Ron Howard Calls ‘8 Mile’ A ‘Really Terrific Drama’
Director Ron Howard gave his thoughts on Eminem’s debut acting role in ‘8 Mile’, giving the film a big thumbs up. “‘8 Mile’ is more Brian [Grazier]’s brainchild. Curtis Hanson directed it, so I’m more of a fan cheering it on,” he said. “When I saw the movie, all I can say is I liked the screenplay, and I loved the movie. It’s surprising. It’s going to be a little controversial, but it’s really terrific drama.”
