Danny Boyle is global


Danny Boyle is one of my favorite directors. He has such an amazing way of storytelling. Like Simon Beaufoy (the screenwriter) said, many directors shoot a screenplay, but Danny Boyle makes it soar (or was it fly?). In any event, this time, his genius garnered a Golden Globe with Slumdog Millionaire. The remarkable screenplay took a pretty standard story and wove it into a vibrant and creative tapestry. The music was phenomenal. And Danny Boyle is genius yet again. I loved that they swept their Golden Globe awards!

And you will want to have your volume on if you visit the movie's website.

Cool movie. I agree about your comments about my musical selection. I am also a fan of a good beat. I'll have to check out the Slumdog soundtrack. I like the Indian/techno/hiphop. :)
