Eminem’s New Documentary Features Real Fan Mail
On Friday (Aug. 1), the film’s director and executive producer, Steven Leckart, shared photos of hundreds of pieces of fan mail that Shady received between April and August of 2004 and revealed that Em gave him access to the mail for the documentary.

There were drawings from young kids, confessional love letters, and heartfelt reflections about the profound ways Eminem’s music has genuinely helped people. A number of these real letters are featured in the film itself.”
