Lose yourself

I've been looking for a chance to watch this movie. The other night I was a bit high, and I was still reviewing movie reviews at 1 o'clock. Suddenly I saw this film, I looked for it on pplive, and then it was 3 o'clock. . . Obviously, I am more high.

Let’s start with the word 8 miles. 8 Mile is named after Detroit City's 8 Mile Street. This street is the dividing line between the city and the suburbs of Detroit, that is, the boundary between the white and black residential areas. I have always had a vague concept of what is related to racial segregation. Thanks to this ethnic college, I have a clearer understanding and experience of racial segregation. People always have reasons to exclude "alien", such as skin color, such as region (whatever reason...) So white and black, black and black began to tangle in that poor and unstable area, of course Tangle isn't necessarily a bad thing, like it makes rap music.

Then I'm talking about Detroit. When it comes to Detroit, it has to mention its music. Regardless of the period, the city's music has always come from its blue-collar class, and rap is no exception. at the same time. Detroit City is also the place where Eminem, the starring Eminem, grew up, which shows that Detroit is a good place to cultivate musical talents.

The film is Eminem's semi-autobiography, and Eminem personally participated in the film, which is full of appeal. Eminem should also often recall the "unbearable" years in the process of acting, so that he, who has become famous so far, is still deeply mired in the quagmire of racial prejudice for a long time. Despite this, he is still loved by his supporters. became "Great White Hope".

Eminem plays the little girl's half-brother in the film, and at first I thought it was his daughter, which is unlikely considering the fact that the story takes place in 1995. Although he is an older brother, Slim's performance in the film is more like a father. This also reflects Eminem's deep fatherly love for his daughter Hailie from the side (Hailie was born in 1995, by chance... the director did it on purpose)

The BR in the film (that is, the role played by eminem) is not very strong in life or work, and even a little cowardly (slim I'm too thin..) Whether he is fighting or swearing, he looks so powerless and desperate. , but the moment he stood on the stage, when the first words popped out of his mouth, the whole world was his. This is probably the true meaning of Lose yourself.

Yourself in at The lose of Better by You Music, at The Moment
by You own IT, IT you the let of Better Never Go

movie full of sex, drugs, violence, dirty lyrics, dissolute personal life, nothing is cynical attitude towards life curse (hence the R-rated film...), but all of this is just a foil for that particular era, that particular region. Without these external stimuli, how could such a rare superstar in the world be created.

B.Rabbit has been in a fierce psychological struggle throughout the film, should he take the opportunity or let it go? Who should be trusted? As he sings in the lyrics
Look !
If U had one shot
One opportunity
To seize everything U ever wanted
One moment
Would U capture it ?
Or just let it slip

......

You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime yo The

most memorable scene in the film:
1) BR was sitting on the bus in a dull mood, holding a few tattered little pieces of paper in his hand, writing lyrics. . . This is called creation~

2) When BR practiced rap at home, he looked up and smiled at his sister who was drawing~ (Would you like to be so warm..)

3) After BR won the championship, he was invited to host the future games of the bar together, but he Rejected
I think i just kind of need to do my own thing, man. A clear purpose and a bright future (with tears in my eyes)

    The biggest impression of this film is actually unexpected. Unexpectedly good, unexpectedly liked. After the victory, the back figure who walked into the alley indifferently was so tall and strong, what a youth film, you can see such astonishing growth at the end.

8 Mile quotes

  • DJ Iz: That's why brothers need to sign themselves a deal. I'm telling you record labels supply niggas with the kind of benefits they need.

    Sol: Dawg, we sign us a deal you can take the motherfucking benefits. We're talking Bentley's and Benjamins, not Blue Cross and Blue Shield.

    DJ Iz: No, what we need to do is save that shit up and put it into some savings bonds every week, stack it and build our own studio.

    Future: Savings Bonds?

    Sol: [to DJ] Let me ask you a question, Dawg. How the fuck are we brothers? We need fine bitches and fat rides, not no goddamn savings bonds.
