The Pursuit of Happyness

"Don't ever let someone tell you that you can't do something, not even me! Alright? You got a dream, you got to protect it! People can't do something themselves they want to tell you that you can't do it. You want something, go and get it!"

That's what Chris Gardner (Will Smith) tells his son Christopher Gardner (Jaden Christopher Syre Smith) in the movie The Pursuit of Happyness (alternative spelling). This is one of the best movies of Will Smith I ever watched!

The Pursuit of Happyness is based on a true story of a business man, who struggles to achieve his dreams. During a period of time when everything going against him, his wife leaves him with their 5 year old son. Chris Gardner determined to provide everything for his son, no matter what. He enters an unpaid Internship program at a Brokerage Firm and keeps doing his small business of selling Born Density Scanners. He had invested all his family savings on this business therefore he had no other way of living. He had to sell his house and live in subway restrooms but he never gives up. At the end Chris get the job and starts his own Brokerage Firm.
