Abstract This paper reviews the movie "8 Mile", a fictionalized version of the Detroit rapper, Eminem's life, where the white hip-hop singer overcomes the black skeptics with his undeniable skills. The paper discusses how the movie tells about growing up, how people relate to their peers and finding ways out of seemingly hopeless situations. The paper shows that the movie is not so much about Eminem's rise to fame, but rather revolves around the quest for respect. From The Paper "David Elliot (2002) compares Eminem to a young James Dean. Elliot speaks well of Eminem’s role by saying, ” he has a laser stare and a smart, gravely centered presence, even if it’s a stretch when he piles furiously into black guys double his size. Like Dean’s, Eminem’s rage and brooding is offset by tenderness.” His honesty in dealing with people who make fun of him and criticize his efforts depicts how a person can overcome obstacles and ridicule by working hard and persevering.
