SYNOPSIS
The Pursuit of Happyness movie is based on a true story about a man named
Christopher Gardner. It is a movie by Gabriele Muccino, an Italian director. This movie tells about the struggle of man hopes happiness in his life. The story takes place in San Francisco, 1981. Chris Gardner has invested heavily in a machine known as a "Bone Density scanner". Chris must sell this machine for pay rent and daycare but Chris does not sell it. This financially breaks the family, bringing troubles to his relationship with his wife Linda, who leaves him and moves to New York where she has taken a job in a pizza parlor. Their son Christopher stays with Chris because he and his wife both know that he will be able to take better care of him. Without any money or a wife, but committed to his son, Chris sees a chance to fight for a stockbroker internship position at Dean Witter, offering a more promising career at the end of a six-month unpaid training period.
