Movie's theme of how the working poor can become homeless is an important message
The Pursuit of Happyness was based upon the true story of Chris Gardner (Will Smith) and his young son Christopher (Jaden Smith). Chris and his family were part of the working poor. He and his wife Linda (Thandi Newton) worked but they struggled to keep up with the cost of living and were always behind in their bills. Once Linda left Chris and Christopher eventually became homeless. Their story is more relevant today than when the movie came out as the homeless crisis has exploded across America’s cities.<br /><br />Before the 1990s the majority of the homeless were called the hardcore. They were either mentally ill or had drug and alcohol addictions. There were a constant population out on the streets because many of them refused help and major cities were not providing enough assistance to begin with. Since then homelessness had changed with at least half now being poor people who simply can’t afford the rising rents and costs of houses in many of America’s major cities. Many of them like Chris actually work and are still out on the streets.<br /><br />The Pursuit of Happyness documents the problems Chris had that led him to lose his home. He was behind in rent, he owed taxes, he had his car towed away because he had so many tickets, and more. His wife worked double shifts as a maid at hotel while he tried to sell bone density scanners to doctors. The problem was he had a hard time selling them. That’s the reason why they were constantly behind in their bills. When Linda left Chris’ sole income couldn’t support him and his son and they ended up homeless.<br /><br />Chris’ time on the streets present many of the problems others in that situation face. There’s the shelters where people can only spend one night for example. They have to stand in line and get in before it’s full and then leave in the morning. He had to juggle his work schedule and picking up Christopher in order to make it to the shelter on time.<br /><br />The movie is powerful and touching and its message resonates with America today. There are many people like Chris who are the working poor and just one major problem can push them over the edge and into the streets. Will and Jaden Smith do an excellent job with their roles as well. They are an endearing father and son. There are scenes that will make you cry with their lows and high. It’s just another reminder of the struggles homeless people face.
