This is a 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. When his wife Linda leaves him, Chris is left to raise Christopher on his own. Chris' determination finally pays off when he gets an unpaid internship1) in a very competitive stockbroker-training program, where only one in twenty interns will be hired. But without a salary, Chris and his son are forced to leave their apartment and 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 overcomes his obstacles to become a Wall Street legend. ( From sonypictures.com)
这是一个感人的故事,其灵感源自克里斯·加德纳的真实故事。克里斯是旧金山的一名推销员,竭力想为自己和五岁的儿子克里斯托弗打造一个未来。当妻子琳达弃他而去之后,就剩下克里斯独自抚养克里斯托弗。克里斯的决心最终有了回报——他获得了在一个股票经纪人培训项目中实习的机会,不过没有报酬。这个项目竞争非常激烈,20名实习生中只有一名会被录用。然而,克里斯没有工资,他和儿子不得不离开了他们所住的公寓,睡大街、去流浪者收容所,甚至把自己锁在地铁站的一个洗手间里睡。凭借着自信和儿子对自己的爱与信任,克里斯·加德纳克服了重重障碍,成了华尔街的一位传奇人物。
无论你是王公贵族还是平民百姓,无论你是家缠万贯还是家徒四壁,每个人生来都渴望幸福。然而,幸福却从来都不会从天而降,它可能需要你付出不懈的努力,才会慢悠悠地过来敲你的门。就像电影中的克里斯一样,虽然他和儿子的生活一度非常窘迫,但他始终没有放弃幸福终会来临的信念,并一直在为过上幸福的生活而不断奋斗着。终于,他得到了理想的工作,并和儿子过上了幸福的生活。在我看来,幸福没有原因可寻,它完全取决于你自己的态度与心境。追寻幸福的过程并没有那么容易,你可能会遇到重重困难与挫折,可能会心灰意冷。但无论如何,请你一定不要轻易放弃,请你务必要耐心等待,因为幸福没有捷径,你必须为之付出足够的努力,它才会一步步向你靠近。而当幸福终究来临时,你会意识到自己此前付出的一切都是那样值得,而且,是它们让这份幸福显得更加弥足珍贵。
You got a dream ... You gotta protect it. People cant do somethin themselves ... they wanna tell you you cant do it. If you want somethin, go get it. Period.
