Soon after Malayali Rasul Pookutty won the Oscar for sound mixing in the Danny Boyle movie “Slumdog Millionaire”, i started the previous post.
Before i could even hit Publish, the next Oscar for the same movie was announced.
On a winning spree here, this movie.
Video editing. Sorry, i don’t recall the name.

Mallu Resul Pookutty wins Oscar for sound mixing.
Malayalis rejoice !
Oscar count for Slumdog Millionaire now at 3.
No, wait !!! One more for Video Editing !
4 Oscars until now. It’s a sweep guys.
Simon Beaufoy won Oscar for best adapted screenplay in the Danny Boyle directed movie Slumdog Millionaire.
It is about a young Indian slum kid’s life story from rags to winning in a “who wants to be a millionaire” gameshow.
India’s well known music director A R Rahman gets his first chance of winning the Oscar here after years of being ignored by the international community. It takes a UK or US made film for such a good music director to get recognised – the very fate behind the success of Slumdog while Indian made mother have been ignored. Rahman has several excellent music scores besides this in Malayalam, Hindi and Tamil movies.
Hope he wins more international awards.
Slumdog millionaire won 2 oscars for best adapted screenplay and cinematography until now.
I had just started blogging about the first win when suddenly they announced the second one too ! Wow !
I must keep blogging…
All sites will harm your computer
For a few minutes today (less than an hour), Google search showed all sites as having malware.
Now it seems to be fixed – but it’s more likely that google just turned off the filter. Sites which are malware and were previously listed are now not marked.
Maybe something went wrong at StopBadWare.org
Maybe they were hacked ?
Hope Google fixes this soon.
