Slumdog Scores!

I have recently watched the movie "Slum Dog Millionaire".  I would recommend to all the movie buffs out there.  The story is of a poor boy  in India without formal education who enters the game show "Who wants to be a millionaire?  Surprisingly enough the boy was flawless.  How could this have happened ? Did he get lucky? Was it his destiny? or did he know the answers?

Did he cheat?  I wondered how he could have cheated that was my one question.  The movie is told in a unique way.  For every question that was thrown to "Jamal" there would be a section of his life that was told relating to the question.
