Danny Boyle

Danny Boyle spotlights a few songs he thinks were misused in movies, “wasted genius” as he says, while also highlighting three major music movements that were a part of his life in the UK. He throws in a haunting track by a true indie collective and insists that no playlist is complete without a “disposable pop” song. Boyle recently won a Golden Globe award for his direction of the film Slumdog Millionaire.
