"Acting"

I've just read yet another article praising Eminem's performance in 8 Mile.

OK. Let me see if I understand this. Eminem is a white rapper from a poor section of Detroit who has issues with his mother and women in general. He had to struggle for acceptence in the music world.

In the movie, he plays the exact same thing.

I will believe that Em is a good actor when he plays something other than himself.

I will not care if Mr. Mathers is a good actor. He's a homophobic jerk.

Well, yeah. There is that.
