Slumdog Millionaire was one of the most substantual films of 2009 and was a great success for director Danny Boyle who also directed Trainspotting, Danny Boyle is an english director and Trainspotting is undeniably British, this leads me to believe that Slumdog Millionaire is a British film even thought it had multi-national actors and was filmed in India. It was funded by the British film industry and was directed by a British director.
This is vastly compared to Somerstown which is British British British through out, with its grittyness and Britsh setting and actors, including Thomas Turgoose.
