"When Happiness Knocks on the Door" is an American movie starring Will Smith and released in 2006. The film is based on real events and is one of the few classic inspirational films. It mainly tells how a salesman who was on the verge of bankruptcy and whose wife left home pursued his dreams and protected his son when he was disappointed in life. Many of us have sympathy when watching this movie because the dilemma Chris encountered is very ordinary and real, and it can be encountered everywhere in reality, and the image Chris establishes in the face of adversity is exactly what we hope for in our hearts. Appearance, the direction of the heart, is the sound of the heart.
grew up with a single parent, he has always lacked the love of his father. He didn't see his father until he was in his twenties. It was this kind of experience that made him silently vowed to protect his son. His son became the driving force for his life, and his dream gave him a direction for life, but facing the poverty of life, his wife left him. Unable to pay the rent, he began a wandering life. In order to spend the six-month internship without pay, he worked harder than before to sell equipment and protect his son’s young heart. The most worrying thing was him. The clip of taking his son overnight in the toilet. After selling all the instruments, he should have lived his previous life, but on Christmas Day, the bank deducted six hundred dollars in taxes from him. It seemed that he paid nothing for a month. He and his son wandered to the bus station. In order for his son to sleep well, he spread tissues all over the floor in the station toilet, locked the door behind the toilet, and hugged his son to sleep. The night was very long. When the doorman found strange knocking on the door, he just covered his son’s ears. For fear of waking up his son, the constant knocking on the door seemed to break the most vulnerable place of Chris. His tears could not stop running wildly. The embarrassment of life, the life of dreams, the home of his son, these are like a big rock in his heart. Crush him down. If it wasn't for the hope of life lying beside him, perhaps he had been overwhelmed by life. Happiness seems to be visible but not touchable. Only by persevering in pursuit can we have our own happiness.
The journey to pursue dreams has never been smooth, frustration, and suffering have never been absent. Only by standing firm can you be qualified to hear the knock on the door when happiness comes. Maybe we can imagine that if Chris flinches a little when facing those setbacks, will the happiness he wants come? For example, if you give up a six-month internship without salary, or get discouraged by those futile and useless calls, then he may still be the salesperson who is running for food, clothing, housing and transportation. Another important factor for Chris' success is to take the initiative to fight for it.
When he regards the stock broker as a dream, he is always fighting for opportunities for himself. For example, in order to be able to meet with the interviewer of a securities company, pretend to drop in with the interviewer and ride a high-spending taxi; in order to make more phone calls, he does not drink water and saves the time of going to the toilet. It is precisely because of these that he can stand out among the twenty interns and become an excellent securities broker. Put another way, this is exactly a way for him to defend his dreams. The shot that touched me the most in the
film was that after he learned that he was hired, he stepped out of the securities company and merged into the crowd. His red eyes seemed to convey the joy of success, and he took pictures of himself when he was excited. Hands, at that moment are ordinary and extraordinary, because for everyone, there is just another happy person in the crowd, and for Chris, his happiness really knocked on the door. Before
, he always envied the people who came out of the securities company, all of them were proud of their lives, and they were full of spring breeze. When he blended into the crowd, it meant that he became the kind of person he once envied, and success brought about The joy of life is probably the happiness of life. I like this movie very much. I like the trivial life it presents, worrying about rent, and running around for my livelihood, because I can see what I was like from these trivial things. When
just came out for internship, the meager salary, high rent, crowded buses, eating fast food, and pretending to be comfortable with the family. Life is difficult, but we still have to move forward, but every step forward may be very exciting, because the happy other shore flower will always bloom quietly in a casual morning.
