The members of the motion Picture Academy are still filling out their ballots, but right now the Anglo-Indian melodrama Slumdog Millionaire is the strong favorite to win the Oscars for Best Picture, Directing and Adapted Screenplay. It has already snagged top prizes from the producers', directors', writers' and actors' guilds. It's also earned nearly $80 million at the domestic box office-far more than the combined take of three of its Best Picture rivals, The Reader, Frost/Nixon and Milk. (The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, which absent Slumdog might have been the film to beat, has grossed more than $120 million.) Though set in Mumbai, Slumdog has become a new American idol. The other films may as well sign up for Biggest Losers Ever.

机译：电影学院成员仍在填写选票，但现在，英裔印度情节剧《贫民窟的百万富翁》是赢得奥斯卡最佳影片，导演和改编剧本的最爱。它已经获得了制片人，导演，作家和演员协会的最高奖项。它在国内的票房收入也接近8000万美元，远远超过其最佳影片三大竞争对手《读者》，《弗罗斯特/尼克松》和《牛奶》的总和。 （本杰明·巴顿的《好奇案》（Curious Case of Benjamin Button）缺席了《贫民窟》，这部电影的票房已超过1.2亿美元。）尽管《贫民窟》设在孟买，但它已成为美国的新偶像。其他电影也可能签约有史以来最大的失败者。
