Fair enough. But i don’t understand how you can say the film makes and producers did not profit off of the actors and their poverty, since the film made a truck load of dough. Many people made money off this film…but not the actors, at least not in comparison to Boyle and the producers. I understand that if these actors were like Dav Patel, from a relatively wealthy country and not in abject poverty, perhaps the issue would not be as prevalent. I’m not pointing the finger at Boyle, and I don’t think anyone really should. But I think it is really good that it opens up a dialogue. The more people get upset about this one way or another, the more attention will be paid to an issue. Before this movie, who was even talking about India and it’s poverty?

Ugh. No. I thought I was finally rid of those horrible Koodo commercials…I never thought innocently clicking a link in the Videogum comments section would make me relive that horror.

Every time I see a post about these kids I want to skip it and pretend it doesn’t exist because it makes me feel really sad. Also, I really liked the film. I fear I am the worst.
