Movie-watchers are sharing their love for the non-actors who gave surprisingly strong performances, from Eminem in 8 Mile to Kevin Garnett in Uncut Gems.

Someone was quick to point out that Eminem famously stated that he didn't enjoy making the movie and had no interest in being an actor, despite his critically acclaimed performance.
