  The Pursuit of Happyness 《当幸福来敲门》

\

  In 1981, in San Francisco, Chris Gardner (Will Smith) invests his family’s savings in portable bone-density scanners which he tries to demonstrate and sell to doctors. The investment proves to be a white elephant which financially breaks the family and as a result, his wife Linda (Thandie Newton) leaves him and moves to New York. Their son Christopher (Jaden Smith) remains with his father. While downtown trying to sell one of his scanners, Chris meets a manager for Dean Witter and impresses him by solving a Rubik’s Cube during a short cab ride. Chris does not have enough money for the cab fare and flees the cab driver into a subway station where he barely escapes the cab driver but loses one of his bone scanners in the process. This new relationship with the Dean Witter manager earns him the chance to become an intern stockbroker……

  Concluding his internship, Chris is called into a meeting with his managers. His work has paid off and he is offered the position. Fighting back tears, he rushes to his son’s daycare, hugging him. They walk down the street, joking with each other and are passed by a man in a business suit (the real Chris Gardner in a cameo). The epilogue reveals that Chris went on to form his own multi-million dollar brokerage firm.

  已近而立之年的克里斯·加德纳(威尔·史密斯),在28岁的时候才第一次见到自己的父亲,所以当时他下定决心在有了孩子之后,要给孩子做一个好爸爸。但他事业不顺,生活潦倒,只能每天奔波于各大医院,靠卖骨密度扫描仪为生。他偶然间认识到做证券经纪人并不一定需要大学生文凭,而只要懂数字和人际关系。于是他就主动去找维特证券的经理Jay twistle。凭借自己的执着和非凡的妙语,以及一个小小的魔方的帮助下,克里斯·加德纳得到了一个实习的机会。但是实习生有20人,他们必须无薪工作六个月,最后只能有一个人录用,这对克里斯·加德纳来说实在是难上加难。这时,妻子因为不能忍受穷苦的生活,独自去了纽约,克里斯·加德纳和儿子也因为极度的贫穷而失去了自己的住所,过着东奔西跑的生活。他一边卖骨密度扫描仪,一边作实习生,后来还必须去教堂排队,争取得到教堂救济的住房。他看尽白眼,与儿子躲在地铁站里的公共厕所里,住在教堂的收容所里……但是克里斯·加德纳一直很乐观,并且教育儿子,不要灰心。
