My wife, who grew up in a large city, says that Eight Mile is incredibly accurate for people from larger cities and the “wrong side of the tracks”.

I’ve never really lived in a big city so I wouldn’t know.

That's a good one. Just watching Eight Mile, I felt parts of it resonating with the things I saw in lower-class urban towns. I wasn't necessarily a street hood growing up, but even in my limited experiences I could feel 8 Mile resonating.
