Slumdog Millionaire

Destiny, love, religion, money, and brotherhood are the best words that can describe this film. Slumdog Millionaire is a film that in my opinion, transmits an important message to its audience. The main word that describes the film is destiny. Was it their destiny to be together? Destiny is an important word that many people believe in. Destiny creates faith and gives a reason to keep living. Then we have the word love. Jamal meets Latika when they are kids, and he learns to take care of her and to protect her. He feels its his destiny to love her and be with her. Therefore, he loves her and does everything for love. Then, we have religion. Religion is the reason his mom died. Religion is what kept his brother alive. Religion is the reason came together with destiny. We can also see how money plays an important role in the movie. Is money the only way we can obtain what we want? It seemed that money was the only was he could obtain Latika. His brother lived by money. The whole film was about who has more money and what can money can do for you. Finally, we see brotherhood. Even though, Jamal's brother play him dirty several times, he knew what his duty was. The film is about how this two brothers tried to find what is best for them, but at the end they know they will save each others' lives.
