      Isn't "Slumdog Millionaire" an Indian film? If so, I would bet Cillian HAS seen that and just doesn't remember.
      Update: Thank you to all who corrected me. It's based on a novel by an Indian author, but it's a British film with a British director.

      ​@@user-co1sv2bq5d To be honest, I didn't hear Cillian say anything like that, User-co. . So I don't really know what you are talking about and couldn't even guess what he meant. But could it be that you are referring to a different video, or perhaps that English isn't your native language, and so, with his Irish accent, you have simply misunderstood him?
      In this video, the only thing I heard him say, before he was interrupted by Djimon, was, "No, I don't think I have. I don't think I have. Which I know is a terrible thing to say ..."
      (Or something close to that, anyway.) And by "I don't think I have," I interpret him to mean that he can't remember ever seeing an Indian film, so he might have, but doesn't think so because he can't remember one.
      And as for "I know that's a terrible thing to say," I think he really meant it was an unfortunate thing to have to ADMIT to because it implies he might have a low opinion of Indian films and had purposely ignored them OR that he was maybe a lazy actor who hadn't kept up with all the films he should have. But in any case, he's simply acknowledging that his saying he's never seen one, or can't remember one, is probably going to imply something unflattering about either himself or about Indian films or film makers.
      I hope that helps, User-co, altho' I'm not sure my explanation is any clearer than his words were, lol.

He just simply hasn't been exposed to a lot of Indian films... It's not like evil... Not trying to pick him apart! Just a simple honestly no I have not, but I will definitely check those out..

Full of silly singing and dancing. I know what I like and that isn't it. I'll watch Scandinavian films any day, I think maybe it's the setting of them that I like.

I watched every movie available in the county library system. I have a large collection of DVDs, mostly Shah Rukh. I go to local theaters that show Bollywood films and I have been asked by Indian audience members if I like the films. They are amazing! I love the passion, the beauty, the music, the stories. And yes, I saw Bandit Queen. My favorites are the K movies…Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Kal Ho Naa Ho, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham and Kabhi Alvida Naa Kenya. Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi is a favorite. Since the pandemic, I haven’t seen any but I will. Love them.

This is absolutely appropriate for the lead actor of The Amistad to be sensitive and responsive towards the characters of the Bandit Queen. The Amistad is the tragic story of African Slaves, while The Bandit Queen is the tragic story of a Low Caste Dalit woman who struggled violently against the oppressive forces of society which tried to keep her down in a slave-like state of life. How very similar the two stories are!!!

      Huh? Very pompous of you to look down on Indian actors. There are many that act incredibly well - better than most Hollywood stars. Just cause it’s “Hollywood” doesn’t make it great. The host is Indian hence she asked. Some of you people are so odd
