Pursuit of Happyness


Been a very long time since I thought about a movie as much as I thought about thee movie “pursuit of happyness” .. Read the review here a few days back and I had decided by then, whatever happens I have to see this movie. Finally got a chance to see it last weekend.
My advise to you is, if you still haven’t seen it .. please get off your seat and go watch. Its a total eye opener.
You really can’t ask for anything more from a movie, its not an entertainer .. its not a goody goody feeling movie .. its a movie that makes you think about how hard some people have to struggle to get the things in life that some of us just take granted. For me , it now ranks amongst my favourite fighter movies of all time .. Cinderella Man was another such movie and this one beats Cinderella Man in terms if sheer emotion and simplicity of theme and depiction of reality.

My favorate scene:
The one with Will Smith holding on to the door of the subway bathroom so that no one can open it to disturb his kid’s sleep because they didn’t have any other place to sleep in.
