”8 mile” I think the story starts with a flop at “The Shelter” for Jimmy‚ to show his development during the movie as he gets accepted in the end. “The Shelter” is a little battle place in Detroit and it is marked by the environment which is dirty and poor. All the people who normally go there come in groups and they are black.

"The birds sat comfortably in groups‚ and they were envied by some in the dinghy‚ for the wrath of the sea was no more to them than it was to a covey of prairie chickens a thousand miles inland."

However‚ this noble act is detrimental‚ as this act of compassion tragically costs him his life.Johnston’s outlook is in
