The Pursuit of Happiness
critical review >>
After i watched this movie, i was impressed by Chris Gardner courage and spirit to achieve his dreams from salesman to stockbroker. He was willing to be the trainer as stockbroker within 6 month without payment and he also tried to sell the medical scanner until the last scanner, when he want to sell it but unfortunately it was not working. He tried to repair it and it was successful. Chris Gardner should find another alternatives such as looking for part-time job besides putting an effort to achieve his dreams, at least he can be able to rent a shelter for his son and himself. Yet, i understand Chris situations why he was not looking for part-time job because of lack of time and theres no one will take care for his son when he was working at night. Chris Gardner wife's Linda also has her own desire and dreams, it is human nature. she was leaving her family and go to New York because she wants to improve her standard of living. She also has an intention to bring along Christopher with her but because her husband begging to her and promise to take care their son she give her trust to Chris and that shows her kindness. She also help her husband and play her role as wife when she payed house rent and working extra hours, this show her responsibility toward her family.
