8 Mile
Very Good 66 Points 2002

Iconic rapper Eminem achieved pop culture immortality in this loose recreation of his emergence from the Detroit hip-hop scene. It’s been said that 8 Mile plays like a rap version of Saturday Night Fever. True enough, though it achieves greater resonance by profiling its own star and memo…

A Hard Day's Night

I’ve always just been a casual fan of the Who — I have lots of song favorites, but I’ve never known that much about the band itself. This documentary does a great job of putting you in touch with the band, its history, its music, and especially the personalities of the members Roger Daltrey, Pet…
