It's taken me a little while to post this since I saw the movie the day it came out, the first showing they had where I live. Has anyone else seen this? It's such an amazing performance from Will Smith, and his son. The true life story of Chris Gardner. Anyone's thoughts on it? Even when I see the trailers for it now, the scene where he's walking down the crowded street clapping his hands, it brings me to tears.

Wow, great movie, if you haven't seen it and looking for something great to go see, this is your best bet. If you've got some time though, it's over 2 hours long, but it moves really fast. I'm not one to be able to sit for very long.

I think Will Smith has always been good since his younger days on Fresh Prince of Belair. Ya know what? I wouldn't be surprized if his son didn't become a Teen heartthrob.
Can't wait to see it! Our family usually rents movies on Christmas evening, but there was talk this year to hit a movie instead. Start a new tradition Pursuit of Happyness

TY, and NP, and YW, and all that other stuff

I'm not a movie person and for me to like something sooo long, it better be good, so you could believe me on this one. One worth buying, to me.
