Opinion Article
There were many discussions about who deserved the Oscar awards more. Some like The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, some like the story of a poor teenage. Before the ceremony, everyone was talking about it and putting forward an idea. When the ‘it’ night came, everyone was very excited and intense.
In the film The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, the daughter of Daisy Williams reads her mother the diary of Benjamin Button who had born an old man who has diagnosed with several aged diseases at birth and thus given little chance of survival, but who does survive and gets younger with time. Daisy's grandmother was a resident at Benjamin’s home, which is where she first met Benjamin. Although separated through the years, Daisy and Benjamin remain in contact throughout their lives, reconnecting in their forties when in age they finally match up. The film has an extraordinary topic. As a result, you think it would be an interesting movie but it longs three hours which makes you feel bored after some time.
Slumdog Millionaire is the story of a boy who is at the age of 18 called Jamal Malik . He participated to a competition named "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?" which is a very popular contest and known by many countries included Turkey. I used to watch that competition and enjoyed watching it. Therefore, I know how hard it is to win the biggest prize. You have to be wise and have liberal education. In addition, you have to be very calm during the competition. As Jamal, an orphan from the slums of Mumbai, continued giving correct answers, everybody got curious about his success. Since he is an uneducated poor boy, polices thought he is cheating or something. They arrested and interrogated him before the day that he would answer the last question. Jamal started to tell his life story and the places he went with his brother. In every adventures story he told, the audience and polices saw the answers of the questions in the stories. Meanwhile, he keeps trying to find his first love (Latika) and prove that being together is their destiny. He doesn’t quit fighting and the reason that he participates to the competition is to show Latika himself. In the end, when he show up on the Tv for answer the last question Latika sees her on the screen and escape from his husband who is a jerk to find Jamal.
Both movies are about love stories but have completely different topics. Benjamin Button is a surreal movie whereas Slumdog expresses the real life in Mumbai. Benjamin Button is a good example for high budget Hollywood movie. Brad Pitt and the main actors are very famous movie stars like we all see in the other Hollywood movies. On the other hand, Slumdog has normal people and kids from Mumbai which also lives in these very poor slum areas of Mumbai. There are nor famous or popular actors in this movie.
The only good thing about Benjamin Button is the main idea that his person lives his life reversely but it’s very long and the story doesn’t reflect a strong love. The opposite way round, in Slumdog the characters are very real, full of emotions and follow the voice of their heart. Even the bad character of the film, the big brother, sacrifices for his brother to help them run away at the end of the film.The Curious Case of Benjamin Button won awards in 3 different categories, while Slumdog Millionaire won 8. The Slumdog Millonaire had a cast of poor Indians and the film’s budget is approximately ten times less of the money that spent for Benjamin Button. The ironical situation is that probably the film publishers of Benjamin Button offered Brad Pittt million dollars but who wins millions and a priceless award is a slum. Looks like it isn’t all about money.
