At the beginning of the film, the audience was asked: In Mumbai in 2006, Gemma Malik was one question away from winning 20 million. How did he do it? There are four options:
First, he cheated.
He was lucky
He is a genius.
D, destiny takes a hand
The answer will be given at the end of the film.
From nothing to 20 million, Gemma will face nine problems in the TV program "Who wants to be a millionaire":
1. Who starred in the action film Imprisonment from 65438 to 0973?
A. Amida Bachel
This is Gemma's childhood idol. Of course he knows.
People worship idols for two reasons: 1, imagining that they can experience a legend; 2. Imagine that you can be an idol. Most of the stars rise from the bottom and are the light in the hearts of the people at the bottom.
Amida Bacher is in prison, and the audience is imprisoned in the slums.
There are three lions in the national emblem of India. What's written under the lion?
A. Truth conquers everything. B. Lies conquer everything. C. Fashion conquers everything. D. Money conquers everything.
Gemma didn't answer directly. He turned to the audience for help. The police officer who interrogated him said, "My five-year-old daughter can answer this question, but you can't. What's wrong? "
Everyone knows that "truth can conquer everything" means "standard answer" or "official answer". I also believe that many people will chuckle when they say this answer. Do you still have a "nonstandard" answer in mind?
3. What is the right hand of Rama described in the doctrine?
A, Flower B, Sword C, Child D, Bow and Arrow
Gemma's mother died in a religious conflict. They were hated by Hindus because they were Muslims. Religion and caste in India.
Gemma said, "I wake up every morning and think of the answer to this question." Maybe there is no solution to this question, maybe the answer is only: bow and arrow.
4. Which famous Indian poet wrote the lyrics of the song "Darshan do Ghanshyam"?
A, Sudas B, Toche Dass C, Miller D, Gobi
It doesn't matter who the author is. The poem is beautiful. I have read Tagore's poems and the ancient Bhagavad-gita, which is just like nature.
After the religious conflict, Gemma, Latikka and Sherim made a living by collecting junk in the garbage dump. "Good-hearted people" take them to a delicious and fun place-"heaven". Gemma met the first "God" in her life-Punas. "God" made them beg, sell artworks and blind some children-in order to make more money. God also wants to blind Gemma. Gemma and Slim escaped, but Latikka didn't.
After many twists and turns, the two brothers came to another "paradise"-the Taj Mahal. They found a new way of life: stealing tourists' shoes, or being a tour guide for tourists. To this end, they had to endure driving and being beaten. When Gemma was injured, she saw the images of the opera performance: life and death, heaven and hell.
Someone once said that artists should be born poor, because: "In the hearts of the poor, there is an indescribable, extremely mysterious and beautiful element that can enhance people's strength, thinking, sympathy and love."
What is beauty?
5. On the $65,438+000 bill, which portrait is the president of the United States?
A, George Washington B, Franklin Roosevelt C, Benjamin Franklin D, Abraham Lincoln.
Gemma and Slim returned to Mumbai. In the underpass, Gemma met a singer and beggar, another angel in "heaven", who had been blinded by Punas. Gemma gave Bellevue 100 dollars. Bellevue told Gemma that Benjamin Franklin was printed on the hundred-dollar bill and told him the location of Latikka.
"You're saved, I'm out of luck. This is the only difference. " Bai Levin said. If you have money, you will be saved. The great man printed on the hundred-dollar bill only cares about the person who can get it. Poverty forces people to be thieves, prostitutes and beggars.
Who invented the revolver?
A, Seymour Court B, Bruce Browning C, Dan Vanson D, James Ravel.
"Money and beauty, every man will trip over it. It seems that you have both. " The police officer told Gemma that Gemma won 6.5438+million.
Gemma and Sherim Pyla rescue Latikka on the street. Under the careful training of Punas, Latikka is about to become a geisha. "Do you really think you can take my property? Do you know how much this little virgin can be worth? " Punus said. Sherim took her away with a revolver. He killed punas. Then Salem took refuge in javed, another "God" and the sworn enemy of Punas. "Very well, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Come here, my friend. I've been looking for someone like you. " Javed praised. The second "God" appeared.
Revolvers can point not only at enemies, but also at brothers. "Whoever has a gun has the final say!" Sherim got Gemma out of the house with a gun and took Latika's first night. That night, Sherim got both money and beauty.
A lot of things can be produced under the gun.
7. In which city in England is the intelligence department of Cambridge?
A, Oxford B, Leeds C, Cambridge D, London
Gemma works in the call center. She is a tea boy. Developed information helped him answer this question correctly: at the same time, he also used this convenience to find his long-lost brother Sherim-after he was driven out by his brother with a pistol.
India is divided into two worlds: one is a modern society that holds every piece of information in developed countries; The other is the poor third world-slums.
8. Which cricketer scored the most points in the history of this century?
A, Shaqi Druka B, Ricky Ponting C, Mike Slater D, Jack Hausl.
Gemma and Sherim met in an unfinished high-rise building in Mumbai. Sherim pointed to the surrounding construction site and said, "This used to be the slum where we lived, but now it's all business districts. India is also the economic center of the world now, brother. And I, standing in the center of the center. This is all javed's territory ... I will do whatever he wants me to do. " -"God" is still there.
Gemma also found Latikka, who has become the lover of "God".
Gemma met the third "God" in her life-who wants to be the host of a millionaire. The host wanted to mislead him: "Slums became millionaires overnight. Do you know who is in charge of all this? " Me. ..... do what you have to do, and I promise you will be as famous and rich as me in three minutes ... Don't choose B? Ricky Ponting, the most famous cricket player in Australia. "
Gemma was not misled by "God". He chose D and won 6.5438+million. As soon as the program was over, "God" sent him to the police station on charges of cheating.
It doesn't matter if you score the most, and it doesn't matter if you are close to the center. "Successful people" are often not the best. There is always something unspeakable that controls fate. In the film, Gemma miraculously got rid of the control of the three "gods", but in reality, most Indians did not.
Who can score more points than God?
Nine, in the book three musketeers by Alexander Dumas, two of the musketeers are called atos and Porto. What was the name of the former three musketeers?
A, aramis B, Cartier Matteo Ricci C, De Donner D, Planck
Three musketeers is a story about love, adultery, friendship and betrayal.
When Gemma and Shelim were in primary school, the textbook was three musketeers, but before they could read it, religious conflicts came and destroyed their families. Latikka, the "Three Musketeers", joined, and all three were ruined.
At the beginning of Who Want to Be a Millionaire, while "God" javed was away, Sherim let Latikka go to Gemma and gave her a mobile phone saying that Gemma might call.
Gemma called. He wants to ask his brother for help. Latikka replied. She said, "I don't know, I never knew. Gemma, even without money ... "selim knew that" God "would pursue it. He shot "God" and fell into the pile of money. He has only money left. Is it sad that "people die and keep money" or "people live and have no money"?
Anyway, that night, Gemma won at the same time: Love-Latikka; Friendship-the dedication of my brother Selim; Name-all Indians know him; Profit-20 million.
At present, official statistics in India show that the illiteracy rate is 35%, but some people estimate that the actual illiteracy rate is half of the total population. The dropout rate in primary education is high: 50%. It is not clear how many Indians can become "musketeers".
"Do you read a lot?" The host asked Gemma.
final result
Gemma and Latikka met at the railway station, embraced each other and walked towards a happy future hand in hand. The answer to the question at the beginning of the film is also obvious: D. Destiny takes a hand.
This answer also reminds the audience that your present situation is destiny takes a hand.
Gemma asked, "Why does everyone like this program?" Latikka replied, "This is the way to escape, isn't it? Escape to another life. " After all, it's just a game, a movie.
Director danny boyle said: "In Indian culture, this fate is extremely powerful, and people are very small and meaningless in front of it. Everyone has his own world and his own role. What people need to do in the face of fate is to obey God's will, not to do their best. "
The last question
Can India shake off the shadow of the past and have a bright future like Gemma Malik?
First, bows and arrows. It is difficult to get rid of the fetters of conflicts between religion and caste.
B, lies can conquer everything. It has always been stupid and corrupt in politics, just shouting: "India is also the economic center of the world now!" " "That's enough.
C, truth can conquer everything. Latikka asked, "escape? Where are you going? What do you live on? " Jamal Malik replied, "Love." Truth is love.
D, destiny takes a hand. Accept your fate, deliberate action won't help, but you will come eventually.
Key words of ten questions:
1, fantasy-the audience is imprisoned in the slums.
2. Lies-well-known nonstandard answers.
3. Religion-Bow and arrow.
4. Ugliness-what is beauty?
5, poor-have money to save.
6, violence-a lot of things can be produced under the gun.
7. Differentiation-India is divided into two worlds.
8, at the mercy of-who can score more than God?
9. Ignorance-Do you read much?
10, fate-fate.
These ten questions reflect the reality of India from different angles. This is a developing country, and it is inevitable that it is somewhat backward. In fact, some of these problems are also worthy of our deep thinking, such as fate, beauty and violence.
