Slumdog Millionarie (Carolina)

• What does the title mean? How does the title and the
contrasts within it provide symbolic summary of the film?
It's related to how a boy that lived in extreme poverty since he was little, got to be millionaire, and all that by remembering past experiences in his childhood which worked as hints.

• Early in the film we see the young Jamal dive into a latrine
pit to steal a glimpse at a visiting movie star. How does his
single-mindedness to see this movie star reveal his determination?
What other examples do you see in the film of his
determination?
It reveals that his determination is so much that he would do anything to get what he wants because he knows it's worth it and that he'll be very happy to accomplish itAnother example I could remember to have seen in this movie was when he first met Latika, and after they took her away he searched for her at any cost because he really loved her.
