A review of the Pursuit of Happiness
“The Pursuit of Happyness” was released on the 15th of December 2006. It is a dramatic story based on a biography of Chris Gardner’s nearly one-year struggle with homelessness. Directed by Gabrielle Muccino, the film stars Will Smith as Chris Gardner, and co-stars Jaden Smith playing Chris’ son, Christopher Jr. For Will Smith’s performance in the film, he was nominated for an Academy Award and a Golden Globe for Best Actor. The ‘different’ spelling of the title, ‘Happyness’ is seen by Chris Gardner on the building outside the play centre is son attends, which Chris reminds the owners of the building multiple times that it is spelt with an ‘I’.
The film shows us the struggles Chris Gardner has with homelessness. He is bankrupt because he invested his life savings in portable bone-density scanners, which he thought hospitals would be interested in buying, but in the end hardly any doctors wanted one, as they considered it an ‘expensive luxury’. During the struggles, his wife Linda leaves to go to New York and Chris and his son are left in San Francisco with no income and living in a motel. Chris sees interest in become a stockbroker, but to become one he has to go through an internship. Meanwhile, Chris and his son are evicted because they can’t pay rent, and they are forced to go to a homeless shelter, and even one night had to sleep in the bathroom of the underground rail system. During his internship, he never once mentions his financial struggles and at one point he is asked to give one of his bosses 5 dollars for a cab, a sum that he can’t afford. After an intense six months, Chris is taken into the bosses’ office, and is offered a job as a stockbroker, the final scene shows him being in unbelief of the position he was offered and showing his happiness and gratefulness for the opportunity, Chris realises that his financial struggles are over as he now has a job with a regular income.
Christ was unfortunate, for he got a wife who was not understandable at all (though she has her own difficulties and was in bad luck with his business. But he was very fortunate also, for he got a son who was very thoughtful and, I think, tough life experiences always make a great person. It is said that this movie is inspired by a true story, and I want to say, this movie does inspire me a lot. What impressed me most are: Christ’s wife left him because of life pressure; Christ’s love to his son and Christ’s strong belief towards life. Through these, I know that it is not easy to be a good husband and a good Papa, since in reality, only love cannot only make everything. And I also learn that one has to strongly believe in himself, no matter how difficult the situation is, but of course, hard-working is indispensable.
在浩瀚无边的宇宙里,漂浮着一个巨大的红苹果,它是一个苹果星球。
在苹果星球里,住着一条胖乎乎的肉虫子。
它每天除了吃苹果肉,喝苹果汁,就是躺在苹果核中间的苹果洞里睡大觉。
有一次,它吃得太多了,一路啃啊,啃啊,啃到了苹果皮上。粉红色的苹果皮,被它啃成了半透明的。这时,它看见了从外面透过来的几束光亮。
“这是什么?”肉虫子想,“这墙壁外面一定有一些我没见过的东西。”它感到有些害怕,就赶紧又缩回了苹果核里。
可是,从此以后,肉虫子每天都会梦见外面的那个宇宙,每次的`梦都不太一样。有时,是红彤彤,暖洋洋的;有时,又是黑洞洞,冷冰冰的。它醒来之后,就越来越想知道,外面究竟是什么模样呢?
因为想得多了,睡得少了,它就觉得更饿了,它吃得越来越多,越来越快,最后,苹果星球被它啃得就剩下一层薄薄的皮了,而它却长成了一条很大很大的肉虫子。
终于,有一天,这层皮“啪”的一声破了,肉虫子从瘪了下去的苹果星球里钻了出来,它看见了一个无边无际的世界,四面八方都有星辰在闪烁,真是太美了!
可是,肉虫子却觉得有点透不过气来,它的身体里似乎有什么东西正在迅速膨涨,涨得它快要裂开了。“我快死了吗?”肉虫子颤抖着想。
就在这一瞬间,一条闪闪发光的银丝忽然从它的嘴里喷了出来。这条银丝越来越长,长得缠住了肉虫子,把它和苹果星球裹在了一起,变成了一个圆圆的、闪闪发光的银茧。
苹果星球就这样消失了。又过了很久很久的时间,从这个漂浮在宇宙中的茧子里,钻出了一只七彩斑斓的大蝴蝶,它衔着一颗金色的苹果种籽,向着宇宙的最深处飞去——它是要去寻找一片最宽广的土地,好种下这颗种籽,让它长成一棵开满花朵的大树,那时,宇宙间就又会飘起一阵阵苹果的香气……
