Time to get up, man.
- All right, Dad. - Come on.
Should be here soon.
- I think I should make a list. - What do yöu mean?
- For yöur birthday gifts? - Yeah.
yöu know yöu're only getting a couple of things, right?
Yeah, I know. Just to look at and study so I can choose better.
Okay, well, that's smart. Yeah, make a list.
Can yöu spell everything yöu're thinking of?
- I think so. - All right. That's good.
- How yöu doing in here, man? - Okay.
Can we go to the park today, after?
No, I gotta go to Oakland. Well, maybe, we'll see.
Give me a kiss.
I'll talk to yöu later.
Excuse me.
Oh, excuse me...
...when is somebody gonna clean this off?
And the Y? The Y. We talked about this.
It's an I in "happiness." There's no Y in "happiness." It's an I.
I'm Chris Gardner.
I met my father for the first time when I was 28 years old.
And I made up my mind as a yöung kid...
... that when I had children...
... my children were gonna know who their father was.
This is part of my life story.
This part is called "Riding the Bus."
What's that?
It's a time machine, isn't it?
Seems like a time machine.
That seems like a time machine. It's a time machine. Take me with yöu.
This machine...
... this machine on my lap...
This guy, he has a time machine.
He travels in the past with this machine and...
- it is not a time machine.
It's a portable bone-density scanner.
A medical device I sell for a living.
Thank yöu for the opportunity to discuss it with yöu.
- I appreciate it. - We just don't need it, Chris.
It's unnecessary and expensive.
- Well, maybe next... - Thank yöu.
It gave a slightly denser picture than an x-ray for twice the money.
- Hey. - Hey, baby.
- What happened? - No, nothing.
Look, I can't get Christopher today.
Oh, no, yöu don't, Chris. I'm back on at 7.
I know. I have got to go to Oakland.
So I gotta get Christopher home, feed him, bathe him...
...get him in bed, and be back here by 7?
- Yes. - And we got the tax-bill notice today.
- What are yöu gonna do about that? - Look, this is what we gotta do.
yöu see that car? The one with the pretty yellow shoe on it?
That's mine.
There's no parking near hospitals.
That's what happens when yöu're always in a rush.
Thanks anyway. Very much.
- Maybe next quarter. - It's possible.
I needed to sell at least two scanners a month for rent and daycare.
I'd have to sell one more...
... to pay off all of those tickets under my windshield wiper.
The problem is...
... I haven't sold any for a while.
Since when do yöu not like macaroni and cheese?
Since birth?
- What's that? - What?
- What is this? - It's a gift for Christopher.
- From who? - Cynthia from work.
It's for adults. Chris can't use it. She didn't know.
What are yöu supposed to do with it?
Make every side the same colour.
Did yöu pay the taxes?
No, I'm gonna have to file an extension.
- yöu already filed an extension. - Yeah, well, I gotta file another one.
That's... It's $650. I'll have it in the next month.
That means interest, right?
- And a penalty? - Yeah, a little bit.
Look, why don't yöu let me do this? All right, just relax. Okay?
- Come here. Calm down. - I have to go back to work.
Let's get ready for bed. Hey, put yöur plate in the sink.
A few days ago I was presented with a report I'd asked for...
... a comprehensive audit, if yöu will, of our economic condition.
yöu won't like it. I didn't like it.
But we have to face the truth...
... and then go to work to turn things around.
And make no mistake about it, we can turn them around.
The federal budget is out of control.
And we face runaway deficits of almost $80 billion...
... for this budget year that ends September 30th.
That deficit is larger than the entire federal budget in 1957.
And so is the almost $80 billion...
... we will pay in interest this year on the national debt.
Twenty years ago, in 1960...
... our federal government payroll was less than $13 billion.
Today it is 75 billion.
During these 20 years, our population has only increased by 23.3 percent...
Man, I got two questions for yöu:
What do yöu do? And how do yöu do it?
- I'm a stockbroker. - Stockbroker. Oh, goodness.
Had to go to college to be a stockbroker, huh?
yöu don't have to. Have to be good with numbers and good with people.
- That's it. - Hey, yöu take care.
I'll let yöu hang on to my car for the weekend.
- But I need it back for Monday. - Feed the meter.
I still remember that moment.
They all looked so damn happy to me.
Why couldn't I look like that?
I'm gonna try to get home by 6.
I'm gonna stop by a brokerage firm after work.
- For what? - I wanna see about a job there.
Yeah? What job?
yöu know, when I...
When I was a kid, I could go through a math book in a week.
So I'm gonna go see about what job they got down there.
What job?
Stockbroker.
- Stockbroker? - Yeah.
Not an astronaut?
Don't talk to me like that, Linda.
I'm gonna go down and see about this, and I'm gonna do it during the day.
yöu should probably do yöur sales calls.
I don't need yöu to tell me about my sales calls, Linda.
I got three of them before the damn office is even open.
Do yöu remember that rent is due next week?
Probably not.
We're already two months behind.
Next week we'll owe three months.
I've been pulling double shifts for four months now, Chris.
Just sell what's in yöur contract. Get us out of that business.
Linda, that is what I am trying to do.
This is what I'm trying to do for my family...
...for yöu and for Christopher.
What's the matter with yöu?
Linda.
This part of my life is called "Being Stupid."
Can I ask yöu a favour, miss?
Do yöu mind if I leave this here with yöu just for five minutes?
I have a meeting in there and I don't wanna carry that...
...looking smalltime.
Here is a dollar and I'll give yöu more money when I come back out.
Okay? It's not valuable. yöu can't sell it anywhere.
I can't even sell it, and it's my job. All right? Be right back.
- Chris? Tim Brophy, Resources. - Yes. How are yöu?
- Follow me. - Yes, sir.
Let me see if I can find yöu an application for our internship.
I'm afraid that's all we can do for yöu. See, this is a satellite office.
Jay Twistle in the main office, he oversees Witter Resources.
I mean, I'm... yöu know, I'm just this office.
As yöu can see, we got a hell of lot of applications here, so...
Normally I have a résumé sheet, but I can't seem to find it anywhere.
- We... - Thank yöu very much.
I need to go.
I'll bring this back.
- Thank yöu. - Okay.
Trusting a hippie girl with my scanner. Why did I do that?
Excuse me. Excuse me.
Like I said, this part of my life is called "Being Stupid."
Hey! Hey! Hey! Don't move! Don't move! Stay...!
Stop! Stop!
Don't move! Stop this...! Stop the train!
Stop! Stop!
The programme took just 20 people every six months.
One got the job.
There were three blank lines after "high school" to list more education.
I didn't need that many lines.
Try and sleep. It's late.
It's a puzzle measuring just 3 inches by 3 inches on each side...
... made up of multiple colours that yöu twist and turn...
... and try to get to a solid colour on each side.
This little cube is the gift sensation of 1981.
Don't expect to solve it easily.
Although we did encounter one math professor at USF...
... who took just 30 minutes on his.
This is as far as I've gotten on mine.
As yöu can see, I still have a long way to go.
This is Jim Finnerty reporting for KJSF in Richmond.
Hey, wake up.
Eat.
- Bye, Mom. - Bye, baby.
- Come back without that, please. - Oh, yeah, I'm going to.
So go ahead, say goodbye to it, because I'm coming back without it.
Goodbye and good riddance.
yöu ain't had to add the "good riddance" part.
Bye, Mom.
Bye.
It's written as P-P-Y, but it's supposed to be an I in "happiness."
- Is it an adjective? - No, actually it's a noun.
But it's not spelled right.
- Is "fuck" spelled right? - Yeah, that's spelled right.
But that's not part of the motto, so yöu're not supposed to learn that.
That's an adult word to show anger and other things.
- But just don't use that one, okay? - Okay.
What's that say on the back of yöur bag?
My nickname.
We pick nicknames.
- Oh, yeah? What's it say? - "Hot Rod."
- Did yöu have a nickname? - Yep.
- What? - "Ten-Gallon Head."
- What's that? - I grew up in Louisiana, near Texas.
Everybody wears cowboy hats. And a ten-gallon's a big hat.
I was smart back then, so they called me Ten-Gallon Head.
- Hoss wears that hat. - Hoss?
Hoss Cartwright on Bonanza.
- How do yöu know Bonanza? - We watch it at Mrs. Chu's.
- yöu watch Bonanza at daycare? - Yeah.
When? When do yöu watch it?
- After snack? After yöur nap? - After Love Boat.
I made my list for my birthday.
- Yeah, what'd yöu put on there? - A basketball or an ant farm.
- He says he's been watching TV. - Oh, little TV for history.
- Love Boat? - For history. Navy.
That's not the Navy.
I mean, he could watch television at home.
We're paying yöu $150 a month. If he's gonna be sitting around...
...watching TV all day, we're taking him out of here.
Go pay more at other daycare if yöu don't like Navy TV.
yöu late pay anyway. yöu complain. I complain.
Can yöu at least put the dog upstairs in yöur room or something?
Bye.
I was waiting for Witter Resource head Jay Twistle...
... whose name sounded so delightful, like he’d give me a job and a hug.
I just had to show him I was good with numbers and good with people.
- Morning, Mr. Twistle. - Good morning.
- Mr. Twistle, Chris Gardner. - Hi.
I wanted to drop this off personally and make yöur acquaintance.
I thought I'd catch yöu on the way in. I'd love the opportunity to discuss...
...what may seem like weaknesses on my application.
We'll start with this, and we'll call yöu if we wanna sit down.
- Yes, sir. yöu have a great day. - yöu too.
Hey, yeah, how yöu doing?
This is Chris Gardner calling for Dr. Delsey.
Yeah, I'm running a little late for a sales call.
I was wondering if... Yeah, Osteo National.
Right. We can still...? Half an hour?
Yes. Beautiful. Beautiful. Thank yöu, thank yöu.
Hey! Hey!
Hey!
This part of my life...
- Wait! - ... this part here...
... it's called "Running."
Hey! Hey!
Wait!
Hey! Wait!
That was my stolen machine.
Unless she was with a guy who sold them too.
Which was unlikely...
... because I was the only one selling them in the Bay Area.
I spent our entire life savings on these things.
It was such a revolutionary machine.
- Can yöu feel it, baby? - Oh, yeah.
yöu got me doing all the work.
What I didn't know is that doctors and hospitals...
... would consider them unnecessary luxuries.
I even asked the landlord to take a picture.
So if I lost one, it was like losing a month's groceries.
Hey, hey! Wait! Wait!
Hey, get back here!
Hey, man, I...
- Who's he? - He's that guy...
- Did yöu forget? - Forget what?
yöu're not supposed to have any of those.
- Yeah, I know. - yöu have two now.
Hey.
Hey, Mom.
One, two, three!
- That's a basketball! - Hey, hey. What do yöu mean?
yöu don't know that that's a basketball.
This could be an ant farm. This could be a microscope or anything.
- No, it's not. - There, there.
All right, come on. Open him up. Open him up.
- That paper's a little heavy, huh? - Yeah, but I got it.
yöu should've seen me out there today.
Somebody stole a scanner. I had to run the old girl down...
Whatever.
- What? - Whatever, Chris.
What the hell yöu got attitude about?
- "Whatever" what? - Every day's got some damn story.
Hey, Roy. Roy!
Can yöu beat yöur little rug when nobody's out here?
There's dust and shit all over.
- I'm trying to keep a clean house. - Hey, wait a second.
Look, Linda, relax.
We're gonna come out of this. Everything is gonna be fine, all right?
yöu said that before, when I got pregnant. "It'll be fine."
- So yöu don't trust me now? - Whatever. I don't care.
- Taxi! - Mr. Twistle.
- Yeah, hi. - Hi. Chris Gardner.
Yeah, hi. Listen. What can I do for yöu?
I submitted an application for the intern programme about a month ago...
...and I would just love to sit with yöu briefly...
Listen, I'm going to Noe Valley, Chris.
- Take care of yöurself. - Mr. Twistle.
Actually, I'm on my way to Noe Valley also.
How about we share a ride?
- All right, get in. - All right.
So when I was in the Navy, I worked for a doctor...
...who loved to play golf, hours every day...
...and I would actually perform medical procedures...
...when he'd leave me in the office.
So I'm used to being in a position where I have to make decisions and...
Mr. Twistle, listen. This is a very important...
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. This thing's impossible.
- I can do it. - No, yöu can't. No one can.
- That's bullshit. - No, I'm pretty sure I can do it.
- No, yöu can't. - Let me see it.
Give it here.
Oh, yeah. Oh, wow, yöu really messed it up.
Sorry.
It looks like it works around a swivel, so the centre pieces never move.
So if it's yellow in the centre, that's the yellow side.
If it's red in the centre, that's the red side.
- Okay. - So... yöu can slow down.
Listen, we can drive around all day. I don't believe yöu can do this.
- Yeah, I can. - No, yöu can't.
- Yes, I can. - No, yöu can't.
I'm telling yöu, no one can.
See? That's all I ever do.
yöu almost have this side.
Holy cow.
- yöu almost had that one. - I'm gonna get it.
Look at that.
yöu're almost there.
- 1710. - This is me.
Good job.
- Goodbye. - Yeah. I'll see yöu soon.
Where are yöu going, sir?
Excuse me, sir. Where are yöu going, please?
Two... A couple of blocks.
- Just flip around. - Okay.
Hey! Stop it! Hey!
- Where are yöu going? Come here! - No!
- No, no, no! - yöu asshole, give me my money!
- Give me my money. - Please stop.
- Please, please, please! - Son of a bitch.
Please! He should've paid yöu!
- Come here! - I'm sorry.
- I'm so sorry. - I'll kick yöur ass!
- I'm sorry! - Idiot.
I'll get yöu!
I'm going to kill yöu! I'm going to kill yöu!
Hey!
Stop it, yöu son of a bitch!
Stop him!
The doors are closing.
Please stand clear of the doors.
No! No! No!
No!
- Hello? - Hey, yeah.
Sorry I couldn't make it home on time.
- Chris, I missed my shift. - Yeah, I know. I'm sorry about that.
Look, I'm on my way right now. Are yöu all right with Christopher?
I'm leaving. Chris, I'm leaving.
- What? - Did yöu hear what I said?
I have my things together, and I'm taking our son...
...and we're gonna leave now.
I'm gonna put the phone down.
- Linda, wait a minute. Hold it, hold... - I'm going to leave. We are leaving.
It was right then that I started thinking about Thomas Jefferson...
... the Declaration of Independence...
... and the part about our right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
And I remember thinking.
How did he know to put the "pursuit" part in there?
That maybe happiness is something that we can only pursue.
And maybe we can actually never have it...
... no matter what.
How did he know that?
Linda. Linda.
- Hello? - Chris.
- Who is this? - Jay Twistle.
- Hey. - Dean Witter.
Yeah, of course. How are yöu?
I'm fine. Listen, do yöu still wanna come in and talk?
Yes, sir. Absolutely.
I'll tell yöu what. Come on by day after tomorrow, in the morning.
We're interviewing for the internships. yöu got a pen and paper?
Yes. Yes, I do.
- Hold on one second. - All right.
Hello?
- Chris? - Go ahead. I have one.
Write this number down so yöu can call my secretary, Janice.
- She can give yöu all the specifics. - Yep.
- Okay, 415. - 415.
- 864. - 864.
- 0256. - 0256.
- Yeah, extension 4796. - 4796.
- Right. Call her tomorrow. - Yes, sir. 415-864-0256.
- Okay, buddy. - All right, yes.
- Thank yöu very much. - We'll see yöu soon.
864-0256.
4796. Janice.
- Chris. - Hey.
Did yöu...? Have yöu seen Linda and Christopher?
- No. yöu catch the game last night? - No, no.
yöu didn't see that, 118, 1...?
Excuse me, did Linda and Christopher come in here?
- No, I haven't seen them. - 119-120. Double overtime.
Moons hits a three-pointer at 17 seconds left.
Wayne, Wayne, Wayne.
Can't talk to yöu about numbers right now.
- What's yöur problem with numbers? - 864-2...
- And yöu owe me money. - Yeah.
yöu owe me $14.
I'm gonna get that to yöu.
I need my money. I need my money.
Fourteen's a number.
Hey, don't yöu ever take my son away from me again.
- yöu hear me? - Leave me alone!
Don't take my son away from me again.
Do yöu understand what I'm saying to yöu?
Don't yöu walk away from me when I'm talking to yöu. Do yöu hear me?
- Do yöu wanna leave? - Yeah.
- yöu wanna leave? - Yes, I want to leave!
Get the hell out of here, then, Linda.
Get the hell out of here. Christopher's staying with me.
yöu're the one that dragged us down. yöu hear me?
- yöu are so weak. - No. I am not happy anymore.
- I'm just not happy! - Then go get happy, Linda!
Just go get happy.
But Christopher's living with me.
- Stop! - Did yöu hear what I said?
Christopher's living with me!
Hey. Come on, let's go.
- How yöu doing, Mrs. Chu? - Hi.
- Where's Mom? - Look, just get yöur stuff.
But she told me she was coming to pick me up today.
Yeah, I know.
I talked to Mom earlier. Everything's fine, okay?
Where do I sleep tonight?
Let me ask yöu something. Are yöu happy?
- Yeah. - All right. Because I'm happy.
And if yöu're happy and I'm happy, then that's a good thing, right?
- Yeah. - All right.
yöu're sleeping with me.
yöu're staying at home, where yöu belong, all right?
Christopher.
Hey, listen. I need the rent.
I can't wait anymore.
Yeah, I'm good for that, Charlie. I'm gonna get it.
Why don't yöu go two blocks over at the Mission Inn motel?
It's half what yöu pay here.
Listen, Chris. I need yöu out of here in the morning.
The hell am I supposed to be out of here tomorrow?
I got painters coming in.
- All right, look. I need more time. - No.
All right, I'll paint it myself.
All right, but I just... I gotta have some more time... I got my son up in here.
All right. One week. And yöu paint it.
Chris Gardner?
Yeah. What happened?
- Payable to the City of San Francisco. - Does it have to be the full amount?
yöu gotta pay each parking ticket, otherwise, yöu're staying.
This is all I got.
We verify at 9:30 tomorrow morning.
- What? - yöu gotta stay until this thing clears.
No.
No, I can't spend the night here.
- I have to pick up my son. - We verify at 9:30 tomorrow.
Sir, I have a job interview at Dean Witter at 10: 15 tomorrow morning.
- I cannot stay... - 9:30 tomorrow morning.
What am I supposed to do with my son?
- Is there anyone else who can...? - I take care of him.
Maybe we can go and have Social Services pick him up.
All right. Can I have my phone call, please?
- Hello. - Hey.
What do yöu want?
yöu gotta get Christopher from daycare. I can't.
Just keep him for the night and I'm... And... Just one night.
What happened?
I'll pick him up from daycare tomorrow.
I'm gonna go right... yöu can just...
yöu can drop him off and I'll pick him up.
- No. - Come on, Linda.
- Why yöu doing that? - No, I wanna take him to the park.
To Golden Gate after daycare tomorrow.
- How is he? - He's fine.
All right, just... All right, take him to the park...
...and bring him back, all right?
All right, just bring me my son back.
Okay?
Linda?
I'll bring him back around 6.
All right, all right.
Thank yöu.
Bye.
I'm okay?
Excuse me. Excuse me.
Yes, I did.
Mr. Gardner.
This way.
It'll be right over there.
What is the one like that one?
Chris Gardner.
How are yöu? Good morning.
Chris Gardner. Chris Gardner. Good to see yöu again.
Chris Gardner. Pleasure.
I've been sitting there for the last half-hour...
...trying to come up with a story...
...that would explain my being here dressed like this.
And I wanted to come up with a story that would demonstrate qualities...
...that I'm sure yöu all admire here, like earnestness or diligence.
Team-playing, something. And I couldn't think of anything.
So the truth is...
...I was arrested for failure to pay parking tickets.
Parking tickets?
And I ran all the way here from the Polk Station, the police station.
What were yöu doing before yöu were arrested?
I was painting my apartment.
Is it dry now?
I hope so.
Jay says yöu're pretty determined.
He's been waiting outside the front of the building...
...with some 40-pound gizmo for over a month.
- He said yöu're smart. - Well, I like to think so.
- And yöu want to learn this business? - Yes, sir, I wanna learn.
Have yöu already started learning on yöur own?
Absolutely.
- Jay? - Yes, sir.
How many times have yöu seen Chris?
I don't know. One too many, apparently.
- Was he ever dressed like this? - No.
No. Jacket and tie.
First in yöur class in school?
- High school? - Yes, sir.
- How many in the class? - Twelve.
It was a small town.
- I'll say. - But I was also first in my radar class...
...in the Navy, and that was a class of 20.
Can I say something?
I'm the type of person...
...if yöu ask me a question, and I don't know the answer...
...I'm gonna tell yöu that I don't know.
But I bet yöu what.
I know how to find the answer, and I will find the answer.
Is that fair enough?
Chris.
What would yöu say if a guy walked in for an interview...
...without a shirt on...
...and I hired him? What would yöu say?
He must've had on some really nice pants.
Chris, I don't know how yöu did it dressed as a garbage man...
...but yöu pulled it off. - Thank yöu, Mr. Twistle.
Hey, now yöu can call me Jay. We'll talk to yöu soon.
All right, so I'll let yöu know, Jay.
"yöu'll let me know, Jay"? What do yöu mean?
Yeah, I'll give yöu a call tomorrow sometime...
What are yöu talking...? yöu hounded me for this.
- yöu stood here... - Listen, there's no salary.
- No. - I was not aware of that.
My circumstances have changed some...
...and I need to be certain that I'll be... - All right. Okay.
Tonight.
I swear I will fill yöur spot. I promise.
If yöu back out, yöu know what I'll look like to the partners?
Yes, an ass... A-hole.
Yeah, an ass A-hole, all the way.
yöu are a piece of work.
Tonight.
There was no salary.
Not even a reasonable promise of a job.
One intern was hired at the end of the programme from a pool of 20.
And if yöu weren't that guy...
... yöu couldn't even apply the six months' training...
... to another brokerage.
The only resource I would have for six months...
... would be my six scanners, which I could still try to sell.
If I sold them all, maybe we might get by.
- I got him. I got him. - He's asleep.
All right.
Okay, baby.
I got it.
I'm going to New York.
My sister's boyfriend...
...opened a restaurant, and they may have a job for me there.
So I'm going to New York, Chris.
Christopher's staying with me.
I'm his mom, yöu know?
He should be with his mom.
I should have him, right?
yöu know yöu can't take care of him.
What are yöu gonna do for money?
I had an interview at Dean Witter for an internship...
...and I got it.
So I'm gonna stand out in my programme.
Salesman to intern's backwards.
No, it's not.
I gotta go.
Tell him I love him, okay?
And...
I know yöu'll take care of him, Chris.
I know that.
- Dean Witter. - Yes, hi.
Yes, I'd like to leave a message for Mr. Jay Twistle.
- yöur name? - Yeah, my name is Chris Gardner.
The message is:
Thank yöu very much for inviting me into the programme.
I really appreciate it and I'd be very pleased to accept yöur invitation.
Is that all?
Yes, that's it.
- Okay. - Thank yöu.
Bye.
- Be careful with that. - What?
Be care... Go ahead.
- Are we there? - Yep.
- Hey, yöu know what today is? - Yeah.
- What? - Saturday.
- yöu know what Saturday is, right? - Yeah.
- What? - Basketball.
- yöu wanna go play some basketball? - Okay.
All right, then we're gonna go sell a bone-density scanner.
- How about that? Wanna do that? - No.
Hey, Dad. I'm going pro.
I'm going pro.
Okay.
Yeah, I don't know, yöu know.
yöu'll probably be about as good as I was.
That's kind of the way it works, yöu know. I was below average.
yöu know, so yöu'll probably ultimately rank...
...somewhere around there, yöu know, so...
...I really... yöu'll excel at a lot of things, just not this.
I don't want yöu shooting this ball all day and night.
- All right? - All right.
Okay.
All right, go ahead.
Hey.
Don't ever let somebody tell yöu...
...yöu can't do something.
Not even me.
- All right? - All right.
yöu got a dream...
...yöu gotta protect it.
People can't do something themselves...
...they wanna tell yöu yöu can't do it.
If yöu want something, go get it. Period.
Let's go.
Dad, why did we move to a motel?
I told yöu. Because I'm getting a better job.
- yöu gotta trust me, all right? - I trust yöu.
All right, here. Come on, come on. Keep up.
Dad, when's Mom coming back?
I don't know, Christopher.
Dad, listen to this.
One day, a man was drownding in the water.
And a boat came by and said, "Do yöu need any help?"
He said, " No, thank yöu. God will save me."
Then another boat came by. Said, "Do yöu need any help?"
And he said, " No, thank yöu. God will save me."
Then he drowned, and he went to heaven.
And he said, " God, why didn't yöu save me?"
And God said, " I sent yöu two big boats, yöu dummy."
Do yöu like it?
Yeah, that's very funny, man. Give me yöur hand.
- Thank yöu very much, sir. - Yes, sir.
- yöu got the bill of sale here. - Yes.
All the information yöu'll need.
Thank yöu very much for yöur business.
Thank yöu.
One hundred, 200, 20, 40, 45, 46...
...7, 8, 9, 10.
Thank yöu.
- Hey, yöu want one of those? - No, it's okay.
Come on, yöu can have one. Which one?
- yöu like that one? How much? - Twenty-five cents.
This part of my life is called "Internship."
The 1200 building is Medley Industrial and Sanko Oil.
The building across the street is Lee-Ray Shipping.
In a couple weeks, yöu'll get call sheets...
...with the phone numbers of employees...
...from every Fortune 500 company in the financial district.
yöu will be pooling from 60 Fortune companies.
yöu will mainly be cold-calling potential clients.
But if yöu have to have lunch with them, have breakfast with them...
...even baby-sit for them, do whatever it takes to familiarize them...
...with our packages. We need yöu to match their needs and goals...
...to one of our many financial plans. In essence, yöu reel them in...
...we'll cook the fish.
Some of yöu are here because yöu know somebody.
Some of yöu are here because yöu think yöu're somebody.
There's one guy in here who's gonna be somebody.
That person's gonna be the guy...
...who can turn this into this.
Eight hundred thousand in commission dollars.
yöu, yöu, help me hand these out.
This is going to be yöur bible.
yöu'll eat with it.
- yöu'll drink with it. - It was simple.
X number of calls equals X number of prospects.
X number of prospects equals X number of customers.
X number of customers equals X number of dollars...
- ... in the company's pocket. - yöur board exam.
Last year, we had an intern score a 96.4 percent on the written exam.
He wasn't chosen. It's not a simple pass-fail.
It's an evaluation tool we use to separate applicants.
Be safe, score a hundred.
Okay, let's take a break. Be back in 10.
- Hey, Mr. Frohm. Chris. - Hi.
- Chris, how are yöu? - I'm good. How yöu doing?
- Fine, thank yöu for asking. - First day in there. It was exciting.
yöu're not quitting on us yet, are yöu?
No, sir. Ten-minute break.
Pop out, get a quick bite and then back in there for board prep.
Oh, man, I remember mine.
And ours were only an hour, not three like yöurs.
We didn't do world markets, didn't bother with taxes...
...and it was still a pain in the ass. Funny what yöu remember.
There was a beautiful girl in that class.
I can't remember her name, but her face was so...
I've seen an old friend of mine. Do yöu mind?
- No, go ahead. - Good talking to yöu, sir.
Hey, asshole. Are yöu all right, asshole?
Are yöu okay? What were yöu thinking?
What are yöu doing? I could've killed yöu.
I'm trying to cross the street.
- Well, yöu're all right? - Yeah, yeah.
- Where's my shoe? - What?
- yöu knocked off my shoe! - I don't know where yöur shoe is.
- Where's my damn shoe? - I don't know.
Hey.
- Did yöu see it? I lost my shoe. - No, I'm sorry.
Hey. Hey, where are yöu going?
- We should wait for the police. - I gotta go to work.
Hey, yöu just got hit by a car. Go to the hospital.
I'm in a competitive internship at Dean Witter.
Hey, man, yöu're missing a shoe.
Oh, yeah, thanks. Thank yöu.
Dad.
- yöu don't have a shoe. - Yeah, I know.
- Wanna know what happened? - Yeah.
I got hit by a car.
- yöu got hit by a car? - Yep.
- Where? - Just right by the office.
- No, where in yöur body? - Like, the back of my legs.
- Hey, goodbye, Mrs. Chu. - Goodbye.
- Were yöu on the street? - Yeah, I was running in the street.
Don't do that. yöu can get hurt.
Yeah, thanks.
I'll remember that next time.
And here I was again.
- Show up early. - While qualified persons...
...qualified persons are interested in investing and have money to invest.
- Now, Chris. - Yes, sir.
Would yöu get me some coffee, please?
Favours for Frakesh, our office manager. All day.
My name is Chris Gardner calling for Mr. Michael Anderson.
Yes, sir, we're having a lunch actually this Thursday.
Okay, next time. All right, I'm gonna hold yöu to that.
Okay, yes, thank yöu.
Who wants to get me a doughnut?
- Chris? - Yes, sir.
Feeling underrated and unappreciated.
Hello, Mr. Ronald Fryer.
Good morning to yöu, sir. My name is Chris Gardner.
I'm calling from Dean Witter.
Yes, I have some very, very valuable information on what's called a tax...
Okay, thank yöu, sir.
Then catch the bus by 4 to the place where they can't spell "happiness."
Then the cross-town.
The 22 home.
- Hey, Chris! - Hey. Hi, Ralph.
- I'm waiting. - All right, I got that for yöu, Ralph.
I'm gonna get that for yöu.
Whoever brought in the most money after six months was usually hired.

We were all working our way up call sheets to sign clients.
- From the bottom to the top. - Yes, sir.
- From the doorman to the CEO. - Okay.
They'd stay till 7, but I had Christopher.
I had to do in six hours what they do in nine.
Good afternoon, my name is Chris Gardner. I'm calling from Dean Witter.
In order not to waste any time...
... I wasn't hanging up the phone in between calls.
Okay, thank yöu very much.
I realized that by not hanging up the phone...
... I gained another eight minutes a day.
Why, good morning to yöu, my name is Chris Gardner.
- I'm calling from Dean Witter. - I wasn't drinking water...
... so I didn't waste any time in the bathroom.
Yes, I'd love to have the opportunity...
Okay, no problem at all, sir. Thank yöu very much.
But even doing all this...
... after two months, I still didn't have time to work my way up a sheet.
We're feeling really confident about that one as well.

That'd really help me out. It's on Samson, half block, silver Caprice.
Just move it to the other side. They're street sweeping. There's spaces.
Hang on to these. I have backups in my desk.
And yöu have to jimmy that.
- Jimmy what? - yöu have to jimmy the key.
And the other doors don't unlock. yöu have to jimmy it.
Come on, I'm jimmying it.
Oh, no!
Come on.

We don't have a car anymore.
Yep, I know.
I'm gonna need to take yöu with me this weekend.
A couple of doctors' offices.
- On sales calls, okay? - Okay.
Then, possibly, we'll go to the football game.
- Really? - Possibly.
- All right? - All right.
Come on, finish up.
- Are yöu sure? - Possibly.
Really?
- Are yöu bringing it to the game? - Yeah, I don't wanna leave it.
And maybe we're going to the game.
- Where are we going now? - To see someone about my job.
I don't understand.
- yöu don't understand what? - Are we going to the game?
I said possibly we're going to the game.
- yöu know what "possibly" means? - Like probably.
No, "probably" means there's a good chance that we're going.
"Possibly" means we might, we might not.
- What does "probably" mean? - It means we have a good chance.
And what does "possibly" mean?
- I know what it means. - What does it mean?
It means that we're not going to the game.
- How did yöu get so smart? - Because yöu're smart.
- Are we there? - Yeah.
- Mr. Ribbon. - Yes?
How are yöu, sir? Chris Gardner. Dean Witter.
- Oh, hi. Hi. - This is my son, Christopher.
- Hi. - Hey, Christopher.
- What are yöu doing up here? - I came to apologise...
...for missing our appointment. - yöu didn't need to come up.
We were in the neighbourhood visiting a very close friend...
...and I wanted to take this opportunity to say thank yöu for yöur time.
- I know yöu probably waited for me. - Little bit.
I want yöu to know that I do not take that for granted.
Oh, come on. What's that?
Oh, it's an Osteo National bone-density scanner.
A company I bought into prior to going to work at Witter.
- I have a meeting after the game. - yöu're going to the game?
- Yeah. - Possibly.
- We're going too.
I'm taking my son, Tim. My 12-year-old.
We were just leaving. Tim!
Listen, we'll get out of yöur way.
Again, thank yöu very much, and I'm sorry about the other day.
And I hope that we can reschedule for later.
- yöu got it. - Thank yöu very much.
yöu take care. Here, come on.
- Say bye-bye, Chris. - Bye.
Bye, Christopher.
Hey, yöu guys wanna come with us?
- What...? To Candlestick? - We're going now. Come with us.
- Where are yöur seats? - We've... We're upper deck.
We got a box. Come on.
- yöu wanna sit in the box? - No.
It's not actually a box. It's, yöu know, a private section.
It's more comfortable. yöu wanna go?
- Okay. - Okay, kids in the back.
Hey, why don't yöu just put that in yöur car?
- Yeah, okay. Sure, sure. - We don't have a car.
- Oh, my... - What happened?
I think I got stung by a bee.
- yöu all right? - Oh, yeah. Goodness. I'm fine.
- yöu're not allergic or anything? - No, no, no.
- Where'd he get yöu? - Just right at the back of my head.
- Are yöu okay? - Yeah, I'm fine, Christopher.
- Does it hurt? - Christopher, I'm fine.
- Let me see. - Christopher, sit back. Sit back.
Thomas Jefferson mentions happiness a couple times...
... in the Declaration of Independence.
May seem like a strange word to be in that document...
... but he was sort of... He was an artist.
He called the English "the disturbers of our harmony."
And I remember standing there that day...
... thinking about the disturbers of mine.
Questions I had. Whether all this was good.
Whether I'd make it.
And Walter Ribbon and his Pacific Bell pension money...
... which was millions.
Yeah!
It was a way to another place.
Wow, this is...
This is the way to watch a football game here.
- Thank yöu very much for this, really. - Hey, it's my pleasure, Chris.
And, Mr. Ribbon, I also wanna thank yöu for giving me the opportunity...
...to discuss the asset management capabilities of Dean Witter...
...which we believe to be far superior...
...to anything yöu got going over at Morgan Stanley.
Really, I think yöu're gonna be blown away.
Point blank, Dean Witter needs to be managing yöur retirement portfolio.
yöu know, I didn't have any notion that yöu were new there.
I like yöu, but there's not a chance I'm gonna let yöu direct our fund.
That's just not gonna happen anytime soon, buddy.
So, yöu know, come on, relax. Enjoy the game. Go, go, go!
Yes!
Yes! Yeah!
- Here yöu go. - All right.
I've had a few ideas already, absolutely.
- Chris, I'll talk to yöu later. - I'm gonna give yöu a call.
Nice to meet yöu, Chris. Give me a call.
Yes, absolutely. Thank yöu.
- Bye. - Bye, Christopher.
After four months, we had sold all our scanners.
It seemed we were making it.
What's the...
...fastest animal in the world? - Jackrabbit.
It seemed we were doing good.
Until one day...
... that day...
... that letter brought me back to earth.
This part of my life is called "Paying Taxes."
If yöu didn't pay them...
... the government could stick their hands into yöur bank account...
... and take yöur money.
Dad.
No warning. Nothing.
It can't be too late. That's my money.
How is somebody just gonna just take my money?
I was... I was...
Listen, I... That's all the money that I have.
yöu cannot go into my bank acc... No...
It was the 25th of September.
I remember that day.
Because that's the day that I found out...
... there was only 21 dollars and 33 cents left in my bank account.
I was broke.
- Dressed yet? - No.
Chris! Chris! Don't jerk me around, okay, Chris?
I'm not jerking yöu around, Ralph, all right? I'm gonna get it.
- I need that money now, not later. - When I get it, yöu get it, Ralph.
Now!
Hey, what's happening, man?
Wayne, I need to get that $14 from yöu.
I thought I didn't owe yöu that now.
- What? Why? - Why what?
Why would yöu think yöu don't owe me my money?
I helped yöu move.
yöu drove me two blocks, Wayne.
That's 200 yards.
It's been four months, Wayne.
I need my money. I need my money. I need my money right now.
- I don't have it, man. I'm sorry. - Go get my money.
- Wayne, get my mo... - I really don't, man. It's $14.
It's my $14! Go get my money!
- All of this for $14. - Get my money, Wayne.
Dad, look at me!

Did yöu hear what I said? Did yöu hear me?
- Dad, where yöu going? - Hey, what did I say?
Dad!
Dad, wait! Dad!
- Dad. - I gotta...
I gotta get back to the '60s, man. That's what I wanna do.
When I was yöunger. I wanna see Jimi Hendrix do that guitar on fire.
Bring back my time machine!
Bring my time machine back!
- Dad, where are we going? - Be quiet.
Go get yöur things. Go.
- Chris? - Yes.
Dr. Telm can't get back to meet yöu. I'm sorry.
Where are we going now?
We gotta... We gotta see somebody else.
I'm tired.
I know.
Doesn't seem to be functioning right now.
- I have to go now, Chris. - No, no, no.
Just give me a second. I'm sure I'm gonna be able to figure it out.
Chris. Chris, just come back when it's working.
- No, no. I have to fix it now. - No.
Look, I'll still be putting money in the office, then, all right?
I really have to go, Chris.
Thank yöu. Thank yöu.
Thank yöu for yöur time. I appreciate it.
I'll see yöu soon.
Why are our things here?
Dad.
- Let's go. Come on. - Where?
- Just out of here. - Why?
- We can't stay here tonight. - Yes, we can. Open the door!
- Did yöu hear what I said? Let's go. - Open the door!
Hey, did yöu hear what I said? Stop it.
Come on.
Wayne!
Get up. Stand up. Come on.
Where are we going?
- Dad, where are we going? - I don't know.
It's not a time machine.
Dad.
It's not a time machine.
The guy said it was a time machine. It's not a time machine. He was wrong.
- What guy? - The guy. He was at the park.
He said it was a time machine.
Yes, it is.
No, it's not.
- It is. - No, it's not.
All we gotta do is push this black button right here.
Wanna push it?
Okay.
Come on.
Come on, man.
Right here.
Wait a minute. Where yöu wanna go?
I don't know. Some place from before.
yöu gotta close yöur eyes.
yöu close yöur eyes. I wanna see.
All right, come on. We'll push it together.
yöu gotta close yöur eyes. Close yöur eyes.
It takes a few seconds.
Oh, my goodness.
Open, open, open!

- Where? - yöu don't see all these dinosaurs?
Look around. Look at all these dinosaurs.
- Do yöu see them? - Yeah.
Wait. Come on, come on.

No, no, no. I'm gonna be right outside the door.
All right? I'm just gonna be right there. I'll leave the door open a little bit.
And I'll be able to hear yöu if yöu call me.
I wanna go home.
But that's why I gotta work on the scanner.

- Yes, she does. - And yöu guys are both...
...looking to retire at the same time?
We'd like to retire and maintain our lifestyle...
...without paying a lot of taxes.
So basically, yöu want nobody's hands in yöur pockets but yöur own?
Are yöu familiar with tax-free municipal?
I learned to finish my work quickly.

The important thing about that freedom train...
... is it's got to climb mountains.
We all have to deal with mountains.
yöu know, mountains that go way up high.
And mountains that go deep and low.
- Amen, preacher! - Yes.
We know what those mountains are, here at Glide.
We sing about them.
Lord, don't move that mountain
Give me strength to climb it
Please don't move That stumbling block
But lead me, Lord, around it
My burdens, they get so heavy
Seems hard to bear
But I won't give up No, no
Because yöu promised me
yöu'd meet me at the altar of prayer
- Lord don't move that mountain - Please don't move that mountain
But give me strength to climb it

We can go back to the cave if yöu like.
No, thank yöu.
- Ever? - I hope not.
Why not?
Well, because some things are fun the first time yöu do them...
...and then not so much the next.
- Like the bus? - Yeah, like the bus.
I'm sorry. Guess I shouldn't laugh, should I?
It's promised in the Bible. Pa says we'll find it some day.
He doesn't know where it is, though.
Didn't yöu ever want to have a home of yöur own like other people?
Sure.
Sometimes when we're moving at night...
... we pass houses with lights and people.
Sometimes yöu can hear them laughing...
The next day, after work...
... we just went to the beach.
Far away from anything.
Everything.
Just Christopher and me.
- Did yöu see me? - Yeah.
Far away from buses and noise...
... and a constant disappointment in my ten-gallon head...
... and in myself.
- Chris, thank yöu very much. - Well, thank yöu, Dean.
- Take care. - yöu made all the right moves.
Thanks, Chris.
Because when I was yöung...
... and I'd get an A on a history test or whatever...
... I'd get this good feeling about all the things that I could be.
And then I never became any of them.
- Hey, Chris. - Hey.
- How yöu doing, Jay? - I'm doing fine.
Rumour has it yöu signed 31 accounts for us from Pacific Bell.
Yeah, yeah.
Met some guys at a ball game, got some cards. I've been working.
I guess.
So one more day.
Getting nervous?
- No, I'm okay. - Yeah?
Listen, whatever happens...
...yöu've done a fantastic job, Chris.
I mean that.
Take care of yöurself.
Yes, Mr. Johnson. Chris Gardner, Dean Witter.
Yes, sir. Just calling to thank yöu very much...
...for yöur support at last month's seminar.
Yes, sir. Absolutely.
Yes, sir.
No, sir, that's it.
Thank yöu very much. Bye-bye.
Chris. Come.
- Hi, Chris. - Mr. Frohm, good to see yöu.
- Nice shirt. - Thank yöu, sir.
- Chris. - Hey, Jay.
- Chris. - Chris, sit down, please.
I thought I'd wear a shirt today.
yöu know, being the last day and all.
Well, thank yöu. Thank yöu. We appreciate that.
But...
...wear one tomorrow though, okay?
Because tomorrow's going to be yöur first day...
...if yöu'd like to work here as a broker.
Would yöu like that, Chris?
Yes, sir.
Good. We couldn't be happier.
So welcome.
- Was it as easy as it looked? - No, sir. No, sir, it wasn't.
- Good luck, Chris. - Thank yöu. Thank yöu.
Thank yöu, sir.
Oh, Chris.
I almost forgot.
Thank yöu.
This part of my life...
... this little part...
... is called "Happiness."
Christopher. Christopher. Come here.
So how many...
...planets are there?
- Seven. - Seven?
Nine.
Who's the king of the jungle?
- Gorilla. - The gorilla?
The gorilla?
No. Lion.
Oh, yeah. Lion, lion, lion.
Hey, Dad, listen to this. Knock, knock.
- Who's there? - Shelby.
Shelby who?
Shelby coming around the mountain When she comes
- Knock knock. - Who's there?
- Nobody. - Nobody who?
Nobody who?
Now, that's funny. I like that one.
