Some people and/or situations just make me sick. This is one of them. Granted they had no legal right to be there, that's fine and dandy. The problem comes with the film makers using them to make a film which they make millions off of, and the people go back to poverty. It wouldn't take much to pay them with a little piece of land of their own and a decent living space of their own and some cash for living a bit. Yet they don't. They can get by cheap. Or perhaps they are using them and their real lives to get at their agenda of exposing poverty in India, which to me is still wrong because that's what they did with the movie, or at least so I was told I haven't seen it, and now I'm glad for that. The whole thing makes me want to add a Nike swoosh to every dvd or poster of slumdog millionaire I ever see. It's the same thing. In fact it's worse, because Nike doesn't act like exploitation bothers them.

It does seem pretty sick, but then there could also be more to the story. Maybe those people refused compensation for there work. I don't know why you would, but I have heard of such people not wanting to give up what they're so used to. It should also be mentioned that fairly often kid actors in this country aren't compensated for their work either.
From our point of view this seems really sick and probably is, but I hope not.

I suppose that's possible, but recent developments have the slumdog movie makers buying places for the children and their families to live. Time will tell what happens (such as if the places are accepted by the people or not) i suppose, you could be right.
