Go See Slumdog Millionaire

Yesterday, we brunched at Table 219 (30 minute wait for a table for 6 at 10:45 - and all the people in your party must be there for them to seat you).  Still a favorite for brunch though we have yet to try out their dinner menu.  Afterwards, we walked over to the Harvard Exit and saw Slumdog Millionaire.  This is one of my favorite movies of the year - an exhilirating, beautiful film.  Roger Ebert says it better than I could:

"This is a breathless, exciting story, heartbreaking and exhilarating at the same time, about a Mumbai orphan who rises from rags to riches on the strength of his lively intelligence. The film's universal appeal will present the real India to millions of moviegoers for the first time."

Can't wait to see this movie
I'd planned to see this today, but got thwarted by my evil cold. I've heard so many great reviews but hadn't seen a preview until your post. Thanks!

feel-good movie of the year
hadn't really heard much of it (other than the danny boyle connection) before going to see it, but i found slumdog millionaire to be wonderful. sure it's predictable, but it's like a good pop song - just because there are lots of them doesn't mean you can't enjoy it all the same. in short, i second your recommendation to go see this movie.
