...wife. He describes his uncontrollable feelings on Say Goodbye Hollywood while bringing in expert witnesses to comment on his stupidity. A voice-mail message from his manager becomes a spoken interlude in which Eminem is scolded like an impulsive child: "I told you not to f_____ bring your gun around like an idiot outside of your home...
...film - fervently, fashionably left-wing. Take Michael Moore's Bowling for Columbine; a U.S. distributor did take it, for a healthy $3 million.
