1. What kind of manager is Manny?Jimmy “B-Rabbit” Smith, Jr. (Eminem), wants to be a successful rapper and to prove that a white man can create moving sounds. He works days at a plant run by the North Detroit Stamping Company and pursues his music at night, sometimes on the plant’s grounds. The fi lm’s title refers to Detroit’s northern boundary, which divides the city’s white and African American populations. This fi lm gives a gritty look at Detroit’s hip-hop culture in 1995 and Jimmy’s desire to be accepted by it. Eminem’s original songs “Lose Yourself”

and “8 Mile” received Golden Globe and Academy Award nominations. This scene is an edited composite of two brief sequences that show Jimmy interacting with his manager, Manny, at the stamping plant
