I hope my film captures dignity of slum dwellers: Danny Boyle

British director Danny Boyle says unlike 'City of Joy' and 'Salaam Bombay', his film 'Slumdog Millionare' does not portray people living in Indian slums as poor and desperate.11:02 AM on October 21

The only happy part of this film was the ending, thank goodness for that. I don't know where you get off thinking that you are portraying the slum dwellers as anything other than poor and desperate. What a horrible life the homeless children live over there. Talk about exploitation of children, that is what you would get an award for depicting. I found this picture to be very disturbing and have absolutely no desire to visit this country from what your movie has shown. Children have no protection or rights in this country.
