   Is '8 Mile' a real movie?

   • We are hardly started in “8 Mile,” and already we see that this movie stands aside from routine debut films by pop stars. It stands aside from Britney Spears and the Spice Girls and the other hit machines who have unwisely tried to transfer musical ability into acting careers. Like Prince’s “Purple Rain,” it is the real thing.

   Is '8 Mile' based on a true story?

   • Even though the protagonist is named Rabbit, the thoughtful "8 Mile" is a raw version of the rapper's own success story. This is basically an 80's go-for-it movie (the picture feels like some odd combination of "Flashdance" and "Purple Rain"), and Curtis Hanson has done a fine job of giving it a soul, though it's a gloomy, peeling-paint one.
