Synopsis
The Pursuit of Happiness is inspired by a true story which began in 1981. The story
is based on a small family of Chris Gardner, his wife Linda, and their five-year-old
son Christopher residing in a modest apartment. Chris was a bone scanner
machine salesperson, while Linda worked for a laundry service. However, Chris
was unable to generate as much money as Linda had intended since the
equipment are too expensive for doctors to purchase. As a result of the financial
stress of everyday costs such as food, rent, and taxes, the couple frequently
quarreled. Chris was also fined for reckless parking, which they couldn't afford
due to a lack of consistent income. As a result of this dismal situation, Linda could
no longer endure the poverty and chose to leave Chris. In his hopeless
circumstance, Chris had to leave his home as he could not pay the rent.
His goal was to become a stockbroker hence when he
met one he realised how desperately he wanted to

become one. Hence, when he got an internship
opportunity at Dean Witter Reynold as a stockbroker
without any salary he took it. This exacerbated his
financial situation, again he was expelled from his
house, so he finally decided to stay at Glide Memorial
with his son as no rent was required. At the same
time, for their daily needs he had to sell one broken
bone scanner machine.

Plot him. Soon after, Chris and his kid were homeless and began
living in public areas (train station floors). His life seemed to

among other competent candidates.
Falling action:

must train for six months without compensation and pass the
stock broker examination. He is inspired to acquire the job
and works hard since he loves his son.
Resolution:
Chris obtains the position and becomes extremely successful.
