Iam finally getting to watch The Pursuit of Happyness,,,,,I've had it here at the house for I dont know how long!!! Just like I dont have time to blog, I also dont have time to watch movies!!!!!!!
LOL
It is 12:48 a.m. I should NOT still be up!!!! I have to get up for work!!!!
There are so many things I could say about this movie,
But what stands out is the "Simple Pleasures of a Child"
I have a 6 year old, and there were so many scenes where I felt his pain as a parent.......
It is just a father and a son,,,,,They have NOTHING,
they are in a store, the son is staring at a candy bar,,,,,,that simple little thing would bring him such JOY! So his DAD buys it for him,,,,,
At one point they have to spend the night in a Public Bathroom,,,,,,the father convinces the son it is a cave in pre-historic days and they have to hide in there form the dinosaurs!!! It just about kills the father to have to spend the night in there!!! Later in the movie the son expresses to the father that he'd LIKE to spend the night in the cave again!!!
Throughout the movie the son carries around a Capt America doll,,,,,,,,in one scene, they are rushing to catch a bus and the little boy drops the doll in the street!!!There is NO going back for it!!! The little boy cries,,,,his heart has been broken into a million pieces cause he lost Capt America!
My little girl still has "whats left" of a "blankie". It is tattered and torn. People like to scold HER (and ME) for still carrying a "blankie" at "her" age!!!!!
One night at bedtime, we couldnt find the blankie,,,,,,,,,,we were going to make her go to bed with out it,,,,,,If you couldve seen the hurt in her eyes!!! She went to bed,,,,I sat here in the living room and cried my eyes out.
Anyway,,,The Pursuit of Happyness,,,,
Its a GREAT movie!!! Great for lots of different reasons,,,,,,,,
Definitely worth seeing!
