"The Pursuit of Happyness" is a true story in our social life. The movie is talking about a man named Christopher Gardner. He has invested heavily in a device known as a "Bone Density Scanner". Gardner feels like he has made these devices. However, they do not sell as they are marginally better than the current technology at a much higher price. As Gardner tries to figure out how to sell them, his wife leaves him, he loses his house, his bank account, and credit cards. He is forced to live out in the streets with his son, he craves to get a steady job.
