Warmest congratulations to Rank Fellow Simon Beaufoy on the award of a Golden Globe for his screenplay of the marvellous new film, "Slumdog Millionaire".   Simon has deservedly won this tremendous accolade with a script which tells a captivating story in a way which draws in so many strands of India's recent development.

There is an illuminating article here (from the Los Angeles Times), which describes Simon's emergence as a writer for the screen, via "The Full Monty", and his researches for work on "Slumdog Millionaire".

It's a brilliant film.
