Danny Boyle's got a new flick called SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE!!!

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. Danny Boyle's got a new one and in keeping with Danny Boyle tradition it's a departure from his last flick. It's called SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE and it's about an illiterate street kid from Mumbai who wins the top prize on the Indian version of WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE? They've cast Dev Patel (from British TV show SKINS) as the kid and have a script from Simon Beaufoy (THE FULL MONTY). Boyle brings his regular DP, Anthony Dod Mantle, to lens this one as well. Warner Independent Pictures and Pathe are in talks to distribute domestically (former) and abroad (latter). Sounds like a sweet movie, more in line with MILLIONS than, say, SUNSHINE. heh...
