Watch The Pursuit Of Happyness (2006) Now: AAN.SonyPictures.com/ThePursui...
Will Smith stars in this moving tale inspired by the true story of Chris Gardner, a San Francisco salesman struggling to build a future for himself and his 5-year-old son Christopher (Jaden Smith). When his girlfriend Linda (Thandie Newton) walks out, Chris is left to raise Christopher (Jaden Smith) on his own. Chris' determination finally pays off when he lands an unpaid internship in a brutally competitive stockbroker-training program, where only one in twenty interns will make the cut. But without a salary, Chris and his son are evicted from their apartment and are forced to sleep on the streets, in homeless shelters and even behind the locked doors of a metro station bathroom. With self-confidence and the love and trust of his son, Chris Gardner rises above his obstacles to become a Wall Street legend. - Фільми й анімація
Watching that as a 15 year old I didn't understand, now I'm in my 30s and I'm bawling my eyes out because I know how much being hired really means.
dawg this market rn lmfao
And if it's a good job that's going to pay all your bills and not be behind anymore paying half now half later smh
He was just so happy because of everything he went through to get where he was at. He went through so much. Most people would have given up.
@@springroll58something I noticed most people have forgotten is being grateful for at least having a job and being able to put food on the table with a roof over there head, despite of how difficult it may be building wealth. I even forget to be grateful for the little things sometimes.
Fr thooo
This is, by far, Will Smith's greatest acting role. The range of emotions he goes through is impressive. The fact it is based on a true story is also amazing.
He was robbed of an oscar
And then to think that probably they filmed it multiple times, perhaps with different variations, etcetera.
This and 7 Pounds (also Will Smith movie) are excellent movies.
Definitely. Collateral beauty is another amazing acting job he did.
Fresh prince clears
He is holding his tears back .. when he said no.. sir it wasn't easy... He ment his struggle for happiness..
No shit
Thanks we got it 😒
I had a very similar moment after I opened up business after 5 years going back to school doing my volunteer work doing my part time job and my full-time job while taking care of my disabled father.
Just being able to open up shop and having the opportunity to finally sleep normal. And seeing business returns that you control and a reasonable work-life balance finally show up with a clean and safe apartment after moving out of a shithole with rats and cockroaches with a little savings to boot. It really does make you want to cry.
I mean who wants to admit their wife has been pumped by their son’s friend? Oh you meant the character.
Thanks for that Sherlock. I didn't actually watch the video, I came straight to the comments.
I just got word that a company I interviewed with recently is sending me an offer letter and I came here to watch this scene because this is exactly how I’m feeling right now.
Congrats buddy.
Congratulations man ! You’re gonna do big things
same thing happened to me today and will portrays this feeling perfectly!
Congratulations!
@@wrinthiak3431 thank you so much! It made me realize I was worth more and deserved so much more compared to my previous job.
The actors that played the bosses and leaders were amazing in their roles. You can literally see the silent glimpse of joy and appreciation on their faces and on the smiles, while trying to stay professional as they give Chris the good news.
💙
True but literally doesn't need to be used as much as it is in the comments
agreed. this movie absolutely nailed their casting.. it’s just so perfect. & not to sound too hyperbolic, but overall i think it has some of the best - yet most subtle - acting in cinema history
I made ur comment a 1K like 😂😂😂
@@beukenphom3680 dang! How did you do that?
Every day, thousands of Americans go through that same range of emotions. Fear of being told no, the relief of hearing the good news, the elation that everything will work out now... Whether it's a new job, marrying the love of your life, welcoming a new child into the world, finding out you've done something others considered impossible.... it's a great feeling, and this mans story should be held up as an example: Yes, life is tough, it will beat you down at times, but if you can stick it out, push through the tough times... your perseverance will pay off.
amen to this 👍
All over the world.
people*
Why only in USA ? Say it every person on earth man
Not to be that guy, but Americans have it a lot easier than the average person on earth. But I still see so many American youth being oblivious to this and making mountains out of molehills
How didn't he get an Oscar for this? His acting is next level
He was actually nominated for this role for an Oscar but unfortunately didn’t win 💔
always is
He didn't slap Chris Rock probably.
The real shame of it is that because of that slap, it’s a real possibility that he’ll never be nominated for an Oscar again even if he dominates on the big screen
His best movie, hands down.
The bathroom scene gets me..
As a father it gets me straight to the heart!
A real father does everything to keep their kids safe.
Yeah, that scene fucks me up every time
It is the reason why I never watched the movie again. After my son was born, that scene meant so much more to me, and I couldn't bear that scene anymore, nor could I bear the thought of being in such a position.
Yeah it's fucked haha.
But the whole movie is a work of art, I think the scene is a good thing to remind you of how bad things could really be. Reminds you why you go to work every day, even if you hate it
@@leroystokes8501
Absolutely!!
That was the hardest scene for me. We saw this in theaters while my wife was pregnant with our first child. As a Bay Area native, the thought of being reduced to hiding out in a BART station bathroom with your son was heartbreaking. I cried real man tears that day.
I just accepted and signed my offer letter after 1.5 years of unemployment!! I felt happy for the first time in a long time.
Congrats buddy
Congratulations!
Will smith is actually an outstanding actor. One of the best of our lifetime. Its a shame that we had to see his personal life and everything manifest the way it did a year ago. Hopefully I can go back to just appreciating his acting one day. His personal life is none of my business.
He can absolutely redeem himself, he just needs to get rid of Jada and publicly own up to his actions. He's got plenty of more time to find genuine happyness.
He's a violent thug and lucky that charges weren't brought against him.
@@ScratchySlide😂😂😂 really? Smh
@@seaniveroni5579 Yes. Do you think assaulting people and then crying about it is acceptable? I realise violence is part of his culture, but it certainly wasn't justified. SMH.
@@ScratchySlidewhat culture lol? If you call that slap "violence" then you're just a cry baby
We need to start telling the stories of men and women like Christopher Gardner a whole lot more, our youth are so hopelessly lost and have fallen into darkness.
It goes against the narrative. They prefer young black folk thinkin success is impossible because of the 'evil white man' and become dependent on government... lifetime voters
I second this. It's really hard out there right now and this about all the kids and young adults know. I hope we can enter a new phase soon with everyone just being happier and better taken care of.
Chris Gardner is a Superhero.
An Absolute Role Model for all.
Agreed
@@doronstauber7285he is. It took him a lot of guts and hard work to get where he is now. But he was lucky enough to accomplish his achievements at a time where guts and hard work might have been enough. Now? Even that is usually not enough in this day and age when the next generation are suppressed by a system that doesn’t want them to excel and ensures that they don’t.
I just completed my first week of work at my new job yesterday. I know exactly how this feels. I get my first week’s pay the end of next week. 👏👏👏
Good job. Keep your eyes on the prize and show them what you're good at.
knowing everything this man went through with his son, life and work made this ending so well deserved I'm balling my eyes out!
The scene that broke me, was the subway bathroom scene!....I was dating my now wife, took her to see this, I had to pretend to go get snacks, I was about to break....lol!
@@stryfetc1471😂👌
He should have won an Oscar for this one to.
Chris rock round 2
@@blankblank8642Why😂🙌
he ruined the most important night of his life already
The most heart warming film of all time. Thank you Will Smith.
thank you? the man assaulted Chris Rock and humiliated himself in front of the entire world for literally no reason just pure stupidity
He's a violent thug.
It sure is! Thus why I have only watched it once some movies tug at your heart strings and take you through a range of emotions that they are tough to watch again because you know what you’re getting yourself into 😅
I experienced something like this laid off, on 07/13 I was offered a position and I’m making far more money than I imagined. When I got in my car I said a prayer, called my dad and told him I got the job and I cried. God is great!
Been struggling to find work after losing my job several months back. Right now I feel super down about it I watched this movie again after years since it’s what was on. Honestly my faith in my self has been restored and this movie was exactly what I needed. I’ll keep trying because I’ll get there one day!
I'm in a similar position with different circumstances. Work towards work again one day at a time. Remember to take care of yourself too.
Both of y’all will find something keep the faith alive - good luck from New York
Waiting for a report back, good luck trooper o7
Just keep going.
Never give up!
This might be one of the best ends to a movie of all time
Will smith deserved Oscar for this movie.This is a not just a movie it's an illustration of the journey of the struggling people like us.
The fact he didn't win an Oscar for this role is criminal
um he is a criminal. the man assaulted Chris Rock and humiliated himself in front of the entire world for literally no reason just pure stupidity
@@kellymulderino7156 And? What does that have to do with this?
everything @@LuisPerez-5
@@kellymulderino7156 That is not an answer. And it makes no sense to bring it up given the fact this movie came out WAY before that happened.
its all relative as they say @@LuisPerez-5
To this day, still the one scene of any movie that makes me cry like I've never cried before. It's so damn sad in the best possible way. I love it. That level of exhaustion, that feeling of finally winning. To being able to do all the things you ever thought. That has to be so euphoric.
Good for him. An amazing portrayal of what a man, and anyone for that matter, can go through.
For me it's Forrest Gump when he's reading the letter to Jenny at her grave. Every time it gets me
Being a 32 this year, have a wife and 1 child, an unemployed, really pulled me of to watch this..
This movie should be mandatory to show at every elementary school kids need to learn about the pursuit of happiness
When I was in the 3rd grade around the time when this movie was actually airing in theaters. We actually went on a Field trip to go see this movie.
Only those who have lived this moment in their lives would actually know what that emotion actually means !! Absolute genius !
The call he made before he was told of his hire can clearly show his positive attitude towards his work. This changed my mindset and work ethic. Ever since I’ve added the “thank you” call, I’ve received so many compliments and positive feedback. Sometimes it’s that simple.
100% ive used that in my field of work and people will definitely come back to you or send you referal work. I try once a week to follow up on previous customers
The brilliant, arresting, hypnotic performance of this great actor is well supported by camera work, capturing simultaneously the oblivious world of ringing phones, endless chatter, busy movements of suited workers contrasting with the deeply emotional struggle of a man who is about to learn what hard work can achieve. The hiring managers, while happy for him, do not disturb his moment of victory. They shake his hand and leave the man to breathe the well earned victory.
And then he throws all that credibility away with one slap.
Thanks Captain Obvious
wtf is this comment lol, did ChatGPT write this? Sick of these weirdo bots from India, stop polluting the internet
I just got laid off a month ago, from a job of 20 years, cuz they went bankrupt. Its scary starting over and change can be intimidating. All we can do is keep trying and never give up.
Hope it worked out !
This has to be one of the most uplifting moments in film history. Where theres a will theres a way no pun intended.
I would never forget the day that I lost my job at school during pandemic COVID-19. I pray and patience for waiting until the school ever opens again. I work with my dad for tree service, weeding, and landscaping. After two years that I saved my money to find a home. I heard the school is opening again. I began to apply for job opportunity. But it was full and they don’t want new teachers. I was in Southern California. My parents suggested to me that Washington state has a big opportunity. I applied it at King County, Washington. I got the job at school. I am the preschool teacher. I am home. ✏️📓🖍️🧑🏫
Awesome 👏🏾. Love this!
whenever i watch this scene tears rolls down on my check
😢 yup...me too
Your butt checks
Will Smiths best ever film. Beautiful
too bad he ruined the most important night of his life over some stupid bs
Seen it 900 times.... still bawling!
When you have that feeling that you made it and can provide for your family and have the satisfaction of knowing you are valuable and skilled and wanted, it is the ultimate rush of happiness. Inspirational.
Brilliant direction choice having him submerged in the stream of people at the end. It makes his physical joy really stand out all the more.
This movie shows that you're gonna go through trials and tribulations. U just gotta keep the faith cause God knows everything
I watch this as a kid and went thru this as an adult, & to watch it again from a different perspective gives me a whole new type of appreciation for Will Smiths performance. Until you have experienced this feeling of struggle and uncertainty, you will never understand.
He shook 3 hands when he walked in but shook 4 when he was walking out
His manager, I presume, was the 4th (the guy who asked him to come into the room) -- he didn't shake his hand on the way in
Never in your life should you stop fighting. Troll Will all you want but he delivered this message in a form no one else could ever. Amazing actor.
This part was hit hard. When he got asked "are you nervous?" Straight answer "I'm ok" - after all the experience he been thru and going thru, losing the spot on job will not hurt him. What a scene
100% should have gotten the Oscar for this
The soft piano coming in aa the releave of happyness builds up within him is just beautiful
I liked how Frakesh let him hang up the phone first before calling him up to the boardroom. And even the bathroom scene when Jay says he's done a great job. Just shows that they been watching him and knew Chris would be the winner of the position
This is one of my favorite scenes of all time from any tv/movie/media. How relatable it is for everyone who has ever been through the struggle and made it out the other side. Tgat something as mundane as a job offer can mean so, so much. Can validate all the hard work, sacrafice, the utter loneliness, and how terrifying that fear of failure can be when failure means you can't eat. To everyone who's experienced this kind of joy, I, too, am happy for you in your success. To those who aren't there yet, stay strong! I'm rootin for you.
watching both my mom and dad work there asses off to get their jobs/career they have now made me appreciate this movie more.
I have a job interview on the 27th I'm praying I get. It would be life changing for me and I hope to finally experience what he felt.
YOU WILL GET IT!!!!! I PRAY TO GOD THAT YOU WILL !
@Mmmkay10 that honestly means so much to me , you have no idea. Thank you 🙏🏾
yo how’d it go?
@theantrules6436 I felt I did horrible...I feel defeated. I just have to wait the next few days to see what happens
@@engitions gl dude hope u make it!
I saw this movie being shot on the streets of San Fran in August '05. Will Smith was great with the crowd off camera. Top bloke.
This scene makes me cry it's like everything he's worked hard for finally came true for him
Same thing is happening to me, this expression on his face and the feeling of joy is real.
Getting back to this. Def needed this. About 6 months away from my masters while working full time. Nowhere near as hard as other people’s lives but the pursuit of happiness is what keeps me present and keeps me enjoying the struggle.
Hope this can help someone else. Keep your heads up
Wills Smith you made us have tears in eyes….this whole movie….it was you….not one of ur best performance…but it is THE PERFORMANCE….10000 claps and love from India..
This kind of moment is everything we all wait for. Can’t think of a better movie scene that exhibits this kind of happiness & relief
I can’t watch this without crying. I’m so happy for Chris and proud of Will in this role. One of my idols
Love that he just couldn't wait to celebrate with his son, great movie about never giving up.
I think it's vool that Will looks like an extra when he walks out to the crowd. He's having the most profound life changing moment of his life, after years of struggle, and he's just one of many. If you were one of those people on the sidewalk you might glance over and ask, what's up with that guy, and go about your business. You never know the stories and struggles of those around you.
This is how I’m feeling at this exact moment. I just paid my house in four years. Four years of tears, having two jobs, missing many things with my children, feeling tired and exhausted all the time. 4 years of not having a day for myself, 4 years of struggle, hardships, not being able to make it to parties, reunions, and many times not even having time to eat. Thank God all mighty
Another recession coming keep fighting bro you got this
His humbleness is sublime.
More people should look at Life the way Chris does ❤️
I love will not only as an amazing actor but as a human too,may God bless him with all the happiness hr deserve.
When I got custody of my son. This movie put it all into what I could never describe. You will never have to live in fear again, my baby boy.
That ending every time even if you try you still cry.
Anyone else come to this video every so often and cry everytime or just me 😭
Every time I watch this portion, find myself rejuvenated and morale got lifted, remain always fresh as if I am watching this the very first time...and it makes my day. Speechless acting.
Exactly how I felt when I got hired in the FDNY. Couldn’t hold back tears of fulfilling my dreams
cry everytime!! WILL SMITH was so amazing in this role and the ending makes me cry..when he walks by the the Man who is the story with his Son it is truly beyond words.
The last scene makes me cry every single time! I know how hard it can be to get a job and the excitement and relief when you get one!! ❤
In my opinion, no work he’s ever done comes close to this movie. He brought tears to my eyes multiple times.
I had lost my job in 2014 it was admist a very difficult time.. I was going through emotional turmoil and losing the Job didn't help... I went for an interview for a different organisation and at that time that was my only Hope as no one would offer me even as much I was making in my last company.. I remember waking up, having just a cup of coffee and riding to this place.. Nervous to bones.. Somehow things went my way... After about 2.5 hours of different rounds 14 of us out of 100 were called in a meeting room and were handed our 'Opportunity to Employment' letters as the initial offer only ce after submitting some paper work.. I didn't speak a word to anyone.. I went to the parking and cried.. It's been 10 years I am still with the Same organisation.. This scene is so close to my Heart
They captured that feeling perfectly!! On the way home from my life changing interview I got the call that I got the job so I pulled over in my truck because I was driving on mental autopilot at that point and I screamed and laughed like a maniac on the side or the road.
One of those rare performances that tears your heart out.
As a parent this movie hits different
Will Smith’s acting in this scene is one of the all time best. Incredibly delivered!!!
Still get teary eyed at this part til this day .. Can’t wait til I have a moment like this
This is another part of a father and a husband feeling of happiness when he know that he can provide better for his family
The best part of this is the way the extras on the street at the end of the clip really nailed their role. Every single one of them.
Bravo extras!
Wow, this scene is truly a tearjerker.
"This part of my life this little part is called HAPPINESS" 😊
Kids today all cry about stuff they don't deserve yet feels they entitled to , they don't know what it feels like to be truly happy when your hard work bear fruits..
This movie just takes you through a range of emotions.
This scene gives me chills... The result of hard work and dedication realized. Awesome movie!!!
I cannot get through this scene without the tears falling 😢Wonderful movie❤
As a Dad myself, it's a hard but great watch.
What I love is the difference in his walk going into the office and coming out after getting hired. Head up high and full of confidence and pride
Beautiful movie. One of his ultimate best films.
This feeling is heavenly.
The build up to this scene makes you feel like YOU got the job😢
I loved this man....his behavior at the Oscars followed by his inexcusable behavior afterwards just broke my heart.
I remember absolutely bawling over this scene in the theater. I really liked this movie.
Grown ass man here who likes to think im tough but i havent even watched the entire movie yet and already cried. Damn this movie got me good
This movie made me cry for the first time in years. That night he and his son spent the night in the bathroom... great movie by LEGEND Will Smith
this is the most inspiring and emotional part of the movie that made me always come back
World class actor that still somehow gets overlooked in 99 percent of(at least within my circle) “who’s the best” debates
The musical score at the end of the movie is outstanding and emotional
I can't watch this movie without bawling my eyes out . Terrific performance.
I'm going tomorrow for the first time to my new office to accept an offer for a company that I applied for six months ago. This just crossed my UA-cam
The fucking scene gave me hope during 6 year period. Still see the scene once in a while just to be humble and always remember how i get here its still ajourney but now am stronger than before.
- how proud the managers are of chris as he walks out, they’re all standing there watchihg him thru the glass
- when he gives chris back his $5!!! 😥😰😩 that $5 was SUCH a sacrifice for chris, speaking to the MANY he made to make a lasting impression as in intern
- when he says “would you like that chris?” like a proud father (which i always saw that particular manager as from day 1 when chris came in with paint & he asks “how has he dressed when you saw him before?”)
- chris being so pumped with adrenaline & nerves he can’t pick anything up without shaking/dropping it 🥹
such a powerful few minutes!!! ❤️
Finally got hired for a job after a year plus of searching and this scene played in my head. As much as I wanted to stop in the middle of the sidewalk and just let it sink in too, I was happy enough to just think about this scene, go home, call my folks and tell them the good news!
congrats
@@hxrshrxwxt thank you!
This scene after whole movie, completely destroyed me. I'm very emotional person, and actually something similar happened to me, when i got the opportunity to work in a position, which was (and still is) a dream job for me.
I hope, everyone will find themself in what they want to do and what fullfills their needs. Because this happyness will change your life and you will be the best worker on that position, because you know you dont want to lose that.
hello, I liked your story a lot. What is your job? :) I just got curious to see what makes you feel so fulfilled. All the best
@@adfbi hey man, dont want to be that specific right here... But lets say, that i was doing different job, that my dad wanted me to push into even had the school for it...

I watched this movie on Christmas day at the movies by myself and cried so much. Teared up just watching this scene here.
I never cried at TV or Film until I saw this scene, and haven't since.
No matter how many times I watch this scene it brings me to tears.
One of my favorite films. Can’t believe he didn’t win an Oscar for this performance.
