Slumdog M

I fnally got around to seeing Slumdog Millionair, and except for the setting, it seemed to be an excellent but fairly conventional romantic melodrama. The big star was India, captured vividly and sometimes horrifyingly. I don't know how real the picture is, but vivid and gripping it is.

One gut reaction was that the slums of Bombay/Mumbai seem like a good argument for semi-compulsory population limitation, Chinese style.
