This year’s Olympic Games opening ceremony may have an East Galway inspiration because it is being organised by film director Danny Boyle whose mother hails from Balliansloe.

When it comes to rags to riches stories you either love them or hate them; some are just verging on nauseatingly sweet while others just strike the right balance between real-life grit and the hopelessly optimistic, Slumdog Millionaire falls into the latter category, thanks to the directorial expertise of Danny Boyle (Transpotting, 28 Days Later, Sunshine) and Loveleen Tandan.

If you are feeling the January blues and the world wide recession is getting you down not to mention the arctic weather conditions, then Danny Boyle’s latest movie Slumdog Millionaire is guaranteed to cheer you up.
