• In one pivotal scene, the show’s host tells Jamal his own story about coming from the slums. He then gives Jamal the wrong answer written on the mirror in the rest room. Why did he give Jamal the wrong answer? What did Jamal do?
I think the host was just angry, because I asume the host thought that someone like Jamal did not deserve to be a millionere just like that, so that's why he gave him the wrong awnser because maybe he was thinking that someone who has passed over everything to become what he is should deserve it more. What Jamal did was that he started to use his own knowledge and trusted no longer the host.
• Describe how loss, chance, luck, suffering, and street smarts are also characters behind the scenes. The film explores gain and loss side by side. Triumphs are tempered with loss. Where do you see this evident?
When Jamal and Salim lost their mother they gain a new friend. I think this of the gain/loss thing is true because, when you loose something or loose at something this shows you the next time you have to be smarter or better. When we close a door we open a window.
• The chaos and the constant noise and motion of Mumbai at the center of the film, (supported by a fabulous soundtrack) are contrasted with a deeper silent seeking. Describe what each of the main characters is seeking.
Salim loos for Jamal while Jamal looks for Lathika (the friend).
