Millions

[Viking]

Not exactly a work of art, but a very sweet movie that even kids can enjoy and learn a thing or two.

Great movie. I'd actually rank this and Trainspotting above Slumdog in terms of Danny Boyle films.

Another good one in the same vein is Son of Rambow.

[Viking]

yes, better than slumdog millionaire for sure. we love millions...it, like Arrested Development, was prescient of the impending housing disaster and the short term greed that pervaded the UK/soCal/US

How can you talk about Millions on this website without bringing up the classic Mormon missionary scene. I tried to find it on Youtube, but I couldn't.

I loved it when the missionaries biked home with tons of appliances.

Boyle is coming to Utah to make a documentary about the guy who his arm off after it was trapped under a boulder.

I'd actually say Millions qualifies are very good art.

I'd actually say Millions qualifies are very good art.

So would I. It is one of my family's favorite movies. The main character gave a wonderful performance. The story was very touching.

I definitely thought it was superior to Slumdog.

Quick shout out to the secret weapon of this movie's success: screenwriter Frank Cottrell Boyce, who wrote both the novel and the screenplay. Boyce is one of the most original screenwriters in Hollywood and, outside of this movie, has done most of his work with director Michael Winterbottom. The guy is just insanely talented and I would urge fans of this movie specifically and original storytelling in general to check out 24 HOUR PARTY PEOPLE, CODE 46 and my personal favorite TRISTRAM SHANDY.
