai today through 'Slumdog Millionaire' -- one of the most intense and brilliant films I've seen. How and why does an uneducated 18-year-old slum rat get on India's 'Who Wants to be a Millionaire?' And what happens when he does?

Wonderfully directed -- and even more incredibly acted -- it was all too real based on just the sliver of what I had the chance to see in Mumbai not six weeks ago. I yearn to see more. And never to see it again at the same time.
