8 Mile: The Abridged Script
FADE IN:
EXT. DETROIT
EVERYBODY wrongs EMINEM. EMINEM wrongs NOBODY.
EMINEM
All I want is to be a rapper.
People continue wronging EMINEM. Eventually, he realizes the people who wronged him the fewest number of times are his TRUE FRIENDS. He RAPS.

October 30th, 2007 at 10:49 amYep, Rod, you recognised the whole movie was a big cliche. A pretty well executed cliche, but still a cliche.
Kudos.

At something i saw before i read this script. The brevity wasn’t even the problem. The problem was it simply wasn’t funny nor indicative of the movie in any way.
Terrible. Try again!
