Get Trailers Or Die Tryin’

As Hollywood goes into disaster relief mode, film news has understandably slowed to a trickle. However, those good folk in Tinseltown are at least still providing us with the odd trailer to keep us going, so here we go. First up is Jim Sheridan's Get Rich Or Die Tryin', starring 50 Cent, which you can see here. Like the similarly themed 8 Mile, the film follows a would-be rapper whose life fails to live up to his expectations. Unlike the Eminem film this is the (semi-autobiographical) story of someone who was selling drugs at the age of 12, and was shot nine times when he tried to leave the street life to pursue a musical career.
