When Labour released their latest election broadcast, ‘Ed Miliband: A Portrait’, earlier this week, one person (and presumably only one person) was struck by the similarities of the cinematography and message to the 2002 film ‘8 Mile’.
Given that no one else will have accepted the Ed Miliband/Eminem comparison, this person has now taken it upon themselves to prove their theory by setting the broadcast to ‘Lose Yourself’.
And you know what? It works.
“If you had one shot, one opportunity, to sieze everything you ever wanted – one moment – would you capture it? Or just let it slip?”
