  • British Schools Film Festival #5
    BRITISH SCHOOLS FILM FESTIVAL #5 STUDY GUIDE FOR THE FILM SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE UK 2008, directed by Danny Boyle Synopsis The film starts with a young man, Jamal Malik, being interrogated and tortured by the Mumbai police. He is accused of fraud after having reached the last round of the popular TV show “Who wants to be a millionaire?” How can an uneducated young man from the Dharavi slum in Mumbai succeed in a quiz show, when even university professors failed? “I knew the answers”, says Jamal, and no, he is not a genius. During his interrogation Jamal recounts, through flashbacks, the circumstances that led him to identifying the answers correctly. The story he tells is the story of his life. Jamal grew up as a street kid in the Dharavi slum of Mumbai. His earliest memories are of kids playing on Mumbai’s streets and being chased by the police. Later he remembers the day when his brother Salim locked him in the outhouse while Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan was visiting Dharavi. In order to get himself out and ask the famous actor for an autograph, Jamal jumps into the stinking sewer. When Hindi and Muslims clash violently in the Bombay riots, Jamals mother is killed and Jamal and his brother Salim have to flee the city. During their escape they meet the “third musketeer”, Latika, a young girl who is alone on the streets as well. The children stick together and later fall into the hands of Maman, a ruthless gangster who picks up orphans and sends them to beg in the street.

  • Thought for the Week – 26Th April 2020
    Thought for the Week – 26th April 2020 I hope you are all surviving the social distancing and are looking forward to the time when we can get back to some normality and gathering together again for worship. Some of you may have been watching the new ITV drama “Quiz” which was aired during Easter week. It recounts how, in September 2001, former army Major Charles Ingram, his wife Diana Ingram and an accomplice, Tecwen Whittock, were accused of cheating their way to winning a million pounds on the ITV game show, “Who Wants to be a Millionaire.” The couple stood trial for conspiring by coughing during the recording to signify the correct answers to the multiple- choice questions posed by host Chris Tarrant. Although they have always protested their innocence, the Ingrams were found guilty of the charge of "procuring the execution of a valuable security by deception" and sentenced to 18 months in prison, suspended for two years. Just in case you haven’t seen “Who Wants to be a Millionaire,” it’s a quiz show based on answering 15 multiple choice questions with ascending difficulty to win various sums of money from £100 up to £1,000,000. After the contestant had chosen their answer from the four possibilities, the host asked them the question, “Final answer?” Along the way the contestant has three lifelines to help them choose the correct answer – “ask the audience,” “fifty-fifty” and “phone a friend.” While the end result could be a significant win, the questions posed had little life- significance. Today I would like to pose a question which requires a correct final answer and it is one which has life-changing significance.

    Comunicação & Cultura, n.º 8, 2009, pp. 161-172 From Q&A to Slumdog Millionaire – it’s written1 LaurA FErnAnda BulgEr * Slumdog Millionaire (2008)2 is a multi-oscared movie adapted from a novel by Vikas Swarup, an Indian diplomat turned writer. The novel was published in 2005, titled Q&A.3 In the “Prologue,” eighteen year-old Ram Mohammad Thomas has just been arrested. A dweller in Mumbay’s Dharavi, “Asia’s biggest slum,” he is accused of cheating by the producers of the show Who Wants to be a Millionaire. Having never been to school, and appearing to be no genius, the young man could not have answered the quiz on his own, and so be the winner. With this argument, the people who ran the show bring charges against Ram. However, it is also made clear that they have no money to pay the prize, their dishonest scheme consisting of asking questions no one could ever answer, or buying the winner off with much less money. Ram refused to be part of the deal. The host of the show, Prem Kumar, their accomplice and a crook himself, is the one who turns the boy over to the police who, in connivance with the promoters, torture him to extract a guilty confession. Smita Shah, the young woman lawyer who suddenly shows up to rescue him from prison, asks Ram to recount his life story. She wants to test his innocence by having him explain how he managed to answer the questions of the _______________ * Professora auxiliar com agregação da Universidade de Trás-os-Montes e Alto Douro.
