The Genre of this movie was Drama and Romance, which really was showed throughout the movie. For an expample when the village got invaded and along side that when Jamal's love never died out for Latika. This movie is about an 18-year old boy, orphan, from the slums of Mumbai, who is about to a great chance to change in life. With the everyone going crazy and watching him, he is just one question away from winning 20 million rupees on India's Kaun Banega Crorepati or Who Wants To Be A Millionaire! But he is suspected for cheating and gets treated horribly and to prove he isn't he tells them his story, his past and his memories about his childhood and the hardships and great times he has had with his brother and Latika.
It is hard for us to pick a rising action. Why? Because throughout the movie there where so many events that could be the rising action. Jamal experieced a lot of difficult hardships. After getting called a cheater for knowing answers that some street kid should know. We also think the rising action could be when the host of India's Kaun Banega Crorepati (Who Wants To Be A Millionaire) writes a wrong answer on the mirror of the bathroom so Jamal can be done. Jamal was smarter than the host that he was and Jamal did not us that answer that was given. Also we thought that when Jamal's brother kicked him out of the hotel room was another rising action. They were so many examples and hardships that led to the climax.
Jamal is just one question away from winning a staggering 20 million rupees. After hearing that final question we both decided that it was the climax of the movie. Jamal was stumped after hearin the last question. The last question was a name of one of the 3 Muskateers. Flash backs showed that Salim, Latika, and Jamal were reading a book about that. Still not knowing the answer he decided to use one of his lifelines and called his brother, Salim. Little did Jamal know that his brother gave Latika his phone to go to Jamal. When Latika heard that Jamal was calling his brother, she realized that she had the phone and she raced back to the car to answer it. Jamal was so surprized when she answerd it. Latika did not know the question though. After talking to her he simply remember the answer and won the 20 million rupees!
After winning the 20 million rupees Jamal headed towards the train station and there he saw that Latika was waiting for him. Jamal repeatedly stateted that it was there "destiny" to be together. Even though it was the end of the movie it was the falling action.
"Doctors.. Lawyers... never get past 60 thousand rupees. He's won 10 million. What can a slumdog possibly know?- Police Inspector. This quote is simply saying if you had nothing you know know nothing. It proves that just because you grew up somewhere where there is less money, its dirty, viloence, drugs, all around not a good place you will get no where in life. This movie really proved to us that if you come from slums, hood, not a good place you can still have a chance in things that doctors, wealthy, educated people know. Slumdog Millionaire was a fantastic movie and the director did a great job getting his message out. So dont think that just because you weren't born into money or grew up in the slums, that you cant pull through and do something big in your life.
