The Pursuit of HappYness:
One of the memorable movies that will linger my heart forever.An excellent heart breaking performance from Willy!Kudos for that. This was one of the true life depicted stories Will has acted after ALI. This movie is all about Chris Gardner, a struggling salesman who tries hard to sell bone density scanners for a living. His wife, desperate about the life works on a double shift for running the family. Chris has an eye on becoming a stock broker through an internship, which is difficult for a person like him. Due to this his wife leaves him along with the kid. Will fights back and gets back his son, played by Jaden Smith, Willy's real son. He has to be appreciated for his commendable performance matching his dad. Willy through hard work starts to prepare for the internship. He is forced to leave home with Jaden. His days become more miserable when he gets jailed for his car in non-parking area. His bank accounted gets empty due to tax seizures adding much misery. One such a time he stays in a toilet of a railway station for a night which shakes you altogether as he cries for the first time, having his kid sleeping beside him. He always wonders how the people around him can be so happy and he feels out of the blue. Willy has sported a different get up for this movie which exactly suits him as a struggling middle class man. He attends his internship interview straight from the jail with shabby clothes and makes the interviewers look at him so weird. There are a few good moments shared by the father and son regarding English vocabulary. Its like a gentle wind in a struggling life of Chris Gardner. The meaning of "possibly" and "probably" by Willy and the instance by son Jaden is funny and excellent.
Finally the day comes when he becomes a stock broker. Willy has surely excelled in his acting skills from previous movies. An absolute example being the last 2 minutes of the movie. His eyes turning wet after hearing the good news. The movie ends up when Will joins the happy people band on the streets on whom he wondered about their Happiness. It then becomes his HappYness!!!!! A movie not to missed and worth a watch.
