Slumdog Millionaire

[liner]

after i made my last post comparing foreign and american films i realized that this is not really a foreign-language film but i was mostly comparing it to what was our most nominated film of the year that i had seen, benjamin button (i need to see milk), and while that was pretty good i think slumdog and it's international flair, absolutely blew it away.

I saw it last night and thought is was a really great film. The end after the credits is not a high school high rip. It's what most bollywood films have in their plot.

It's an English film, but a lot of it is in Indian with subtitles. The problem is the accents, which are sometimes hard to follow.

I've seen a ton so it's probably just easier for me to understand it. But there is still some dialogue that I'm just like...WTF?

I've been turning the subtitles on for just about every movie that I watch, even english language ones, for years to make it easier for myself. I'll admit too some British and Australian films are hard to understand, but sometimes you have to bear with it and even watch scenes over again. I probably have a lot more free time to be able to do this though, I'll admit. I can't even imagine trying to watch as many films as I do if I had a wife and kids.

It may be that I have watched so many films that have foreign accents over the years, I have no problem understanding what is being said.
