The Pursuit of Happyness, a film by Gabriele Muccino, with Will Smith

20 January 2007

The Pursuit of Happyness: based on a true story. I loved the central character’s lateral thinking abilities. Often with little warning, he manages to devise excuse upon excuse, while lurching from one crisis to the next. And if losing your home and going bankrupt isn’t bad enough, Chris Gardner (Will Smith) is also trying to land an internship at a prestigious stockbroking firm.
