Details or Sample:
Will Smith plays the likable character, Chris Gardner in the movie, The Pursuit of Happyness. The movie is based on the book written by the real Chris Gardner but the content differs somewhat between the two. In the book, a good portion of the book revolves around the true story of Gardner’s dysfunctional childhood years and how it affected his relationships, perceptions, dreams and desires in his adult life. His determination to raise his son derives from the abandonment he experienced in his childhood while his own father was absent from his life and the abuse he endured by his stepfather.

The film did not reveal any background details regarding his troubled childhood but instead concentrated on Gardner’s present day struggles of trying to carve a career for himself and raise his young son, Christopher, played by Smith’s own son, Jaden Christopher Smith. The movie was entertaining and immediately drew the viewer into Gardner’s dilemma. After numerous career changes, Gardner has a burning desire to become a stockbroker however he has two things standing in his way. Gardner lacks the education needed to pursue his dreams and he is black – an era when it was uncommon to be a black stockbroker. After his relationship with his son’s mother breaks up, Gardner struggles to keep himself afloat financially while raising his son. He is presented with the opportunity to partake in an internship to become a stockbroker but there is no remuneration for six months while in training. To further complicate his decision, he is not guaranteed a job after he completes the training and the training cannot be transferred to another stock brokerage company.
