The Pursuit of Happiness
In San Francisco, 1981, the salesman Chris Gardner invests all the family saving in portable bone-density scanners. He believes he has made a wise decision because the scanners can give a denser picture than an x-ray machine though it’s a little expensive. However, they do not sell as Chris imagines, and even bring big troubles to him. As Chris goes everwhere and tries to figure out how to sell the scanners, his wife leaves him, he loses his house, his bank account, and credit cards. Forced to live out in the streets with his son, Chris is desperate to find a steady job.
Fortunately, Chris gets a chance to fight for a stockbroker internship position at Dean Witter. However, in the six-month training period he will get no salary, and there are 19ther candidates for this only position. Meanwhile, moneyless, homeless, Chris has all sorts of difficulties with his son. But he is very smart and hardworking, and he never gives up. Eventually, for his great efforts, Chris becomes a broker at Dean Witter and starts his career there. In 1987, Chris founds the investment firm Gardner Rich and becomes a successful businessman.
There are so many classic lines in this great film, from which I learned a lot. “You want something ,go get it! ” In reality, most of us have an equal opportunity, if we really want it , just do it. “People can’t do something by themselves; they wanna tell you, you can not do it.” Although we will come up against all kinds of difficulties, we must have confidence in ourselves and never give up.
In this film, I recognize another thing, which is Chris’s love to his son. Actually, all the efforts he does are not only to achieve his dream but also to give happiness to his son. Chris says “You have a dream, you got to protect it”.
