Slumdog Millionaire
Slumdog Millionaire was a feel-good movie that was released in 2008. The movie follows a resident of the slums in Mumbai who goes on to become a millionaire by becoming a participant in Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? In the end, he gets with the girl, and everyone is happy. Well, except for his brother, who’s dead.
Anyway, the movie began with a budget of just $15 million, which was pretty tremendous, considering it was shot entirely in India. Apart from making close to $380 million during its theatrical run, it won eight of its ten Academy Award nominations.
