Movie with a difference



These are the days when most of the movie content is related with either love and power. I got an opportunity to watch a movie, "The Pursuit of Happyness", with a different theme. It is regarding the soul which strives to prove his existence in this world without any compromise. Based on the true story of Chris Gardner, who secured an internship with a stock brokerage firm while homeless, the film stars Will Smith as Gardner and Smith's real-life son Jaden Smith as Gardner's son Christopher. Although the film differs from Gardner's real-life experiences in various respects, it recounts many of the unusual events faced by Gardner while pursuing the internship and caring for Christopher. Real essence of the movie is in keep struggling until you reach your goal. "Arise! Awake! Stop not till the goal is reached." - Swami Vivekananda
