As soon as I start watching Tsotsi, I couldn't stop thinking about Slumdog Millinaire. Both films have similar elements: tough childhoods, male characters, poverty, and music. The music in Slumdod Millionaire is fantastic! A. R. Rahman knows how to please our ears. I was surprised that Tsotsi and Slumdog Millionaire has almost the same opening scene. I couldn't find the opening scene of Slumdog Millionaire on Youtube, but if you own the movie, please check it out!
In Tsotsi, I couldn't stop crying when Tsotsi find redeems himself by returning the baby to the parents. The song is beautiful! It definitely adds emotion to the scene. There is no dialogue, just music. What a powerful scene indeed. Despite the fact that the film has many songs, the one that has no lyrics are the ones that I love the most. The whole soundtrack represents South Africa.
This movie reminds me of Slumgdog as well. Mimi
