Notas do Editor
- Sneha 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 alienated wife 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.

- Pallavi Without a salary, Chris and his son are evicted from their apartment and are forced to sleep on the streets. Forced at one point to stay in a restroom at a subway station. Other days, he and Christopher spend nights at a homeless shelter, in a subway, or, if he manages to procure cash, at a motel. Regardless of his challenges, he never reveals his lowly circumstances to his colleagues, even going so far as to lend one of his bosses five dollars for a cab, a sum he cannot afford.
