The Pursuit Of Happyness

The Pursuit of Happyness is a 2006 American biographical film directed by Gabriele Muccino about the on and off-homeless salesman-turned-stockbroker Chris Gardner. The story starts in 1981, with the home where Gardner is in a big trouble after investing his life time savings on a device known as the Bone Density scanner. He feels like he has made these devices. However, he is not able to sell them, as they are marginally better than the current technology at a much higher price. On top of that, one of these does not work, As Gardner tries to figure out on how to fix the faulty one and sell the others, his wife leaves him, and he loses his house, his bank account, and credit cards. Chris Gardner has big dreams for him and his family but it doesn't seem to come together for him. Gardner is desperate to find a steady job. Chris gets an opportunity to be a stockbroker but first he has to go through six months of grueling internship, which means no pay.

Chris Gardner moves through a lot of difficulties in these six months, which show in the film very sensationally. He approaches in a way different from others in the stock exchange and claims the top spot among the 20 of the other trainees. The story is complete portrayal of how a person leads his life beyond a number of leaps in his life.
