00:01:35.245 --> 00:01:37.163
Time to get up, man.
2
00:01:38.999 --> 00:01:41.293
- All right, Dad.
- Come on.
3
00:02:49.152 --> 00:02:50.987
Should be here soon.
4
00:03:38.368 --> 00:03:40.662
- I think I should make a list.
- What do you mean?
5
00:03:40.870 --> 00:03:43.248
- For your birthday gifts?
- Yeah.
6
00:03:43.456 --> 00:03:46.007
You know you're only getting
a couple of things, right?
7
00:03:46.209 --> 00:03:50.255
Yeah, I know. Just to look at
and study so I can choose better.
8
00:03:50.463 --> 00:03:53.383
Okay, well, that's smart.
Yeah, make a list.
9
00:03:53.883 --> 00:03:55.802
Can you spell everything
you're thinking of?
10
00:03:56.052 --> 00:03:59.598
- I think so.
- All right. That's good.
11
00:04:03.560 --> 00:04:06.438
- How you doing in here, man?
- Okay.
12
00:04:13.737 --> 00:04:16.656
Can we go to the park today, after?
13
00:04:17.490 --> 00:04:20.911
No, I gotta go to Oakland.
Well, maybe, we'll see.
14
00:04:21.161 --> 00:04:22.704
Give me a kiss.
15
00:04:23.580 --> 00:04:25.457
I'll talk to you later.
16
00:04:28.919 --> 00:04:30.545
Excuse me.
17
00:04:31.338 --> 00:04:33.048
Oh, excuse me...
18
00:04:33.256 --> 00:04:35.550
...when is somebody
gonna clean this off?
19
00:04:38.595 --> 00:04:41.097
And the Y?
The Y. We talked about this.
20
00:04:41.348 --> 00:04:44.726
It's an I in "happiness."
There's no Y in "happiness." It's an I.
21
00:04:47.020 --> 00:04:48.897
I'm Chris Gardner.
22
00:04:49.356 --> 00:04:52.400
I met my father for the first time
when I was 28 years old.
23
00:04:53.193 --> 00:04:54.861
And I made up my mind
as a young kid...
24
00:04:55.111 --> 00:04:56.571
... that when I had children...
25
00:04:56.780 --> 00:05:00.116
... my children were gonna know
who their father was.
26
00:05:01.993 --> 00:05:04.746
This is part of my life story.
27
00:05:05.580 --> 00:05:08.917
This part is called "Riding the Bus."
28
00:05:15.465 --> 00:05:17.092
What's that?
29
00:05:17.717 --> 00:05:19.928
It's a time machine, isn't it?
30
00:05:20.720 --> 00:05:22.305
Seems like a time machine.
31
00:05:22.555 --> 00:05:25.600
That seems like a time machine.
It's a time machine. Take me with you.
32
00:05:25.850 --> 00:05:27.018
This machine...
33
00:05:27.477 --> 00:05:28.728
... this machine on my lap...
34
00:05:28.979 --> 00:05:30.897
This guy, he has a time machine.
35
00:05:31.147 --> 00:05:34.150
He travels in the past
with this machine and...
36
00:05:34.401 --> 00:05:36.611
- it is not a time machine.
37
00:05:37.153 --> 00:05:39.781
It's a portable
bone-density scanner.
38
00:05:40.657 --> 00:05:43.243
A medical device I sell for a living.
39
00:05:43.493 --> 00:05:45.954
Thank you for the opportunity
to discuss it with you.
40
00:05:46.162 --> 00:05:48.248
- I appreciate it.
- We just don't need it, Chris.
41
00:05:48.498 --> 00:05:50.208
It's unnecessary and expensive.
42
00:05:50.417 --> 00:05:52.544
- Well, maybe next...
- Thank you.
43
00:05:53.670 --> 00:05:58.717
It gave a slightly denser picture
than an x-ray for twice the money.
44
00:06:01.761 --> 00:06:03.305
- Hey.
- Hey, baby.
45
00:06:03.513 --> 00:06:05.181
- What happened?
- No, nothing.
46
00:06:05.432 --> 00:06:06.975
Look, I can't get Christopher today.
47
00:06:07.517 --> 00:06:09.686
Oh, no, you don't, Chris.
I'm back on at 7.
48
00:06:09.936 --> 00:06:11.646
I know. I have got to go to Oakland.
49
00:06:12.105 --> 00:06:14.983
So I gotta get Christopher home,
feed him, bathe him...
50
00:06:15.191 --> 00:06:17.819
...get him in bed,
and be back here by 7?
51
00:06:18.028 --> 00:06:20.155
- Yes.
- And we got the tax-bill notice today.
52
00:06:20.363 --> 00:06:23.867
- What are you gonna do about that?
- Look, this is what we gotta do.
53
00:06:28.204 --> 00:06:32.375
You see that car? The one
with the pretty yellow shoe on it?
54
00:06:32.626 --> 00:06:33.960
That's mine.
55
00:06:34.210 --> 00:06:36.129
There's no parking near hospitals.
56
00:06:36.379 --> 00:06:38.840
That's what happens
when you're always in a rush.
57
00:06:39.049 --> 00:06:40.926
Thanks anyway. Very much.
58
00:06:41.134 --> 00:06:44.054
- Maybe next quarter.
- It's possible.
59
00:06:44.971 --> 00:06:50.477
I needed to sell at least two scanners
a month for rent and daycare.
60
00:06:51.394 --> 00:06:52.687
I'd have to sell one more...
61
00:06:52.896 --> 00:06:56.691
... to pay off all of those tickets
under my windshield wiper.
62
00:07:03.490 --> 00:07:05.492
The problem is...
63
00:07:06.409 --> 00:07:08.870
... I haven't sold any for a while.
64
00:07:10.580 --> 00:07:13.250
Since when do you not like
macaroni and cheese?
65
00:07:13.500 --> 00:07:16.002
Since birth?
66
00:07:18.505 --> 00:07:20.507
- What's that?
- What?
67
00:07:20.757 --> 00:07:23.802
- What is this?
- It's a gift for Christopher.
68
00:07:24.010 --> 00:07:26.513
- From who?
- Cynthia from work.
69
00:07:26.763 --> 00:07:29.808
It's for adults. Chris can't use it.
She didn't know.
70
00:07:30.016 --> 00:07:32.018
What are you supposed
to do with it?
71
00:07:32.769 --> 00:07:35.814
Make every side the same colour.
72
00:07:37.107 --> 00:07:39.401
Did you pay the taxes?
73
00:07:39.693 --> 00:07:42.821
No, I'm gonna
have to file an extension.
74
00:07:43.613 --> 00:07:47.742
- You already filed an extension.
- Yeah, well, I gotta file another one.
75
00:07:48.118 --> 00:07:51.830
That's... It's $650.
I'll have it in the next month.
76
00:07:52.372 --> 00:07:54.165
That means interest, right?
77
00:07:54.374 --> 00:07:56.751
- And a penalty?
- Yeah, a little bit.
78
00:07:56.960 --> 00:08:02.591
Look, why don't you let me do this?
All right, just relax. Okay?
79
00:08:02.799 --> 00:08:06.928
- Come here. Calm down.
- I have to go back to work.
80
00:08:14.978 --> 00:08:18.607
Let's get ready for bed.
Hey, put your plate in the sink.
81
00:08:19.316 --> 00:08:22.235
A few days ago I was presented
with a report I'd asked for...
82
00:08:22.485 --> 00:08:26.156
... a comprehensive audit, if you will,
of our economic condition.
83
00:08:26.823 --> 00:08:29.576
You won't like it. I didn't like it.
84
00:08:29.826 --> 00:08:31.453
But we have to face the truth...
85
00:08:31.661 --> 00:08:34.289
... and then go to work
to turn things around.
86
00:08:34.497 --> 00:08:38.251
And make no mistake about it,
we can turn them around.
87
00:08:38.501 --> 00:08:41.546
The federal budget is out of control.
88
00:08:41.755 --> 00:08:45.133
And we face runaway deficits
of almost $80 billion...
89
00:08:45.342 --> 00:08:48.762
... for this budget year
that ends September 30th.
90
00:08:49.012 --> 00:08:54.184
That deficit is larger than
the entire federal budget in 1957.
91
00:08:54.434 --> 00:08:56.978
And so is the almost $80 billion...
92
00:08:57.187 --> 00:09:01.483
... we will pay in interest
this year on the national debt.
93
00:09:02.108 --> 00:09:04.653
Twenty years ago, in 1960...
94
00:09:04.861 --> 00:09:08.990
... our federal government payroll
was less than $13 billion.
95
00:09:09.199 --> 00:09:11.910
Today it is 75 billion.
96
00:09:12.118 --> 00:09:17.666
During these 20 years, our population
has only increased by 23.3 percent...
97
00:09:35.892 --> 00:09:38.603
Man, I got two questions for you:
98
00:09:38.853 --> 00:09:41.940
What do you do?
And how do you do it?
99
00:09:43.441 --> 00:09:46.528
- I'm a stockbroker.
- Stockbroker. Oh, goodness.
100
00:09:46.736 --> 00:09:48.697
Had to go to college
to be a stockbroker, huh?
101
00:09:48.989 --> 00:09:52.701
You don't have to. Have to be good
with numbers and good with people.
102
00:09:52.909 --> 00:09:55.287
- That's it.
- Hey, you take care.
103
00:09:55.537 --> 00:09:57.539
I'll let you hang on to my car
for the weekend.
104
00:09:57.747 --> 00:10:00.208
- But I need it back for Monday.
- Feed the meter.
105
00:10:07.424 --> 00:10:09.801
I still remember that moment.
106
00:10:14.097 --> 00:10:18.727
They all looked
so damn happy to me.
107
00:10:25.942 --> 00:10:28.320
Why couldn't I look like that?
108
00:10:45.962 --> 00:10:47.255
I'm gonna try to get home by 6.
109
00:10:47.464 --> 00:10:50.592
I'm gonna stop by a brokerage firm
after work.
110
00:10:50.800 --> 00:10:54.095
- For what?
- I wanna see about a job there.
111
00:10:54.304 --> 00:10:56.932
Yeah? What job?
112
00:10:57.474 --> 00:10:59.434
You know, when I...
113
00:10:59.643 --> 00:11:02.270
When I was a kid, I could go through
a math book in a week.
114
00:11:02.479 --> 00:11:05.815
So I'm gonna go see about
what job they got down there.
115
00:11:06.983 --> 00:11:08.860
What job?
116
00:11:11.821 --> 00:11:13.573
Stockbroker.
117
00:11:15.909 --> 00:11:19.079
- Stockbroker?
- Yeah.
118
00:11:19.537 --> 00:11:21.456
Not an astronaut?
119
00:11:38.515 --> 00:11:39.975
Don't talk to me like that, Linda.
120
00:11:41.101 --> 00:11:44.896
I'm gonna go down and see about this,
and I'm gonna do it during the day.
121
00:11:45.105 --> 00:11:46.815
You should probably
do your sales calls.
122
00:11:47.274 --> 00:11:49.693
I don't need you to tell me
about my sales calls, Linda.
123
00:11:49.943 --> 00:11:53.113
I got three of them
before the damn office is even open.
124
00:11:53.697 --> 00:11:56.074
Do you remember
that rent is due next week?
125
00:11:56.283 --> 00:11:58.159
Probably not.
126
00:11:58.785 --> 00:12:00.829
We're already two months behind.
127
00:12:01.037 --> 00:12:04.082
Next week we'll owe three months.
128
00:12:04.541 --> 00:12:08.670
I've been pulling double shifts
for four months now, Chris.
129
00:12:09.129 --> 00:12:13.383
Just sell what's in your contract.
Get us out of that business.
130
00:12:13.633 --> 00:12:17.304
Linda, that is what I am trying to do.
131
00:12:18.054 --> 00:12:20.724
This is what I'm trying to do
for my family...
132
00:12:20.974 --> 00:12:22.309
...for you and for Christopher.
133
00:12:23.727 --> 00:12:25.854
What's the matter with you?
134
00:12:30.066 --> 00:12:31.693
Linda.
135
00:12:32.319 --> 00:12:33.820
Linda.
136
00:13:00.847 --> 00:13:05.894
This part of my life
is called "Being Stupid."
137
00:13:07.938 --> 00:13:09.231
Can I ask you a favour, miss?
138
00:13:09.439 --> 00:13:13.318
Do you mind if I leave this here
with you just for five minutes?
139
00:13:13.526 --> 00:13:16.029
I have a meeting in there
and I don't wanna carry that...
140
00:13:16.279 --> 00:13:18.240
...looking smalltime.
141
00:13:19.115 --> 00:13:23.536
Here is a dollar and I'll give you
more money when I come back out.
142
00:13:23.787 --> 00:13:26.998
Okay? It's not valuable.
You can't sell it anywhere.
143
00:13:27.958 --> 00:13:33.088
I can't even sell it, and it's my job.
All right? Be right back.
144
00:13:39.803 --> 00:13:42.138
- Chris? Tim Brophy, Resources.
- Yes. How are you?
145
00:13:42.389 --> 00:13:43.682
- Follow me.
- Yes, sir.
146
00:13:43.890 --> 00:13:46.643
Let me see if I can find you
an application for our internship.
147
00:13:46.893 --> 00:13:50.105
I'm afraid that's all we can do for you.
See, this is a satellite office.
148
00:13:50.313 --> 00:13:52.941
Jay Twistle in the main office,
he oversees Witter Resources.
149
00:13:53.149 --> 00:13:55.277
I mean, I'm... You know,
I'm just this office.
150
00:13:55.485 --> 00:13:58.405
As you can see, we got a hell of lot
of applications here, so...
151
00:13:58.655 --> 00:14:01.616
Normally I have a résumé sheet,
but I can't seem to find it anywhere.
152
00:14:01.825 --> 00:14:05.245
- We...
- Thank you very much.
153
00:14:05.495 --> 00:14:06.621
I need to go.
154
00:14:07.247 --> 00:14:08.915
I'll bring this back.
155
00:14:09.165 --> 00:14:12.294
- Thank you.
- Okay.
156
00:14:18.675 --> 00:14:23.138
Trusting a hippie girl with my scanner.
Why did I do that?
157
00:14:23.346 --> 00:14:24.973
Excuse me. Excuse me.
158
00:14:25.181 --> 00:14:30.645
Like I said, this part of my life
is called "Being Stupid."
159
00:14:33.857 --> 00:14:38.528
Hey! Hey! Hey! Don't move!
Don't move! Stay...!
160
00:14:46.536 --> 00:14:48.830
Stop! Stop!
161
00:14:49.039 --> 00:14:52.250
Don't move!
Stop this...! Stop the train!
162
00:14:53.293 --> 00:14:55.587
Stop! Stop!
163
00:15:10.560 --> 00:15:14.231
The programme took just 20 people
every six months.
164
00:15:14.481 --> 00:15:16.524
One got the job.
165
00:15:18.068 --> 00:15:23.448
There were three blank lines after
"high school" to list more education.
166
00:15:24.991 --> 00:15:27.786
I didn't need that many lines.
167
00:15:32.916 --> 00:15:35.877
Try and sleep. It's late.
168
00:15:45.845 --> 00:15:49.432
It's a puzzle measuring just 3 inches
by 3 inches on each side...
169
00:15:49.683 --> 00:15:52.060
... made up of multiple colours
that you twist and turn...
170
00:15:52.269 --> 00:15:54.896
... and try to get
to a solid colour on each side.
171
00:15:55.105 --> 00:15:58.733
This little cube
is the gift sensation of 1981.
172
00:15:58.942 --> 00:16:00.318
Don't expect to solve it easily.
173
00:16:00.527 --> 00:16:02.946
Although we did encounter
one math professor at USF...
174
00:16:03.196 --> 00:16:05.657
... who took just 30 minutes on his.
175
00:16:05.865 --> 00:16:08.076
This is as far as I've gotten
on mine.
176
00:16:08.285 --> 00:16:11.663
As you can see,
I still have a long way to go.
177
00:16:11.871 --> 00:16:14.499
This is Jim Finnerty reporting
for KJSF in Richmond.
178
00:16:14.708 --> 00:16:17.419
Hey, wake up.
179
00:16:17.627 --> 00:16:19.129
Eat.
180
00:16:20.297 --> 00:16:22.716
- Bye, Mom.
- Bye, baby.
181
00:16:22.966 --> 00:16:25.927
- Come back without that, please.
- Oh, yeah, I'm going to.
182
00:16:26.136 --> 00:16:29.055
So go ahead, say goodbye to it,
because I'm coming back without it.
183
00:16:29.306 --> 00:16:31.683
Goodbye and good riddance.
184
00:16:31.891 --> 00:16:33.852
You ain't had to add
the "good riddance" part.
185
00:16:34.060 --> 00:16:35.103
Bye, Mom.
186
00:16:36.646 --> 00:16:37.981
Bye.
187
00:16:38.231 --> 00:16:41.776
It's written as P-P-Y, but it's
supposed to be an I in "happiness."
188
00:16:41.985 --> 00:16:45.113
- Is it an adjective?
- No, actually it's a noun.
189
00:16:45.322 --> 00:16:47.073
But it's not spelled right.
190
00:16:47.324 --> 00:16:50.869
- Is "fuck" spelled right?
- Yeah, that's spelled right.
191
00:16:51.077 --> 00:16:54.205
But that's not part of the motto,
so you're not supposed to learn that.
192
00:16:54.414 --> 00:16:59.294
That's an adult word to show anger
and other things.
193
00:16:59.502 --> 00:17:02.380
- But just don't use that one, okay?
- Okay.
194
00:17:02.589 --> 00:17:04.758
What's that say
on the back of your bag?
195
00:17:05.091 --> 00:17:07.052
My nickname.
196
00:17:07.260 --> 00:17:08.845
We pick nicknames.
197
00:17:09.095 --> 00:17:12.432
- Oh, yeah? What's it say?
- "Hot Rod."
198
00:17:15.435 --> 00:17:17.479
- Did you have a nickname?
- Yep.
199
00:17:17.687 --> 00:17:20.398
- What?
- "Ten-Gallon Head."
200
00:17:20.607 --> 00:17:23.485
- What's that?
- I grew up in Louisiana, near Texas.
201
00:17:23.693 --> 00:17:28.323
Everybody wears cowboy hats.
And a ten-gallon's a big hat.
202
00:17:28.531 --> 00:17:32.118
I was smart back then,
so they called me Ten-Gallon Head.
203
00:17:32.702 --> 00:17:34.829
- Hoss wears that hat.
- Hoss?
204
00:17:35.121 --> 00:17:36.831
Hoss Cartwright on Bonanza.
205
00:17:37.290 --> 00:17:40.835
- How do you know Bonanza?
- We watch it at Mrs. Chu's.
206
00:17:41.544 --> 00:17:44.589
- You watch Bonanza at daycare?
- Yeah.
207
00:17:45.715 --> 00:17:47.717
When? When do you watch it?
208
00:17:47.968 --> 00:17:51.596
- After snack? After your nap?
- After Love Boat.
209
00:17:56.559 --> 00:17:58.687
I made my list for my birthday.
210
00:17:59.479 --> 00:18:03.984
- Yeah, what'd you put on there?
- A basketball or an ant farm.
211
00:18:07.571 --> 00:18:11.866
- He says he's been watching TV.
- Oh, little TV for history.
212
00:18:12.075 --> 00:18:15.161
- Love Boat?
- For history. Navy.
213
00:18:15.912 --> 00:18:17.622
That's not the Navy.
214
00:18:17.831 --> 00:18:19.958
I mean, he could
watch television at home.
215
00:18:20.166 --> 00:18:24.546
We're paying you $150 a month.
If he's gonna be sitting around...
216
00:18:24.796 --> 00:18:27.132
...watching TV all day,
we're taking him out of here.
217
00:18:27.340 --> 00:18:31.136
Go pay more at other daycare
if you don't like Navy TV.
218
00:18:33.013 --> 00:18:38.226
You late pay anyway.
You complain. I complain.
219
00:18:39.769 --> 00:18:43.523
Can you at least put the dog upstairs
in your room or something?
220
00:18:43.773 --> 00:18:45.191
Bye.
221
00:19:29.569 --> 00:19:33.448
I was waiting for
Witter Resource head Jay Twistle...
222
00:19:33.740 --> 00:19:39.204
... whose name sounded so delightful,
like he’d give me a job and a hug.
223
00:19:39.412 --> 00:19:43.416
I just had to show him I was good
with numbers and good with people.
224
00:19:43.625 --> 00:19:45.168
- Morning, Mr. Twistle.
- Good morning.
225
00:19:45.418 --> 00:19:46.795
- Mr. Twistle, Chris Gardner.
- Hi.
226
00:19:47.045 --> 00:19:49.798
I wanted to drop this off personally
and make your acquaintance.
227
00:19:50.006 --> 00:19:53.385
I thought I'd catch you on the way in.
I'd love the opportunity to discuss...
228
00:19:53.593 --> 00:19:55.804
...what may seem like weaknesses
on my application.
229
00:19:56.012 --> 00:19:58.807
We'll start with this, and we'll call you
if we wanna sit down.
230
00:19:59.015 --> 00:20:01.977
- Yes, sir. You have a great day.
- You too.
231
00:20:09.067 --> 00:20:10.652
Hey, yeah, how you doing?
232
00:20:10.860 --> 00:20:13.029
This is Chris Gardner calling
for Dr. Delsey.
233
00:20:13.280 --> 00:20:15.407
Yeah, I'm running a little late
for a sales call.
234
00:20:15.615 --> 00:20:19.119
I was wondering if...
Yeah, Osteo National.
235
00:20:19.369 --> 00:20:21.871
Right. We can still...? Half an hour?
236
00:20:22.080 --> 00:20:25.750
Yes. Beautiful. Beautiful.
Thank you, thank you.
237
00:20:35.302 --> 00:20:38.430
Hey! Hey!
238
00:20:39.556 --> 00:20:40.890
Hey!
239
00:20:41.099 --> 00:20:42.475
This part of my life...
240
00:20:42.726 --> 00:20:45.395
- Wait!
- ... this part here...
241
00:20:46.980 --> 00:20:48.565
... it's called "Running."
242
00:20:48.815 --> 00:20:50.692
Hey! Hey!
243
00:20:50.901 --> 00:20:52.485
Wait!
244
00:20:53.403 --> 00:20:56.197
Hey! Wait!
245
00:20:56.406 --> 00:20:58.783
That was my stolen machine.
246
00:20:58.992 --> 00:21:01.036
Unless she was with
a guy who sold them too.
247
00:21:02.579 --> 00:21:03.830
Which was unlikely...
248
00:21:04.039 --> 00:21:06.750
... because I was the only one
selling them in the Bay Area.
249
00:21:06.917 --> 00:21:09.544
I spent our entire life savings
on these things.
250
00:21:12.005 --> 00:21:15.550
It was such
a revolutionary machine.
251
00:21:16.760 --> 00:21:18.136
- Can you feel it, baby?
- Oh, yeah.
252
00:21:18.345 --> 00:21:19.888
You got me doing all the work.
253
00:21:20.096 --> 00:21:22.599
What I didn't know
is that doctors and hospitals...
254
00:21:22.807 --> 00:21:26.686
... would consider them
unnecessary luxuries.
255
00:21:29.356 --> 00:21:32.734
I even asked the landlord
to take a picture.
256
00:21:34.027 --> 00:21:38.907
So if I lost one, it was like losing
a month's groceries.
257
00:21:41.868 --> 00:21:44.788
Hey, hey! Wait! Wait!
258
00:21:47.707 --> 00:21:50.377
Hey, get back here!
259
00:21:54.965 --> 00:21:57.425
Hey, man, I...
260
00:21:59.302 --> 00:22:01.596
- Who's he?
- He's that guy...
261
00:22:12.148 --> 00:22:15.986
- Did you forget?
- Forget what?
262
00:22:16.987 --> 00:22:19.447
You're not supposed
to have any of those.
263
00:22:19.656 --> 00:22:22.867
- Yeah, I know.
- You have two now.
264
00:22:33.253 --> 00:22:34.796
Hey.
265
00:22:37.757 --> 00:22:39.342
Hey, Mom.
266
00:22:44.681 --> 00:22:48.560
One, two, three!
267
00:22:49.686 --> 00:22:52.772
- That's a basketball!
- Hey, hey. What do you mean?
268
00:22:53.023 --> 00:22:54.691
You don't know that
that's a basketball.
269
00:22:54.941 --> 00:22:58.820
This could be an ant farm. This could
be a microscope or anything.
270
00:22:59.029 --> 00:23:01.489
- No, it's not.
- There, there.
271
00:23:01.948 --> 00:23:04.993
All right, come on.
Open him up. Open him up.
272
00:23:10.874 --> 00:23:15.253
- That paper's a little heavy, huh?
- Yeah, but I got it.
273
00:23:26.473 --> 00:23:29.017
You should've seen me
out there today.
274
00:23:29.226 --> 00:23:31.770
Somebody stole a scanner.
I had to run the old girl down...
275
00:23:31.978 --> 00:23:33.563
Whatever.
276
00:23:35.148 --> 00:23:38.235
- What?
- Whatever, Chris.
277
00:23:38.818 --> 00:23:40.654
What the hell
you got attitude about?
278
00:23:40.904 --> 00:23:43.657
- "Whatever" what?
- Every day's got some damn story.
279
00:23:43.907 --> 00:23:45.200
Hey, Roy. Roy!
280
00:23:45.408 --> 00:23:47.702
Can you beat your little rug
when nobody's out here?
281
00:23:47.911 --> 00:23:49.371
There's dust and shit all over.
282
00:23:49.579 --> 00:23:51.957
- I'm trying to keep a clean house.
- Hey, wait a second.
283
00:23:52.165 --> 00:23:54.918
Look, Linda, relax.
284
00:23:55.168 --> 00:23:58.463
We're gonna come out of this.
Everything is gonna be fine, all right?
285
00:23:59.589 --> 00:24:03.468
You said that before,
when I got pregnant. "It'll be fine."
286
00:24:03.677 --> 00:24:08.682
- So you don't trust me now?
- Whatever. I don't care.
287
00:24:23.863 --> 00:24:26.074
- Taxi!
- Mr. Twistle.
288
00:24:26.283 --> 00:24:28.952
- Yeah, hi.
- Hi. Chris Gardner.
289
00:24:29.202 --> 00:24:30.996
Yeah, hi. Listen.
What can I do for you?
290
00:24:31.204 --> 00:24:34.249
I submitted an application for the
intern programme about a month ago...
291
00:24:34.457 --> 00:24:36.710
...and I would just love
to sit with you briefly...
292
00:24:36.960 --> 00:24:38.878
Listen, I'm going
to Noe Valley, Chris.
293
00:24:39.129 --> 00:24:42.382
- Take care of yourself.
- Mr. Twistle.
294
00:24:42.632 --> 00:24:44.926
Actually, I'm on my way
to Noe Valley also.
295
00:24:45.135 --> 00:24:46.886
How about we share a ride?
296
00:24:48.388 --> 00:24:50.557
- All right, get in.
- All right.
297
00:24:56.646 --> 00:24:59.399
So when I was in the Navy,
I worked for a doctor...
298
00:24:59.649 --> 00:25:02.444
...who loved to play golf,
hours every day...
299
00:25:02.652 --> 00:25:07.282
...and I would actually
perform medical procedures...
300
00:25:07.490 --> 00:25:09.034
...when he'd leave me in the office.
301
00:25:09.242 --> 00:25:14.497
So I'm used to being in a position
where I have to make decisions and...
302
00:25:15.999 --> 00:25:18.793
Mr. Twistle, listen.
This is a very important...
303
00:25:19.002 --> 00:25:21.212
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
This thing's impossible.
304
00:25:23.340 --> 00:25:25.425
- I can do it.
- No, you can't. No one can.
305
00:25:25.675 --> 00:25:28.345
- That's bullshit.
- No, I'm pretty sure I can do it.
306
00:25:28.762 --> 00:25:31.932
- No, you can't.
- Let me see it.
307
00:25:32.515 --> 00:25:33.725
Give it here.
308
00:25:36.686 --> 00:25:40.982
Oh, yeah. Oh, wow,
you really messed it up.
309
00:25:41.191 --> 00:25:42.734
Sorry.
310
00:25:43.276 --> 00:25:49.241
It looks like it works around a swivel,
so the centre pieces never move.
311
00:25:49.449 --> 00:25:52.535
So if it's yellow in the centre,
that's the yellow side.
312
00:25:52.786 --> 00:25:55.247
If it's red in the centre,
that's the red side.
313
00:25:55.455 --> 00:25:59.084
- Okay.
- So... You can slow down.
314
00:25:59.292 --> 00:26:02.337
Listen, we can drive around all day.
I don't believe you can do this.
315
00:26:02.545 --> 00:26:04.256
- Yeah, I can.
- No, you can't.
316
00:26:04.464 --> 00:26:05.632
- Yes, I can.
- No, you can't.
317
00:26:05.882 --> 00:26:07.759
I'm telling you, no one can.
318
00:26:09.719 --> 00:26:11.930
See? That's all I ever do.
319
00:26:24.818 --> 00:26:27.112
You almost have this side.
320
00:26:27.737 --> 00:26:29.197
Holy cow.
321
00:26:39.416 --> 00:26:43.211
- You almost had that one.
- I'm gonna get it.
322
00:26:50.760 --> 00:26:52.512
Look at that.
323
00:27:15.785 --> 00:27:16.995
You're almost there.
324
00:27:40.727 --> 00:27:44.439
- 1710.
- This is me.
325
00:27:46.566 --> 00:27:47.943
Good job.
326
00:27:49.819 --> 00:27:52.906
- Goodbye.
- Yeah. I'll see you soon.
327
00:27:55.325 --> 00:27:57.035
Where are you going, sir?
328
00:27:57.244 --> 00:28:00.247
Excuse me, sir.
Where are you going, please?
329
00:28:03.583 --> 00:28:05.293
Two... A couple of blocks.
330
00:28:05.502 --> 00:28:08.922
- Just flip around.
- Okay.
331
00:28:50.880 --> 00:28:53.592
Hey! Stop it! Hey!
332
00:28:53.967 --> 00:28:55.510
- Where are you going? Come here!
- No!
333
00:28:55.719 --> 00:28:58.555
- No, no, no!
- You asshole, give me my money!
334
00:28:58.805 --> 00:29:00.098
- Give me my money.
- Please stop.
335
00:29:00.307 --> 00:29:02.309
- Please, please, please!
- Son of a bitch.
336
00:29:02.559 --> 00:29:05.061
Please! He should've paid you!
337
00:29:05.312 --> 00:29:06.813
- Come here!
- I'm sorry.
338
00:29:07.063 --> 00:29:08.690
- I'm so sorry.
- I'll kick your ass!
339
00:29:09.232 --> 00:29:12.360
- I'm sorry!
- Idiot.
340
00:29:23.163 --> 00:29:24.497
I'll get you!
341
00:29:24.748 --> 00:29:28.209
I'm going to kill you!
I'm going to kill you!
342
00:29:43.600 --> 00:29:45.685
Hey!
343
00:29:45.936 --> 00:29:48.772
Stop it, you son of a bitch!
344
00:29:49.105 --> 00:29:51.149
Stop him!
345
00:29:54.611 --> 00:29:57.072
Stop him!
346
00:30:02.369 --> 00:30:04.037
The doors are closing.
347
00:30:04.287 --> 00:30:07.082
Please stand clear of the doors.
348
00:30:15.048 --> 00:30:18.134
No! No! No!
349
00:30:20.804 --> 00:30:22.597
No!
350
00:30:45.829 --> 00:30:48.123
- Hello?
- Hey, yeah.
351
00:30:48.331 --> 00:30:50.041
Sorry I couldn't
make it home on time.
352
00:30:50.250 --> 00:30:54.462
- Chris, I missed my shift.
- Yeah, I know. I'm sorry about that.
353
00:30:54.671 --> 00:30:57.966
Look, I'm on my way right now.
Are you all right with Christopher?
354
00:30:58.174 --> 00:31:00.552
I'm leaving. Chris, I'm leaving.
355
00:31:00.760 --> 00:31:02.762
- What?
- Did you hear what I said?
356
00:31:03.680 --> 00:31:07.559
I have my things together,
and I'm taking our son...
357
00:31:07.767 --> 00:31:09.311
...and we're gonna leave now.
358
00:31:09.686 --> 00:31:11.062
I'm gonna put the phone down.
359
00:31:11.271 --> 00:31:14.816
- Linda, wait a minute. Hold it, hold...
- I'm going to leave. We are leaving.
360
00:31:20.030 --> 00:31:23.950
It was right then that I started
thinking about Thomas Jefferson...
361
00:31:25.285 --> 00:31:27.704
... the Declaration of Independence...
362
00:31:28.038 --> 00:31:34.002
... and the part about our right to life,
liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
363
00:31:34.210 --> 00:31:36.046
And I remember thinking.
364
00:31:36.296 --> 00:31:40.634
How did he know
to put the "pursuit" part in there?
365
00:31:40.884 --> 00:31:45.513
That maybe happiness is something
that we can only pursue.
366
00:31:45.722 --> 00:31:48.767
And maybe we can actually
never have it...
367
00:31:49.142 --> 00:31:50.769
... no matter what.
368
00:31:50.977 --> 00:31:52.687
How did he know that?
369
00:31:57.901 --> 00:32:00.695
Linda. Linda.
370
00:32:33.687 --> 00:32:35.355
- Hello?
- Chris.
371
00:32:35.605 --> 00:32:38.191
- Who is this?
- Jay Twistle.
372
00:32:39.025 --> 00:32:40.860
- Hey.
- Dean Witter.
373
00:32:41.111 --> 00:32:43.780
Yeah, of course. How are you?
374
00:32:43.947 --> 00:32:46.408
I'm fine. Listen, do you still
wanna come in and talk?
375
00:32:46.616 --> 00:32:47.909
Yes, sir. Absolutely.
376
00:32:48.118 --> 00:32:50.996
I'll tell you what. Come on by
day after tomorrow, in the morning.
377
00:32:51.204 --> 00:32:54.958
We're interviewing for the internships.
You got a pen and paper?
378
00:32:55.208 --> 00:32:56.751
Yes. Yes, I do.
379
00:32:59.713 --> 00:33:02.465
- Hold on one second.
- All right.
380
00:33:06.386 --> 00:33:08.471
Hello?
381
00:33:08.722 --> 00:33:11.016
- Chris?
- Go ahead. I have one.
382
00:33:11.224 --> 00:33:13.852
Write this number down so you can
call my secretary, Janice.
383
00:33:14.060 --> 00:33:16.104
- She can give you all the specifics.
- Yep.
384
00:33:16.313 --> 00:33:18.189
- Okay, 415.
- 415.
385
00:33:18.398 --> 00:33:20.108
- 864.
- 864.
386
00:33:20.317 --> 00:33:22.319
- 0256.
- 0256.
387
00:33:22.569 --> 00:33:25.530
- Yeah, extension 4796.
- 4796.
388
00:33:25.739 --> 00:33:29.993
- Right. Call her tomorrow.
- Yes, sir. 415-864-0256.
389
00:33:30.243 --> 00:33:31.494
- Okay, buddy.
- All right, yes.
390
00:33:31.745 --> 00:33:33.872
- Thank you very much.
- We'll see you soon.
391
00:33:34.664 --> 00:33:37.792
864-0256.
392
00:33:38.001 --> 00:33:41.212
4796. Janice.
393
00:33:44.257 --> 00:33:46.092
- Chris.
- Hey.
394
00:33:46.343 --> 00:33:48.553
Did you...? Have you seen
Linda and Christopher?
395
00:33:48.762 --> 00:33:50.639
- No. You catch the game last night?
- No, no.
396
00:33:50.847 --> 00:33:52.224
You didn't see that, 118, 1...?
397
00:33:52.432 --> 00:33:54.643
Excuse me, did Linda
and Christopher come in here?
398
00:33:54.851 --> 00:33:58.480
- No, I haven't seen them.
- 119-120. Double overtime.
399
00:33:58.688 --> 00:34:00.815
Moons hits a three-pointer
at 17 seconds left.
400
00:34:01.024 --> 00:34:02.651
Wayne, Wayne, Wayne.
401
00:34:02.859 --> 00:34:04.986
Can't talk to you
about numbers right now.
402
00:34:05.195 --> 00:34:07.822
- What's your problem with numbers?
- 864-2...
403
00:34:08.031 --> 00:34:09.950
- And you owe me money.
- Yeah.
404
00:34:10.200 --> 00:34:11.910
You owe me $14.
405
00:34:12.118 --> 00:34:13.995
I'm gonna get that to you.
406
00:34:14.871 --> 00:34:17.332
I need my money.
I need my money.
407
00:34:18.458 --> 00:34:20.502
Fourteen's a number.
408
00:34:46.987 --> 00:34:50.198
Hey, don't you ever take my son
away from me again.
409
00:34:50.407 --> 00:34:51.700
- You hear me?
- Leave me alone!
410
00:34:51.908 --> 00:34:53.702
Don't take my son away
from me again.
411
00:34:53.910 --> 00:34:55.704
Do you understand
what I'm saying to you?
412
00:34:55.912 --> 00:34:59.207
Don't you walk away from me when
I'm talking to you. Do you hear me?
413
00:34:59.416 --> 00:35:00.917
- Do you wanna leave?
- Yeah.
414
00:35:01.167 --> 00:35:03.962
- You wanna leave?
- Yes, I want to leave!
415
00:35:05.255 --> 00:35:07.048
Get the hell out of here,
then, Linda.
416
00:35:07.257 --> 00:35:09.801
Get the hell out of here.
Christopher's staying with me.
417
00:35:10.010 --> 00:35:12.304
You're the one that dragged
us down. You hear me?
418
00:35:12.512 --> 00:35:15.599
- You are so weak.
- No. I am not happy anymore.
419
00:35:15.849 --> 00:35:18.393
- I'm just not happy!
- Then go get happy, Linda!
420
00:35:18.602 --> 00:35:19.978
Just go get happy.
421
00:35:20.520 --> 00:35:22.397
But Christopher's living with me.
422
00:35:22.606 --> 00:35:24.399
- Stop!
- Did you hear what I said?
423
00:35:24.691 --> 00:35:27.068
Christopher's living with me!
424
00:35:53.303 --> 00:35:56.181
Hey. Come on, let's go.
425
00:35:56.389 --> 00:35:58.725
- How you doing, Mrs. Chu?
- Hi.
426
00:36:02.395 --> 00:36:04.940
- Where's Mom?
- Look, just get your stuff.
427
00:36:05.148 --> 00:36:08.610
But she told me she was
coming to pick me up today.
428
00:36:08.818 --> 00:36:10.862
Yeah, I know.
429
00:36:11.988 --> 00:36:16.618
I talked to Mom earlier.
Everything's fine, okay?
430
00:36:22.082 --> 00:36:24.292
Where do I sleep tonight?
431
00:36:24.501 --> 00:36:26.628
Let me ask you something.
Are you happy?
432
00:36:26.836 --> 00:36:29.464
- Yeah.
- All right. Because I'm happy.
433
00:36:29.673 --> 00:36:33.134
And if you're happy and I'm happy,
then that's a good thing, right?
434
00:36:33.343 --> 00:36:34.886
- Yeah.
- All right.
435
00:36:35.136 --> 00:36:37.138
You're sleeping with me.
436
00:36:37.347 --> 00:36:41.977
You're staying at home,
where you belong, all right?
437
00:36:56.491 --> 00:36:58.118
Christopher.
438
00:37:15.719 --> 00:37:18.513
Hey, listen. I need the rent.
439
00:37:18.722 --> 00:37:20.140
I can't wait anymore.
440
00:37:20.390 --> 00:37:22.726
Yeah, I'm good for that, Charlie.
I'm gonna get it.
441
00:37:22.976 --> 00:37:25.979
Why don't you go two blocks over
at the Mission Inn motel?
442
00:37:26.229 --> 00:37:27.731
It's half what you pay here.
443
00:37:27.981 --> 00:37:31.359
Listen, Chris. I need you out
of here in the morning.
444
00:37:32.736 --> 00:37:34.863
The hell am I supposed
to be out of here tomorrow?
445
00:37:35.071 --> 00:37:36.281
I got painters coming in.
446
00:37:36.489 --> 00:37:38.783
- All right, look. I need more time.
- No.
447
00:37:38.992 --> 00:37:41.119
All right, I'll paint it myself.
448
00:37:41.328 --> 00:37:46.708
All right, but I just... I gotta have some
more time... I got my son up in here.
449
00:37:51.588 --> 00:37:56.384
All right. One week.
And you paint it.
450
00:38:48.311 --> 00:38:49.896
Chris Gardner?
451
00:38:50.480 --> 00:38:53.191
Yeah. What happened?
452
00:38:53.400 --> 00:38:57.279
- Payable to the City of San Francisco.
- Does it have to be the full amount?
453
00:38:57.487 --> 00:39:00.949
You gotta pay each parking ticket,
otherwise, you're staying.
454
00:39:01.157 --> 00:39:02.617
This is all I got.
455
00:39:08.164 --> 00:39:10.834
We verify at 9:30
tomorrow morning.
456
00:39:11.334 --> 00:39:14.379
- What?
- You gotta stay until this thing clears.
457
00:39:16.590 --> 00:39:18.133
No.
458
00:39:18.341 --> 00:39:20.135
No, I can't spend the night here.
459
00:39:20.385 --> 00:39:22.929
- I have to pick up my son.
- We verify at 9:30 tomorrow.
460
00:39:23.179 --> 00:39:27.767
Sir, I have a job interview at Dean
Witter at 10: 15 tomorrow morning.
461
00:39:27.976 --> 00:39:29.644
- I cannot stay...
- 9:30 tomorrow morning.
462
00:39:29.853 --> 00:39:32.188
What am I supposed to do
with my son?
463
00:39:32.397 --> 00:39:34.858
- Is there anyone else who can...?
- I take care of him.
464
00:39:35.108 --> 00:39:38.111
Maybe we can go and have
Social Services pick him up.
465
00:39:42.198 --> 00:39:45.827
All right.
Can I have my phone call, please?
466
00:39:49.080 --> 00:39:51.291
- Hello.
- Hey.
467
00:39:51.541 --> 00:39:53.209
What do you want?
468
00:39:54.377 --> 00:39:59.007
You gotta get Christopher
from daycare. I can't.
469
00:40:00.216 --> 00:40:03.845
Just keep him for the night and I'm...
And... Just one night.
470
00:40:04.054 --> 00:40:06.097
What happened?
471
00:40:06.306 --> 00:40:09.768
I'll pick him up
from daycare tomorrow.
472
00:40:09.976 --> 00:40:11.728
I'm gonna go right...
You can just...
473
00:40:11.978 --> 00:40:14.231
You can drop him off
and I'll pick him up.
474
00:40:14.606 --> 00:40:18.026
- No.
- Come on, Linda.
475
00:40:18.276 --> 00:40:22.489
- Why you doing that?
- No, I wanna take him to the park.
476
00:40:22.948 --> 00:40:27.035
To Golden Gate
after daycare tomorrow.
477
00:40:28.328 --> 00:40:30.413
- How is he?
- He's fine.
478
00:40:30.664 --> 00:40:33.708
All right, just... All right,
take him to the park...
479
00:40:33.917 --> 00:40:37.712
...and bring him back, all right?
480
00:40:37.921 --> 00:40:40.882
All right, just bring me my son back.
481
00:40:41.841 --> 00:40:43.718
Okay?
482
00:40:43.927 --> 00:40:45.470
Linda?
483
00:40:45.679 --> 00:40:47.556
I'll bring him back around 6.
484
00:40:49.432 --> 00:40:51.601
All right, all right.
485
00:40:51.851 --> 00:40:53.687
Thank you.
486
00:40:56.106 --> 00:40:57.607
Bye.
487
00:41:22.465 --> 00:41:24.134
I'm okay?
488
00:41:59.085 --> 00:42:01.212
Excuse me. Excuse me.
489
00:42:01.755 --> 00:42:03.214
Yes, I did.
490
00:42:11.848 --> 00:42:13.642
Mr. Gardner.
491
00:42:20.774 --> 00:42:22.651
This way.
492
00:42:24.861 --> 00:42:26.905
It'll be right over there.
493
00:42:39.042 --> 00:42:40.377
What is the one like that one?
494
00:43:02.065 --> 00:43:03.942
Chris Gardner.
495
00:43:06.570 --> 00:43:08.196
Chris Gardner.
496
00:43:08.655 --> 00:43:10.615
How are you? Good morning.
497
00:43:11.241 --> 00:43:15.078
Chris Gardner. Chris Gardner.
Good to see you again.
498
00:43:15.287 --> 00:43:17.247
Chris Gardner. Pleasure.
499
00:43:18.915 --> 00:43:21.001
I've been sitting there
for the last half-hour...
500
00:43:21.251 --> 00:43:22.752
...trying to come up with a story...
501
00:43:23.003 --> 00:43:27.215
...that would explain my being here
dressed like this.
502
00:43:27.424 --> 00:43:31.469
And I wanted to come up with a story
that would demonstrate qualities...
503
00:43:31.678 --> 00:43:36.516
...that I'm sure you all admire here,
like earnestness or diligence.
504
00:43:36.766 --> 00:43:41.396
Team-playing, something.
And I couldn't think of anything.
505
00:43:42.647 --> 00:43:44.357
So the truth is...
506
00:43:44.608 --> 00:43:47.193
...I was arrested
for failure to pay parking tickets.
507
00:43:47.444 --> 00:43:49.237
Parking tickets?
508
00:43:49.779 --> 00:43:53.325
And I ran all the way here from
the Polk Station, the police station.
509
00:43:53.575 --> 00:43:55.535
What were you doing
before you were arrested?
510
00:43:55.785 --> 00:43:58.747
I was painting my apartment.
511
00:43:58.955 --> 00:44:01.124
Is it dry now?
512
00:44:01.917 --> 00:44:03.084
I hope so.
513
00:44:03.293 --> 00:44:05.003
Jay says you're pretty determined.
514
00:44:05.211 --> 00:44:07.589
He's been waiting outside
the front of the building...
515
00:44:07.797 --> 00:44:09.925
...with some 40-pound gizmo
for over a month.
516
00:44:10.133 --> 00:44:13.511
- He said you're smart.
- Well, I like to think so.
517
00:44:13.720 --> 00:44:16.723
- And you want to learn this business?
- Yes, sir, I wanna learn.
518
00:44:16.973 --> 00:44:18.934
Have you already started learning
on your own?
519
00:44:19.142 --> 00:44:20.810
Absolutely.
520
00:44:21.561 --> 00:44:23.355
- Jay?
- Yes, sir.
521
00:44:23.563 --> 00:44:25.649
How many times
have you seen Chris?
522
00:44:25.899 --> 00:44:28.526
I don't know.
One too many, apparently.
523
00:44:29.152 --> 00:44:31.488
- Was he ever dressed like this?
- No.
524
00:44:31.738 --> 00:44:33.907
No. Jacket and tie.
525
00:44:35.825 --> 00:44:38.703
First in your class in school?
526
00:44:38.954 --> 00:44:40.747
- High school?
- Yes, sir.
527
00:44:41.164 --> 00:44:44.167
- How many in the class?
- Twelve.
528
00:44:44.417 --> 00:44:46.127
It was a small town.
529
00:44:46.586 --> 00:44:49.923
- I'll say.
- But I was also first in my radar class...
530
00:44:50.173 --> 00:44:53.385
...in the Navy,
and that was a class of 20.
531
00:44:55.887 --> 00:44:57.681
Can I say something?
532
00:44:58.848 --> 00:45:00.559
I'm the type of person...
533
00:45:00.767 --> 00:45:04.020
...if you ask me a question,
and I don't know the answer...
534
00:45:04.229 --> 00:45:06.481
...I'm gonna tell you
that I don't know.
535
00:45:06.690 --> 00:45:08.024
But I bet you what.
536
00:45:08.275 --> 00:45:13.238
I know how to find the answer,
and I will find the answer.
537
00:45:14.447 --> 00:45:16.157
Is that fair enough?
538
00:45:17.450 --> 00:45:18.618
Chris.
539
00:45:19.953 --> 00:45:23.665
What would you say
if a guy walked in for an interview...
540
00:45:23.873 --> 00:45:25.875
...without a shirt on...
541
00:45:26.126 --> 00:45:29.004
...and I hired him?
What would you say?
542
00:45:33.300 --> 00:45:36.344
He must've had on
some really nice pants.
543
00:45:51.067 --> 00:45:54.613
Chris, I don't know how you did it
dressed as a garbage man...
544
00:45:54.821 --> 00:45:57.073
...but you pulled it off.
- Thank you, Mr. Twistle.
545
00:45:57.324 --> 00:45:59.701
Hey, now you can call me Jay.
We'll talk to you soon.
546
00:46:00.327 --> 00:46:02.829
All right, so I'll let you know, Jay.
547
00:46:03.663 --> 00:46:05.916
"You'll let me know, Jay"?
What do you mean?
548
00:46:06.166 --> 00:46:08.084
Yeah, I'll give you a call
tomorrow sometime...
549
00:46:08.335 --> 00:46:10.420
What are you talking...?
You hounded me for this.
550
00:46:10.670 --> 00:46:13.381
- You stood here...
- Listen, there's no salary.
551
00:46:13.590 --> 00:46:14.966
- No.
- I was not aware of that.
552
00:46:15.175 --> 00:46:16.760
My circumstances
have changed some...
553
00:46:17.344 --> 00:46:21.014
...and I need to be certain that I'll be...
- All right. Okay.
554
00:46:24.184 --> 00:46:25.727
Tonight.
555
00:46:25.936 --> 00:46:29.439
I swear I will fill your spot. I promise.
556
00:46:29.689 --> 00:46:32.651
If you back out, you know what
I'll look like to the partners?
557
00:46:32.859 --> 00:46:35.820
Yes, an ass... A-hole.
558
00:46:36.112 --> 00:46:39.532
Yeah, an ass A-hole, all the way.
559
00:46:42.452 --> 00:46:44.996
You are a piece of work.
560
00:46:46.039 --> 00:46:47.582
Tonight.
561
00:46:55.882 --> 00:46:57.842
There was no salary.
562
00:46:58.051 --> 00:47:01.221
Not even a reasonable promise
of a job.
563
00:47:07.894 --> 00:47:12.524
One intern was hired at the end
of the programme from a pool of 20.
564
00:47:12.899 --> 00:47:14.150
And if you weren't that guy...
565
00:47:14.401 --> 00:47:16.736
... you couldn't even apply
the six months' training...
566
00:47:16.987 --> 00:47:18.780
... to another brokerage.
567
00:47:21.324 --> 00:47:23.451
The only resource I would have
for six months...
568
00:47:23.660 --> 00:47:27.581
... would be my six scanners,
which I could still try to sell.
569
00:47:28.832 --> 00:47:32.252
If I sold them all,
maybe we might get by.
570
00:48:19.132 --> 00:48:22.344
- I got him. I got him.
- He's asleep.
571
00:48:22.552 --> 00:48:24.095
All right.
572
00:48:30.477 --> 00:48:32.354
Okay, baby.
573
00:48:44.908 --> 00:48:46.701
I got it.
574
00:48:51.665 --> 00:48:53.708
I'm going to New York.
575
00:49:23.196 --> 00:49:25.490
My sister's boyfriend...
576
00:49:26.116 --> 00:49:29.578
...opened a restaurant,
and they may have a job for me there.
577
00:49:30.370 --> 00:49:32.831
So I'm going to New York, Chris.
578
00:49:35.792 --> 00:49:37.711
Christopher's staying with me.
579
00:49:44.634 --> 00:49:47.470
I'm his mom, you know?
580
00:49:47.721 --> 00:49:49.764
He should be with his mom.
581
00:49:49.973 --> 00:49:51.850
I should have him, right?
582
00:49:52.726 --> 00:49:55.103
You know
you can't take care of him.
583
00:50:02.986 --> 00:50:04.529
What are you gonna do for money?
584
00:50:06.823 --> 00:50:12.287
I had an interview
at Dean Witter for an internship...
585
00:50:12.495 --> 00:50:13.955
...and I got it.
586
00:50:14.164 --> 00:50:16.708
So I'm gonna stand out
in my programme.
587
00:50:18.418 --> 00:50:20.503
Salesman to intern's backwards.
588
00:50:20.754 --> 00:50:22.631
No, it's not.
589
00:50:24.841 --> 00:50:26.468
I gotta go.
590
00:51:00.043 --> 00:51:02.420
Tell him I love him, okay?
591
00:51:03.046 --> 00:51:04.673
And...
592
00:51:10.637 --> 00:51:12.931
I know you'll take care of him, Chris.
593
00:51:13.139 --> 00:51:14.849
I know that.
594
00:51:56.433 --> 00:51:59.185
- Dean Witter.
- Yes, hi.
595
00:51:59.519 --> 00:52:03.231
Yes, I'd like to leave a message
for Mr. Jay Twistle.
596
00:52:03.440 --> 00:52:06.985
- Your name?
- Yeah, my name is Chris Gardner.
597
00:52:07.193 --> 00:52:08.320
The message is:
598
00:52:08.528 --> 00:52:14.200
Thank you very much
for inviting me into the programme.
599
00:52:14.451 --> 00:52:20.248
I really appreciate it and I'd be
very pleased to accept your invitation.
600
00:52:20.457 --> 00:52:22.334
Is that all?
601
00:52:22.626 --> 00:52:24.169
Yes, that's it.
602
00:52:24.377 --> 00:52:26.129
- Okay.
- Thank you.
603
00:52:26.379 --> 00:52:27.923
Bye.
604
00:52:54.491 --> 00:52:55.784
- Be careful with that.
- What?
605
00:52:55.992 --> 00:52:58.787
Be care... Go ahead.
606
00:53:22.686 --> 00:53:25.564
- Are we there?
- Yep.
607
00:53:38.868 --> 00:53:41.413
- Hey, you know what today is?
- Yeah.
608
00:53:41.621 --> 00:53:43.290
- What?
- Saturday.
609
00:53:43.540 --> 00:53:45.792
- You know what Saturday is, right?
- Yeah.
610
00:53:46.042 --> 00:53:48.420
- What?
- Basketball.
611
00:53:48.628 --> 00:53:51.506
- You wanna go play some basketball?
- Okay.
612
00:53:51.715 --> 00:53:54.301
All right, then we're gonna go
sell a bone-density scanner.
613
00:53:54.551 --> 00:53:58.763
- How about that? Wanna do that?
- No.
614
00:53:59.973 --> 00:54:02.350
Hey, Dad. I'm going pro.
615
00:54:04.060 --> 00:54:06.021
I'm going pro.
616
00:54:07.314 --> 00:54:08.690
Okay.
617
00:54:08.899 --> 00:54:11.693
Yeah, I don't know, you know.
618
00:54:12.402 --> 00:54:14.654
You'll probably be about as good
as I was.
619
00:54:14.905 --> 00:54:17.949
That's kind of the way it works,
you know. I was below average.
620
00:54:18.325 --> 00:54:21.953
You know, so you'll probably
ultimately rank...
621
00:54:22.162 --> 00:54:24.789
...somewhere around there,
you know, so...
622
00:54:24.998 --> 00:54:27.876
...I really... You'll excel at
a lot of things, just not this.
623
00:54:28.084 --> 00:54:30.503
I don't want you shooting
this ball all day and night.
624
00:54:30.754 --> 00:54:32.214
- All right?
- All right.
625
00:54:32.422 --> 00:54:34.257
Okay.
626
00:54:35.425 --> 00:54:37.052
All right, go ahead.
627
00:55:00.867 --> 00:55:02.494
Hey.
628
00:55:05.705 --> 00:55:07.999
Don't ever let somebody tell you...
629
00:55:08.208 --> 00:55:10.752
...you can't do something.
630
00:55:11.461 --> 00:55:13.588
Not even me.
631
00:55:14.965 --> 00:55:18.093
- All right?
- All right.
632
00:55:18.802 --> 00:55:20.971
You got a dream...
633
00:55:21.221 --> 00:55:23.431
...you gotta protect it.
634
00:55:24.558 --> 00:55:26.184
People can't do something
themselves...
635
00:55:26.393 --> 00:55:28.812
...they wanna tell you
you can't do it.
636
00:55:33.149 --> 00:55:36.945
If you want something,
go get it. Period.
637
00:55:44.995 --> 00:55:46.580
Let's go.
638
00:55:49.666 --> 00:55:52.210
Dad, why did we move to a motel?
639
00:55:52.419 --> 00:55:54.880
I told you. Because I'm getting
a better job.
640
00:55:56.172 --> 00:55:59.175
- You gotta trust me, all right?
- I trust you.
641
00:55:59.426 --> 00:56:02.137
All right, here.
Come on, come on. Keep up.
642
00:56:03.346 --> 00:56:06.308
Dad, when's Mom coming back?
643
00:56:06.850 --> 00:56:09.060
Dad, when's Mom coming back?
644
00:56:09.269 --> 00:56:11.479
I don't know, Christopher.
645
00:56:11.855 --> 00:56:13.773
Dad, listen to this.
646
00:56:14.024 --> 00:56:17.444
One day, a man was drownding
in the water.
647
00:56:17.694 --> 00:56:20.113
And a boat came by and said,
"Do you need any help?"
648
00:56:20.363 --> 00:56:22.657
He said, " No, thank you.
God will save me."
649
00:56:22.866 --> 00:56:26.036
Then another boat came by.
Said, "Do you need any help?"
650
00:56:26.286 --> 00:56:28.622
And he said, " No, thank you.
God will save me."
651
00:56:28.872 --> 00:56:30.957
Then he drowned,
and he went to heaven.
652
00:56:31.207 --> 00:56:34.377
And he said, " God,
why didn't you save me?"
653
00:56:34.628 --> 00:56:38.089
And God said, " I sent you
two big boats, you dummy."
654
00:56:39.382 --> 00:56:40.842
Do you like it?
655
00:56:41.051 --> 00:56:43.762
Yeah, that's very funny, man.
Give me your hand.
656
00:56:49.809 --> 00:56:51.436
- Thank you very much, sir.
- Yes, sir.
657
00:56:51.645 --> 00:56:53.271
- You got the bill of sale here.
- Yes.
658
00:56:53.480 --> 00:56:54.856
All the information you'll need.
659
00:56:55.065 --> 00:56:56.691
Thank you very much
for your business.
660
00:56:56.900 --> 00:56:58.401
Thank you.
661
00:57:01.154 --> 00:57:03.865
One hundred, 200,
20, 40, 45, 46...
662
00:57:04.074 --> 00:57:05.700
...7, 8, 9, 10.
663
00:57:06.326 --> 00:57:07.369
Thank you.
664
00:57:09.746 --> 00:57:12.666
- Hey, you want one of those?
- No, it's okay.
665
00:57:12.916 --> 00:57:15.168
Come on, you can have one.
Which one?
666
00:57:16.086 --> 00:57:19.589
- You like that one? How much?
- Twenty-five cents.
667
00:57:33.853 --> 00:57:37.524
This part of my life
is called "Internship."
668
00:57:37.774 --> 00:57:41.069
The 1200 building is
Medley Industrial and Sanko Oil.
669
00:57:41.278 --> 00:57:43.572
The building across the street
is Lee-Ray Shipping.
670
00:57:43.780 --> 00:57:45.657
In a couple weeks,
you'll get call sheets...
671
00:57:45.865 --> 00:57:47.701
...with the phone numbers
of employees...
672
00:57:47.951 --> 00:57:51.037
...from every Fortune 500 company
in the financial district.
673
00:57:51.371 --> 00:57:54.040
You will be pooling
from 60 Fortune companies.
674
00:57:54.291 --> 00:57:57.002
You will mainly be cold-calling
potential clients.
675
00:57:57.210 --> 00:58:00.213
But if you have to have lunch
with them, have breakfast with them...
676
00:58:00.463 --> 00:58:03.675
...even baby-sit for them, do whatever
it takes to familiarize them...
677
00:58:03.884 --> 00:58:06.803
...with our packages. We need you
to match their needs and goals...
678
00:58:07.053 --> 00:58:11.933
...to one of our many financial plans.
In essence, you reel them in...
679
00:58:12.142 --> 00:58:14.269
...we'll cook the fish.
680
00:58:15.061 --> 00:58:17.105
Some of you are here
because you know somebody.
681
00:58:17.314 --> 00:58:19.691
Some of you are here because
you think you're somebody.
682
00:58:19.983 --> 00:58:22.444
There's one guy in here
who's gonna be somebody.
683
00:58:22.652 --> 00:58:24.863
That person's gonna be the guy...
684
00:58:25.071 --> 00:58:27.324
...who can turn this into this.
685
00:58:27.574 --> 00:58:30.619
Eight hundred thousand
in commission dollars.
686
00:58:31.161 --> 00:58:32.954
You, you, help me hand these out.
687
00:58:33.830 --> 00:58:36.875
This is going to be your bible.
688
00:58:37.083 --> 00:58:38.418
You'll eat with it.
689
00:58:38.668 --> 00:58:40.295
- You'll drink with it.
- It was simple.
690
00:58:40.503 --> 00:58:43.465
X number of calls
equals X number of prospects.
691
00:58:43.673 --> 00:58:46.635
X number of prospects
equals X number of customers.
692
00:58:46.927 --> 00:58:50.013
X number of customers
equals X number of dollars...
693
00:58:50.263 --> 00:58:52.390
- ... in the company's pocket.
- Your board exam.
694
00:58:52.599 --> 00:58:58.480
Last year, we had an intern score
a 96.4 percent on the written exam.
695
00:58:58.688 --> 00:59:02.025
He wasn't chosen.
It's not a simple pass-fail.
696
00:59:02.275 --> 00:59:05.654
It's an evaluation tool we use
to separate applicants.
697
00:59:05.862 --> 00:59:08.198
Be safe, score a hundred.
698
00:59:09.199 --> 00:59:12.327
Okay, let's take a break.
Be back in 10.
699
00:59:21.628 --> 00:59:24.548
- Hey, Mr. Frohm. Chris.
- Hi.
700
00:59:24.798 --> 00:59:26.967
- Chris, how are you?
- I'm good. How you doing?
701
00:59:27.217 --> 00:59:31.263
- Fine, thank you for asking.
- First day in there. It was exciting.
702
00:59:31.471 --> 00:59:33.557
You're not quitting on us yet,
are you?
703
00:59:33.807 --> 00:59:35.600
No, sir. Ten-minute break.
704
00:59:35.809 --> 00:59:38.603
Pop out, get a quick bite and then
back in there for board prep.
705
00:59:38.812 --> 00:59:40.522
Oh, man, I remember mine.
706
00:59:40.730 --> 00:59:43.233
And ours were only an hour,
not three like yours.
707
00:59:43.483 --> 00:59:45.860
We didn't do world markets,
didn't bother with taxes...
708
00:59:46.069 --> 00:59:49.447
...and it was still a pain in the ass.
Funny what you remember.
709
00:59:49.656 --> 00:59:51.825
There was a beautiful girl
in that class.
710
00:59:52.075 --> 00:59:54.369
I can't remember her name,
but her face was so...
711
00:59:54.578 --> 00:59:56.913
I've seen an old friend of mine.
Do you mind?
712
00:59:57.163 --> 00:59:59.916
- No, go ahead.
- Good talking to you, sir.
713
01:00:29.446 --> 01:00:33.366
Hey, asshole.
Are you all right, asshole?
714
01:00:33.700 --> 01:00:36.536
Are you okay?
What were you thinking?
715
01:00:36.786 --> 01:00:38.914
What are you doing?
I could've killed you.
716
01:00:39.122 --> 01:00:41.416
I'm trying to cross the street.
717
01:00:41.625 --> 01:00:45.086
- Well, you're all right?
- Yeah, yeah.
718
01:00:45.462 --> 01:00:46.963
- Where's my shoe?
- What?
719
01:00:47.214 --> 01:00:50.967
- You knocked off my shoe!
- I don't know where your shoe is.
720
01:00:52.469 --> 01:00:55.305
- Where's my damn shoe?
- I don't know.
721
01:01:01.144 --> 01:01:02.604
Hey.
722
01:01:03.480 --> 01:01:06.775
- Did you see it? I lost my shoe.
- No, I'm sorry.
723
01:01:06.983 --> 01:01:10.320
Hey. Hey, where are you going?
724
01:01:10.570 --> 01:01:13.448
- We should wait for the police.
- I gotta go to work.
725
01:01:14.157 --> 01:01:17.869
Hey, you just got hit by a car.
Go to the hospital.
726
01:01:18.245 --> 01:01:21.748
I'm in a competitive internship
at Dean Witter.
727
01:01:32.342 --> 01:01:33.969
Hey, man, you're missing a shoe.
728
01:01:34.177 --> 01:01:38.265
Oh, yeah, thanks. Thank you.
729
01:01:44.104 --> 01:01:45.480
Dad.
730
01:01:46.022 --> 01:01:49.025
- You don't have a shoe.
- Yeah, I know.
731
01:01:49.276 --> 01:01:52.320
- Wanna know what happened?
- Yeah.
732
01:01:53.029 --> 01:01:54.531
I got hit by a car.
733
01:01:54.781 --> 01:01:57.450
- You got hit by a car?
- Yep.
734
01:01:57.617 --> 01:02:01.246
- Where?
- Just right by the office.
735
01:02:01.454 --> 01:02:04.499
- No, where in your body?
- Like, the back of my legs.
736
01:02:04.708 --> 01:02:06.543
- Hey, goodbye, Mrs. Chu.
- Goodbye.
737
01:02:06.793 --> 01:02:09.921
- Were you on the street?
- Yeah, I was running in the street.
738
01:02:10.130 --> 01:02:13.008
Don't do that. You can get hurt.
739
01:02:13.383 --> 01:02:15.218
Yeah, thanks.
740
01:02:15.468 --> 01:02:17.178
I'll remember that next time.
741
01:02:19.472 --> 01:02:20.849
And here I was again.
742
01:02:21.057 --> 01:02:23.685
- Show up early.
- While qualified persons...
743
01:02:23.977 --> 01:02:27.814
...qualified persons are interested in
investing and have money to invest.
744
01:02:28.064 --> 01:02:29.900
- Now, Chris.
- Yes, sir.
745
01:02:30.150 --> 01:02:32.152
Would you get me
some coffee, please?
746
01:02:32.402 --> 01:02:36.239
Favours for Frakesh,
our office manager. All day.
747
01:02:36.489 --> 01:02:39.034
My name is Chris Gardner
calling for Mr. Michael Anderson.
748
01:02:39.242 --> 01:02:41.661
Yes, sir, we're having a lunch
actually this Thursday.
749
01:02:41.912 --> 01:02:44.748
Okay, next time.
All right, I'm gonna hold you to that.
750
01:02:44.998 --> 01:02:46.291
Okay, yes, thank you.
751
01:02:46.499 --> 01:02:47.876
Who wants to get me a doughnut?
752
01:02:48.084 --> 01:02:51.796
- Chris?
- Yes, sir.
753
01:02:53.173 --> 01:02:56.343
Feeling underrated
and unappreciated.
754
01:02:56.676 --> 01:02:58.178
Hello, Mr. Ronald Fryer.
755
01:02:58.428 --> 01:03:00.680
Good morning to you, sir.
My name is Chris Gardner.
756
01:03:00.931 --> 01:03:02.224
I'm calling from Dean Witter.
757
01:03:02.432 --> 01:03:05.644
Yes, I have some very, very valuable
information on what's called a tax...
758
01:03:05.852 --> 01:03:08.104
Okay, thank you, sir.
759
01:03:09.272 --> 01:03:13.902
Then catch the bus by 4 to the place
where they can't spell "happiness."
760
01:03:14.110 --> 01:03:15.904
Then the cross-town.
761
01:03:16.529 --> 01:03:18.240
The 22 home.
762
01:03:19.532 --> 01:03:22.160
- Hey, Chris!
- Hey. Hi, Ralph.
763
01:03:22.369 --> 01:03:25.247
- I'm waiting.
- All right, I got that for you, Ralph.
764
01:03:25.455 --> 01:03:27.540
I'm gonna get that for you.
765
01:03:35.715 --> 01:03:39.135
Whoever brought in the most money
after six months was usually hired.
766
01:03:39.386 --> 01:03:41.429
Hello, Chris Gardner calling
for Mr. Walter Hobb.
767
01:03:41.638 --> 01:03:44.724
We were all working our way
up call sheets to sign clients.
768
01:03:44.975 --> 01:03:47.227
- From the bottom to the top.
- Yes, sir.
769
01:03:47.477 --> 01:03:50.146
- From the doorman to the CEO.
- Okay.
770
01:03:50.897 --> 01:03:53.525
They'd stay till 7,
but I had Christopher.
771
01:03:53.733 --> 01:03:56.778
I had to do in six hours
what they do in nine.
772
01:03:56.987 --> 01:04:00.115
Good afternoon, my name is Chris
Gardner. I'm calling from Dean Witter.
773
01:04:00.323 --> 01:04:01.908
In order not to waste any time...
774
01:04:02.158 --> 01:04:04.286
... I wasn't hanging up the phone
in between calls.
775
01:04:04.494 --> 01:04:06.580
Okay, thank you very much.
776
01:04:08.164 --> 01:04:10.333
I realized that
by not hanging up the phone...
777
01:04:10.584 --> 01:04:12.502
... I gained another eight minutes
a day.
778
01:04:12.752 --> 01:04:14.963
Why, good morning to you,
my name is Chris Gardner.
779
01:04:15.171 --> 01:04:17.674
- I'm calling from Dean Witter.
- I wasn't drinking water...
780
01:04:17.924 --> 01:04:19.926
... so I didn't waste any time
in the bathroom.
781
01:04:20.176 --> 01:04:22.304
Yes, I'd love to have
the opportunity...
782
01:04:22.512 --> 01:04:25.599
Okay, no problem at all, sir.
Thank you very much.
783
01:04:25.849 --> 01:04:27.142
But even doing all this...
784
01:04:27.350 --> 01:04:31.438
... after two months, I still didn't have
time to work my way up a sheet.
785
01:04:44.701 --> 01:04:47.162
We're feeling really confident
about that one as well.
786
01:04:47.370 --> 01:04:48.580
Walter Ribbon's office.
787
01:04:48.872 --> 01:04:52.000
Yes, hello, my name is Chris Gardner.
I'm calling for Mr. Walter Ribbon.
788
01:04:52.209 --> 01:04:53.335
- Concerning?
- Yes, ma'am.
789
01:04:53.543 --> 01:04:54.878
I'm calling from Dean Witter.
790
01:04:55.128 --> 01:04:56.796
Just a moment.
791
01:04:58.715 --> 01:05:00.425
- Hello?
- Mr. Ribbon.
792
01:05:00.634 --> 01:05:03.595
Hello, sir. My name's Chris Gardner.
I'm calling from Dean Witter.
793
01:05:03.803 --> 01:05:05.513
- Yeah, Chris.
- Yes, Mr. Ribbon...
794
01:05:05.722 --> 01:05:09.142
...I would love to have the opportunity
to discuss some of our products.
795
01:05:09.392 --> 01:05:11.770
I'm certain that I could
be of some assistance to you.
796
01:05:11.978 --> 01:05:13.813
Can you be here in 20 minutes?
797
01:05:15.148 --> 01:05:18.026
- Twenty minutes. Absolutely.
- Just had someone cancel.
798
01:05:18.235 --> 01:05:20.362
I can give you a few minutes
before the 49ers.
799
01:05:20.570 --> 01:05:23.698
- Monday Night Football, buddy.
- Yes, sir. Thank you very much.
800
01:05:23.907 --> 01:05:26.201
- See you soon.
- Bye-bye.
801
01:05:28.828 --> 01:05:30.914
Excuse me. Thank you.
802
01:05:31.164 --> 01:05:32.707
- Chris, what's up?
- Hey, Mr. Frakesh.
803
01:05:32.916 --> 01:05:34.209
Hey, do you have five minutes?
804
01:05:34.417 --> 01:05:36.086
I got a green light
from Walter Ribbon...
805
01:05:36.336 --> 01:05:39.381
I'm supposed to present commodities
to Bromer. Could you move my car?
806
01:05:39.589 --> 01:05:42.842
That'd really help me out. It's on
Samson, half block, silver Caprice.
807
01:05:43.093 --> 01:05:46.221
Just move it to the other side. They're
street sweeping. There's spaces.
808
01:05:46.429 --> 01:05:49.015
Hang on to these.
I have backups in my desk.
809
01:05:49.266 --> 01:05:50.725
And you have to jimmy that.
810
01:05:50.934 --> 01:05:52.894
- Jimmy what?
- You have to jimmy the key.
811
01:05:53.103 --> 01:05:57.774
And the other doors don't unlock.
You have to jimmy it.
812
01:06:13.957 --> 01:06:15.709
Come on, I'm jimmying it.
813
01:06:18.962 --> 01:06:20.380
Oh, no!
814
01:06:21.715 --> 01:06:23.133
Come on.
815
01:06:36.229 --> 01:06:38.231
- Here's the file, Mr. Ribbon.
- Thank you.
816
01:06:43.153 --> 01:06:45.947
- Thanks a lot.
- Oh, yeah, thanks. Great idea.
817
01:06:50.243 --> 01:06:53.204
No, no, no!
818
01:07:03.340 --> 01:07:06.092
Rachel, get Ristuccia on the phone
for me, please.
819
01:07:54.558 --> 01:07:55.725
- Hi.
- Hi.
820
01:07:55.976 --> 01:07:58.520
I'm Chris Gardner. I have
an appointment with Mr. Ribbon.
821
01:07:58.728 --> 01:08:00.146
Oh, you just missed him.
822
01:08:02.732 --> 01:08:04.276
Thank you.
823
01:08:28.425 --> 01:08:32.262
- What's that?
- Just filling out a cheque...
824
01:08:32.512 --> 01:08:34.973
...paying some bills...
825
01:08:35.181 --> 01:08:37.225
...and a parking ticket.
826
01:08:39.102 --> 01:08:41.146
We don't have a car anymore.
827
01:08:41.354 --> 01:08:43.565
Yep, I know.
828
01:08:47.110 --> 01:08:50.155
I'm gonna need to take you
with me this weekend.
829
01:08:50.363 --> 01:08:52.616
A couple of doctors' offices.
830
01:08:53.116 --> 01:08:56.912
- On sales calls, okay?
- Okay.
831
01:08:59.873 --> 01:09:03.835
Then, possibly,
we'll go to the football game.
832
01:09:04.044 --> 01:09:06.880
- Really?
- Possibly.
833
01:09:07.297 --> 01:09:09.758
- All right?
- All right.
834
01:09:09.966 --> 01:09:12.052
Come on, finish up.
835
01:09:12.552 --> 01:09:15.513
- Are you sure?
- Possibly.
836
01:09:16.723 --> 01:09:18.308
Really?
837
01:09:48.255 --> 01:09:52.801
- Are you bringing it to the game?
- Yeah, I don't wanna leave it.
838
01:09:53.009 --> 01:09:55.971
And maybe
we're going to the game.
839
01:09:57.514 --> 01:10:01.434
- Where are we going now?
- To see someone about my job.
840
01:10:01.851 --> 01:10:03.478
I don't understand.
841
01:10:03.687 --> 01:10:06.898
- You don't understand what?
- Are we going to the game?
842
01:10:07.107 --> 01:10:09.651
I said possibly
we're going to the game.
843
01:10:09.859 --> 01:10:12.195
- You know what "possibly" means?
- Like probably.
844
01:10:12.445 --> 01:10:15.031
No, "probably" means there's
a good chance that we're going.
845
01:10:15.282 --> 01:10:17.993
"Possibly" means we might,
we might not.
846
01:10:18.201 --> 01:10:21.246
- What does "probably" mean?
- It means we have a good chance.
847
01:10:21.454 --> 01:10:22.831
And what does "possibly" mean?
848
01:10:23.039 --> 01:10:25.500
- I know what it means.
- What does it mean?
849
01:10:25.709 --> 01:10:28.253
It means that we're not going
to the game.
850
01:10:29.963 --> 01:10:33.174
- How did you get so smart?
- Because you're smart.
851
01:10:38.305 --> 01:10:41.016
- Are we there?
- Yeah.
852
01:10:46.563 --> 01:10:48.106
- Mr. Ribbon.
- Yes?
853
01:10:48.315 --> 01:10:51.192
How are you, sir?
Chris Gardner. Dean Witter.
854
01:10:51.735 --> 01:10:54.195
- Oh, hi. Hi.
- This is my son, Christopher.
855
01:10:54.404 --> 01:10:55.906
- Hi.
- Hey, Christopher.
856
01:10:56.156 --> 01:10:58.533
- What are you doing up here?
- I came to apologise...
857
01:10:58.742 --> 01:11:01.369
...for missing our appointment.
- You didn't need to come up.
858
01:11:01.578 --> 01:11:04.206
We were in the neighbourhood
visiting a very close friend...
859
01:11:04.414 --> 01:11:07.918
...and I wanted to take this opportunity
to say thank you for your time.
860
01:11:08.168 --> 01:11:10.962
- I know you probably waited for me.
- Little bit.
861
01:11:11.171 --> 01:11:13.715
I want you to know
that I do not take that for granted.
862
01:11:13.924 --> 01:11:15.967
Oh, come on. What's that?
863
01:11:16.218 --> 01:11:19.638
Oh, it's an Osteo National
bone-density scanner.
864
01:11:20.472 --> 01:11:23.391
A company I bought into
prior to going to work at Witter.
865
01:11:23.600 --> 01:11:26.228
- I have a meeting after the game.
- You're going to the game?
866
01:11:26.436 --> 01:11:28.230
- Yeah.
- Possibly.
867
01:11:29.272 --> 01:11:30.607
- Possibly.
- We're going too.
868
01:11:30.857 --> 01:11:32.484
I'm taking my son, Tim.
My 12-year-old.
869
01:11:32.692 --> 01:11:33.818
We were just leaving. Tim!
870
01:11:34.110 --> 01:11:36.029
Listen, we'll get out of your way.
871
01:11:36.279 --> 01:11:38.949
Again, thank you very much,
and I'm sorry about the other day.
872
01:11:39.199 --> 01:11:41.243
And I hope that
we can reschedule for later.
873
01:11:41.451 --> 01:11:42.953
- You got it.
- Thank you very much.
874
01:11:43.203 --> 01:11:44.829
You take care. Here, come on.
875
01:11:45.038 --> 01:11:46.373
- Say bye-bye, Chris.
- Bye.
876
01:11:46.623 --> 01:11:48.208
Bye, Christopher.
877
01:11:48.458 --> 01:11:49.918
Hey, you guys wanna
come with us?
878
01:11:50.126 --> 01:11:53.088
- What...? To Candlestick?
- We're going now. Come with us.
879
01:11:53.296 --> 01:11:56.424
- Where are your seats?
- We've... We're upper deck.
880
01:11:56.633 --> 01:11:57.884
We got a box. Come on.
881
01:11:58.134 --> 01:12:00.262
- You wanna sit in the box?
- No.
882
01:12:01.471 --> 01:12:05.392
It's not actually a box.
It's, you know, a private section.
883
01:12:05.642 --> 01:12:08.061
It's more comfortable.
You wanna go?
884
01:12:08.728 --> 01:12:12.440
- Okay.
- Okay, kids in the back.
885
01:12:13.066 --> 01:12:15.277
Hey, why don't you just put that
in your car?
886
01:12:17.988 --> 01:12:20.949
- Yeah, okay. Sure, sure.
- We don't have a car.
887
01:12:21.825 --> 01:12:24.035
- Oh, my...
- What happened?
888
01:12:24.244 --> 01:12:25.620
I think I got stung by a bee.
889
01:12:25.829 --> 01:12:28.748
- You all right?
- Oh, yeah. Goodness. I'm fine.
890
01:12:28.999 --> 01:12:31.543
- You're not allergic or anything?
- No, no, no.
891
01:12:31.793 --> 01:12:35.088
- Where'd he get you?
- Just right at the back of my head.
892
01:12:35.338 --> 01:12:37.716
- Are you okay?
- Yeah, I'm fine, Christopher.
893
01:12:37.924 --> 01:12:40.051
- Does it hurt?
- Christopher, I'm fine.
894
01:12:40.260 --> 01:12:44.139
- Let me see.
- Christopher, sit back. Sit back.
895
01:12:44.347 --> 01:12:46.683
Thomas Jefferson mentions
happiness a couple times...
896
01:12:46.933 --> 01:12:49.686
... in the Declaration
of Independence.
897
01:12:50.145 --> 01:12:52.689
May seem like a strange word
to be in that document...
898
01:12:52.939 --> 01:12:57.819
... but he was sort of...
He was an artist.
899
01:12:58.111 --> 01:13:02.657
He called the English
"the disturbers of our harmony."
900
01:13:02.949 --> 01:13:04.701
And I remember standing there
that day...
901
01:13:04.951 --> 01:13:07.203
... thinking about
the disturbers of mine.
902
01:13:07.454 --> 01:13:11.666
Questions I had.
Whether all this was good.
903
01:13:12.042 --> 01:13:13.835
Whether I'd make it.
904
01:13:16.880 --> 01:13:19.841
And Walter Ribbon
and his Pacific Bell pension money...
905
01:13:20.050 --> 01:13:21.384
... which was millions.
906
01:13:21.635 --> 01:13:23.220
Yeah!
907
01:13:23.720 --> 01:13:26.598
It was a way to another place.
908
01:13:27.390 --> 01:13:29.476
Wow, this is...
909
01:13:29.893 --> 01:13:31.811
This is the way
to watch a football game here.
910
01:13:32.062 --> 01:13:35.106
- Thank you very much for this, really.
- Hey, it's my pleasure, Chris.
911
01:13:35.315 --> 01:13:38.568
And, Mr. Ribbon, I also wanna thank
you for giving me the opportunity...
912
01:13:38.818 --> 01:13:41.655
...to discuss the asset management
capabilities of Dean Witter...
913
01:13:41.988 --> 01:13:44.115
...which we believe
to be far superior...
914
01:13:44.324 --> 01:13:46.910
...to anything you got going
over at Morgan Stanley.
915
01:13:47.160 --> 01:13:48.954
Really, I think you're gonna
be blown away.
916
01:13:49.496 --> 01:13:54.209
Point blank, Dean Witter needs to be
managing your retirement portfolio.
917
01:13:54.417 --> 01:13:56.962
You know, I didn't have any notion
that you were new there.
918
01:13:57.170 --> 01:14:00.632
I like you, but there's not a chance
I'm gonna let you direct our fund.
919
01:14:00.840 --> 01:14:02.926
That's just not gonna happen
anytime soon, buddy.
920
01:14:03.134 --> 01:14:06.263
So, you know, come on, relax.
Enjoy the game. Go, go, go!
921
01:14:07.264 --> 01:14:08.515
Yes!
922
01:14:11.518 --> 01:14:13.562
Yes! Yeah!
923
01:14:18.275 --> 01:14:19.317
- Here you go.
- All right.
924
01:14:19.526 --> 01:14:21.278
I've had a few ideas
already, absolutely.
925
01:14:21.528 --> 01:14:24.072
- Chris, I'll talk to you later.
- I'm gonna give you a call.
926
01:14:24.281 --> 01:14:25.949
Nice to meet you, Chris.
Give me a call.
927
01:14:26.199 --> 01:14:27.742
Yes, absolutely. Thank you.
928
01:14:34.624 --> 01:14:37.335
- Bye.
- Bye, Christopher.
929
01:15:06.823 --> 01:15:11.369
After four months, we had sold
all our scanners.
930
01:15:12.662 --> 01:15:14.039
It seemed we were making it.
931
01:15:14.998 --> 01:15:16.208
What's the...
932
01:15:16.583 --> 01:15:19.085
...fastest animal in the world?
- Jackrabbit.
933
01:15:21.296 --> 01:15:24.716
It seemed we were doing good.
934
01:15:24.925 --> 01:15:26.676
Until one day...
935
01:15:26.968 --> 01:15:28.637
... that day...
936
01:15:29.179 --> 01:15:31.139
... that letter brought me
back to earth.
937
01:15:38.521 --> 01:15:41.107
This part of my life is called
"Paying Taxes."
938
01:15:43.193 --> 01:15:44.486
If you didn't pay them...
939
01:15:44.736 --> 01:15:47.614
... the government could stick
their hands into your bank account...
940
01:15:48.281 --> 01:15:49.449
... and take your money.
941
01:15:49.699 --> 01:15:50.659
Dad.
942
01:15:50.867 --> 01:15:52.869
No warning. Nothing.
943
01:15:53.078 --> 01:15:56.206
It can't be too late.
That's my money.
944
01:15:56.456 --> 01:15:59.543
How is somebody just gonna
just take my money?
945
01:15:59.876 --> 01:16:01.169
I was... I was...
946
01:16:01.419 --> 01:16:04.673
Listen, I...
That's all the money that I have.
947
01:16:04.881 --> 01:16:09.177
You cannot go into my bank acc...
No...
948
01:16:09.386 --> 01:16:11.763
It was the 25th of September.
949
01:16:11.972 --> 01:16:13.682
I remember that day.
950
01:16:13.932 --> 01:16:15.976
Because that's the day
that I found out...
951
01:16:16.226 --> 01:16:21.314
... there was only 21 dollars
and 33 cents left in my bank account.
952
01:16:21.565 --> 01:16:23.191
I was broke.
953
01:16:33.577 --> 01:16:35.871
- Dressed yet?
- No.
954
01:16:39.749 --> 01:16:43.086
Chris! Chris!
Don't jerk me around, okay, Chris?
955
01:16:43.336 --> 01:16:46.047
I'm not jerking you around, Ralph,
all right? I'm gonna get it.
956
01:16:46.256 --> 01:16:49.843
- I need that money now, not later.
- When I get it, you get it, Ralph.
957
01:16:50.093 --> 01:16:51.928
Now!
958
01:16:55.640 --> 01:16:57.684
Hey, what's happening, man?
959
01:16:57.934 --> 01:17:00.770
Wayne, I need to get
that $14 from you.
960
01:17:02.439 --> 01:17:04.316
I thought I didn't owe you that now.
961
01:17:04.524 --> 01:17:07.569
- What? Why?
- Why what?
962
01:17:07.777 --> 01:17:10.155
Why would you think
you don't owe me my money?
963
01:17:10.363 --> 01:17:12.324
I helped you move.
964
01:17:14.618 --> 01:17:17.454
You drove me two blocks, Wayne.
965
01:17:17.704 --> 01:17:19.414
That's 200 yards.
966
01:17:19.623 --> 01:17:21.583
It's been four months, Wayne.
967
01:17:21.791 --> 01:17:25.378
I need my money. I need my money.
I need my money right now.
968
01:17:25.629 --> 01:17:27.923
- I don't have it, man. I'm sorry.
- Go get my money.
969
01:17:28.131 --> 01:17:30.342
- Wayne, get my mo...
- I really don't, man. It's $14.
970
01:17:30.592 --> 01:17:32.260
It's my $14!
Go get my money!
971
01:17:32.469 --> 01:17:35.013
- All of this for $14.
- Get my money, Wayne.
972
01:17:53.406 --> 01:17:55.533
Dad, look at me!
973
01:17:55.992 --> 01:17:57.702
Dad.
974
01:17:58.745 --> 01:18:02.249
- Should I go?
- Sure, man. Why not?
975
01:18:18.348 --> 01:18:19.349
- Stay here.
- Dad, look.
976
01:18:19.599 --> 01:18:21.142
- No, no. Stay right here.
- Dad.
977
01:18:21.351 --> 01:18:24.145
Did you hear what I said?
Did you hear me?
978
01:18:29.276 --> 01:18:32.737
- Dad, where you going?
- Hey, what did I say?
979
01:18:35.782 --> 01:18:37.409
Dad!
980
01:18:37.617 --> 01:18:40.996
Dad, wait! Dad!
981
01:18:49.212 --> 01:18:51.214
- Dad.
- I gotta...
982
01:18:51.423 --> 01:18:54.801
I gotta get back to the '60s, man.
That's what I wanna do.
983
01:18:55.051 --> 01:18:59.306
When I was younger. I wanna see
Jimi Hendrix do that guitar on fire.
984
01:19:02.392 --> 01:19:05.061
Bring back my time machine!
985
01:19:06.396 --> 01:19:08.064
Bring my time machine back!
986
01:19:16.948 --> 01:19:20.535
- Dad, where are we going?
- Be quiet.
987
01:19:21.161 --> 01:19:23.872
Go get your things. Go.
988
01:19:47.145 --> 01:19:48.772
- Chris?
- Yes.
989
01:19:49.022 --> 01:19:52.901
Dr. Telm can't get back to meet you.
I'm sorry.
990
01:20:04.120 --> 01:20:06.540
Where are we going now?
991
01:20:07.290 --> 01:20:10.585
We gotta... We gotta
see somebody else.
992
01:20:12.712 --> 01:20:14.798
I'm tired.
993
01:20:16.841 --> 01:20:18.426
I know.
994
01:20:25.809 --> 01:20:29.938
Doesn't seem to be functioning
right now.
995
01:20:30.397 --> 01:20:32.649
- I have to go now, Chris.
- No, no, no.
996
01:20:32.899 --> 01:20:36.736
Just give me a second. I'm sure
I'm gonna be able to figure it out.
997
01:20:38.572 --> 01:20:40.824
Chris. Chris, just come back
when it's working.
998
01:20:41.074 --> 01:20:43.869
- No, no. I have to fix it now.
- No.
999
01:20:44.077 --> 01:20:49.291
Look, I'll still be putting money
in the office, then, all right?
1000
01:20:49.499 --> 01:20:51.626
I really have to go, Chris.
1001
01:20:52.878 --> 01:20:54.546
Thank you. Thank you.
1002
01:20:54.754 --> 01:20:56.631
Thank you for your time.
I appreciate it.
1003
01:20:56.840 --> 01:20:58.508
I'll see you soon.
1004
01:21:50.560 --> 01:21:52.938
Why are our things here?
1005
01:21:53.980 --> 01:21:55.565
Dad.
1006
01:22:38.149 --> 01:22:40.819
- Let's go. Come on.
- Where?
1007
01:22:42.445 --> 01:22:44.739
- Just out of here.
- Why?
1008
01:22:44.948 --> 01:22:47.951
- We can't stay here tonight.
- Yes, we can. Open the door!
1009
01:22:48.201 --> 01:22:51.121
- Did you hear what I said? Let's go.
- Open the door!
1010
01:22:52.831 --> 01:22:56.710
Hey, did you hear what I said?
Stop it.
1011
01:22:56.960 --> 01:22:58.420
Stop it.
1012
01:23:02.674 --> 01:23:04.092
Come on.
1013
01:23:13.226 --> 01:23:14.686
Come on.
1014
01:23:31.661 --> 01:23:33.330
Wayne!
1015
01:23:34.456 --> 01:23:36.291
Wayne!
1016
01:23:43.506 --> 01:23:45.800
Wayne!
1017
01:24:01.358 --> 01:24:05.070
Get up. Stand up. Come on.
1018
01:24:20.919 --> 01:24:22.963
Where are we going?
1019
01:24:25.131 --> 01:24:28.468
- Dad, where are we going?
- I don't know.
1020
01:24:43.984 --> 01:24:46.361
It's not a time machine.
1021
01:24:46.570 --> 01:24:47.988
Dad.
1022
01:24:48.405 --> 01:24:49.698
It's not a time machine.
1023
01:24:49.906 --> 01:24:53.159
The guy said it was a time machine.
It's not a time machine. He was wrong.
1024
01:24:53.577 --> 01:24:55.912
- What guy?
- The guy. He was at the park.
1025
01:24:56.162 --> 01:24:58.039
He said it was a time machine.
1026
01:25:04.421 --> 01:25:05.630
Yes, it is.
1027
01:25:07.257 --> 01:25:09.009
No, it's not.
1028
01:25:11.011 --> 01:25:12.971
- It is.
- No, it's not.
1029
01:25:19.227 --> 01:25:23.732
All we gotta do is push
this black button right here.
1030
01:25:26.943 --> 01:25:28.069
Wanna push it?
1031
01:25:32.616 --> 01:25:34.242
Okay.
1032
01:25:35.785 --> 01:25:37.370
Come on.
1033
01:25:38.872 --> 01:25:40.498
Come on, man.
1034
01:25:46.213 --> 01:25:47.255
Right here.
1035
01:25:47.631 --> 01:25:49.257
Wait a minute.
Where you wanna go?
1036
01:25:49.633 --> 01:25:51.593
I don't know.
Some place from before.
1037
01:25:52.135 --> 01:25:53.386
You gotta close your eyes.
1038
01:25:53.678 --> 01:25:55.555
You close your eyes. I wanna see.
1039
01:25:57.724 --> 01:26:00.143
All right, come on.
We'll push it together.
1040
01:26:05.982 --> 01:26:07.776
You gotta close your eyes.
Close your eyes.
1041
01:26:08.485 --> 01:26:10.654
It takes a few seconds.
1042
01:26:13.073 --> 01:26:14.950
Oh, my goodness.
1043
01:26:15.158 --> 01:26:17.369
Open, open, open!
1044
01:26:20.789 --> 01:26:23.416
- What is it?
- Dinosaurs.
1045
01:26:23.667 --> 01:26:25.794
- Where?
- You don't see all these dinosaurs?
1046
01:26:27.170 --> 01:26:30.840
Look around.
Look at all these dinosaurs.
1047
01:26:32.592 --> 01:26:34.970
- Do you see them?
- Yeah.
1048
01:26:35.178 --> 01:26:36.596
Wait. Come on, come on.
1049
01:26:36.846 --> 01:26:38.139
- Wait, watch out.
- What is it?
1050
01:26:38.348 --> 01:26:40.392
Don't step in the fire.
We're cavemen.
1051
01:26:40.767 --> 01:26:42.978
We need this fire,
because there's no electricity...
1052
01:26:43.228 --> 01:26:44.604
...and it's cold out here, okay?
1053
01:26:45.313 --> 01:26:47.649
- Watch out!
- Whoa! Oh, my good... A T. rex.
1054
01:26:47.899 --> 01:26:51.486
Get your stuff.
Get your stuff. Get it.
1055
01:26:52.529 --> 01:26:55.574
- We gotta find someplace safe.
- Like what?
1056
01:26:55.782 --> 01:26:57.742
We need a cave.
1057
01:26:57.951 --> 01:26:59.035
A cave?
1058
01:26:59.286 --> 01:27:01.288
- We gotta find a cave. Come on.
- Okay.
1059
01:27:01.496 --> 01:27:03.248
Come on, come on.
1060
01:27:04.875 --> 01:27:06.209
Watch your back! Look out.
1061
01:27:06.459 --> 01:27:08.461
Here it is. Here's a cave. Come on.
1062
01:27:08.712 --> 01:27:11.548
Right here, right here.
Go, go, go.
1063
01:27:11.798 --> 01:27:13.008
Go ahead. Get in.
1064
01:27:13.216 --> 01:27:15.051
Hurry, hurry, hurry.
1065
01:27:18.680 --> 01:27:22.434
- Are we safe?
- Yeah, I think so.
1066
01:28:30.460 --> 01:28:32.045
Hey.
1067
01:28:33.630 --> 01:28:35.257
- How you doing, Jay?
- I'm doing good.
1068
01:28:35.465 --> 01:28:36.925
How are you getting along?
1069
01:28:37.133 --> 01:28:39.302
- Good. I'm good.
- You doing good?
1070
01:28:39.511 --> 01:28:42.055
- How you doing?
- I'm doing great.
1071
01:28:43.181 --> 01:28:44.808
Where you going?
1072
01:28:48.144 --> 01:28:51.106
I... Sacramento.
1073
01:28:51.815 --> 01:28:54.442
Because I'm trying to move
a couple guys from...
1074
01:28:54.651 --> 01:28:57.279
They're at PacBell,
and I'm trying to bring them over...
1075
01:28:57.487 --> 01:28:58.738
Get them over to us.
1076
01:28:58.989 --> 01:29:00.657
So they got me
going out there golfing.
1077
01:29:00.866 --> 01:29:02.701
Awesome.
1078
01:29:02.951 --> 01:29:04.870
Hey, let them win a round.
1079
01:29:10.083 --> 01:29:12.043
Deborah, someone's asking for you.
1080
01:29:12.294 --> 01:29:15.338
- Where?
- He's outside. Please come with me.
1081
01:29:23.221 --> 01:29:26.683
- Hi.
- How you doing?
1082
01:29:28.101 --> 01:29:30.645
- Can I ask you a question?
- Sure.
1083
01:29:32.856 --> 01:29:34.482
We need a room.
1084
01:29:35.108 --> 01:29:38.069
Just until I can fix this and sell it.
1085
01:29:38.278 --> 01:29:40.906
- There's just some glass work.
- Let me stop you right there.
1086
01:29:41.114 --> 01:29:43.575
- I wish I could help you...
- This is my son, Christopher.
1087
01:29:43.950 --> 01:29:45.911
- He's 5 years old.
- Hi, baby.
1088
01:29:46.161 --> 01:29:49.164
- We need some place to stay.
- Okay, and I would love to help you...
1089
01:29:49.372 --> 01:29:52.250
...but we don't take men here.
It's only women and children.
1090
01:29:52.459 --> 01:29:55.503
He can stay here, but you have
to find someplace else to go.
1091
01:29:55.712 --> 01:29:57.130
We gotta stay together.
1092
01:29:57.380 --> 01:29:58.673
We got... We're...
1093
01:29:58.882 --> 01:30:00.717
- Okay, listen.
- You gotta have some place...
1094
01:30:00.967 --> 01:30:03.803
Try Glide Memorial.
The building books up at 5.
1095
01:30:04.054 --> 01:30:05.513
So you hurry up. There's a line.
1096
01:30:05.722 --> 01:30:09.100
- And where is it? Come on.
- Ellis and Jones.
1097
01:30:44.344 --> 01:30:49.975
Hey, everybody. We have
four spots left, and that's all.
1098
01:30:50.392 --> 01:30:53.270
- Man.
- Hey, come on, man.
1099
01:30:53.478 --> 01:30:54.688
- Come on.
- Come on, what?
1100
01:30:54.938 --> 01:30:56.481
- Hey, that's my spot.
- Back off.
1101
01:30:56.690 --> 01:30:59.109
Come on, don't do this to me.
Don't...
1102
01:31:01.528 --> 01:31:03.071
Dad!
1103
01:31:03.530 --> 01:31:05.574
Stop it! Break it up!
Break it up!
1104
01:31:05.782 --> 01:31:07.367
Stop! Stop!
1105
01:31:07.576 --> 01:31:09.870
Get out of line, both of you.
Both of you.
1106
01:31:10.120 --> 01:31:12.664
I was here first. They told me
that we had to be on time.
1107
01:31:12.956 --> 01:31:14.916
I got here on time. I was in line.
1108
01:31:15.125 --> 01:31:16.877
I came from work, I got my son.
1109
01:31:17.127 --> 01:31:19.588
I was here on time.
We were here on time!
1110
01:31:19.796 --> 01:31:21.423
He sliced in front of him in line.
1111
01:31:21.631 --> 01:31:23.925
- Who did?
- He did.
1112
01:31:24.217 --> 01:31:28.722
Come on, come on, Rodney.
Come on. Let's go. Get out of line.
1113
01:31:37.981 --> 01:31:39.941
That's it. No more.
1114
01:31:46.990 --> 01:31:49.951
- What's your favourite colour?
- Green.
1115
01:31:50.160 --> 01:31:51.411
Green?
1116
01:31:51.661 --> 01:31:54.623
- What do you like that's green?
- Trees.
1117
01:31:54.831 --> 01:31:57.792
Trees. What else?
1118
01:31:58.001 --> 01:31:59.461
Holly.
1119
01:32:01.254 --> 01:32:05.217
- Holly. What's holly?
- The Christmas stuff.
1120
01:32:06.009 --> 01:32:07.969
Christmas stuff.
1121
01:32:08.762 --> 01:32:10.513
What's that?
1122
01:32:13.767 --> 01:32:16.645
I guess they want us to go to sleep.
1123
01:32:23.193 --> 01:32:28.198
Here you go. We gotta make sure
Captain America's warm in there.
1124
01:32:28.698 --> 01:32:30.367
Can he breathe?
1125
01:32:30.617 --> 01:32:32.827
- He's good?
- Yeah.
1126
01:32:33.286 --> 01:32:35.288
- I gotta go work on the scanner...
- Don't go.
1127
01:32:35.539 --> 01:32:38.667
No, no, no. I'm gonna be
right outside the door.
1128
01:32:38.875 --> 01:32:43.004
All right? I'm just gonna be right there.
I'll leave the door open a little bit.
1129
01:32:43.547 --> 01:32:46.216
And I'll be able to hear you
if you call me.
1130
01:32:46.383 --> 01:32:48.885
I wanna go home.
1131
01:32:50.971 --> 01:32:54.766
But that's why I gotta
work on the scanner.
1132
01:32:55.725 --> 01:32:57.477
All right?
1133
01:32:57.727 --> 01:32:59.604
I'm gonna go out there.
1134
01:32:59.813 --> 01:33:03.191
I'm gonna leave the door open.
I'll be right up the stairs.
1135
01:33:04.317 --> 01:33:05.986
I'll be able to hear you
if you call me.
1136
01:33:06.987 --> 01:33:09.072
- All right?
- All right.
1137
01:33:09.322 --> 01:33:11.616
You gotta trust me, okay?
1138
01:33:11.825 --> 01:33:13.869
You gotta trust me.
1139
01:33:14.744 --> 01:33:17.372
I trust you. I trust you.
1140
01:33:17.581 --> 01:33:19.040
I trust you.
1141
01:33:19.249 --> 01:33:22.210
- I can't hear you.
- I trust you. I trust you.
1142
01:33:26.089 --> 01:33:27.757
Give me a kiss.
1143
01:33:40.437 --> 01:33:43.398
- I'll just be a little while, okay?
- All right.
1144
01:33:43.857 --> 01:33:46.318
- I'll be right here.
- Okay.
1145
01:33:46.526 --> 01:33:48.737
- Can you still hear me?
- Yeah.
1146
01:33:48.945 --> 01:33:50.405
- Can you hear me?
- Yeah.
1147
01:33:50.697 --> 01:33:53.116
- Do you trust me?
- Yeah.
1148
01:34:40.330 --> 01:34:41.998
- Yeah.
- Like that?
1149
01:34:42.249 --> 01:34:45.877
- Yeah, put that...
- Then you go like that.
1150
01:34:46.086 --> 01:34:49.589
- Is that okay?
- I don't know. What do you think?
1151
01:34:49.839 --> 01:34:50.840
Good.
1152
01:34:52.175 --> 01:34:54.427
Let's go. Get your stuff.
1153
01:34:55.679 --> 01:34:58.640
- Dad, why don't you leave it?
- We can't.
1154
01:34:58.848 --> 01:35:00.976
We're gonna have
a different room later.
1155
01:35:01.184 --> 01:35:02.727
Go.
1156
01:35:08.108 --> 01:35:09.442
Hey, Chris.
1157
01:35:09.693 --> 01:35:12.988
- Hey, good morning, Mr. Frakesh.
- What's up?
1158
01:35:14.030 --> 01:35:15.156
Work trip.
1159
01:35:15.365 --> 01:35:17.659
Your wife, Martha, works at
PacBell also, correct?
1160
01:35:17.868 --> 01:35:19.619
- Yes, she does.
- And you guys are both...
1161
01:35:19.870 --> 01:35:21.496
...looking to retire at the same time?
1162
01:35:21.705 --> 01:35:23.790
We'd like to retire
and maintain our lifestyle...
1163
01:35:24.040 --> 01:35:25.417
...without paying a lot of taxes.
1164
01:35:25.625 --> 01:35:29.129
So basically, you want nobody's hands
in your pockets but your own?
1165
01:35:29.713 --> 01:35:31.631
Are you familiar with
tax-free municipal?
1166
01:35:31.882 --> 01:35:33.717
I learned to finish my work quickly.
1167
01:35:34.050 --> 01:35:36.219
I had to finish quickly.
1168
01:35:36.553 --> 01:35:40.056
To get in line at Glide by 5.
1169
01:35:43.810 --> 01:35:45.687
Come on.
1170
01:35:46.229 --> 01:35:47.772
Come on.
1171
01:35:51.902 --> 01:35:54.654
Hold that bus! Hold the bus!
1172
01:35:55.572 --> 01:35:57.282
My Captain America!
1173
01:35:57.574 --> 01:35:59.826
Dad! Dad! Dad!
1174
01:36:00.076 --> 01:36:03.288
Stop it! Shut up! Shut up!
1175
01:36:05.665 --> 01:36:07.667
- Why don't you let the lady in?
- Hey, back up.
1176
01:36:07.918 --> 01:36:10.921
- Hey, man, that's not cool.
- Back up! Back up!
1177
01:36:19.262 --> 01:36:20.722
Come on.
1178
01:36:23.767 --> 01:36:25.936
Dad, we need to get it!
1179
01:36:28.605 --> 01:36:31.191
The important thing about
that freedom train...
1180
01:36:31.441 --> 01:36:33.568
... is it's got to climb mountains.
1181
01:36:33.777 --> 01:36:36.530
We all have to deal with mountains.
1182
01:36:36.780 --> 01:36:39.658
You know, mountains
that go way up high.
1183
01:36:40.116 --> 01:36:42.077
And mountains that go
deep and low.
1184
01:36:42.285 --> 01:36:43.578
- Amen, preacher!
- Yes.
1185
01:36:43.787 --> 01:36:46.081
We know what those mountains are,
here at Glide.
1186
01:36:46.373 --> 01:36:48.500
We sing about them.
1187
01:36:49.292 --> 01:36:54.798
Lord, don't move that mountain
1188
01:36:56.216 --> 01:37:02.639
Give me strength to climb it
1189
01:37:03.139 --> 01:37:09.813
Please don't move
That stumbling block
1190
01:37:10.063 --> 01:37:16.611
But lead me, Lord, around it
1191
01:37:18.238 --> 01:37:23.285
My burdens, they get so heavy
1192
01:37:25.161 --> 01:37:30.750
Seems hard to bear
1193
01:37:31.668 --> 01:37:35.255
But I won't give up
No, no
1194
01:37:35.505 --> 01:37:37.465
Because you promised me
1195
01:37:37.674 --> 01:37:44.431
You'd meet me at the altar of prayer
1196
01:37:44.681 --> 01:37:52.147
- Lord don't move that mountain
- Please don't move that mountain
1197
01:37:52.355 --> 01:37:57.652
But give me strength to climb it
1198
01:37:59.863 --> 01:38:01.865
When's your test?
1199
01:38:03.116 --> 01:38:04.576
Tomorrow.
1200
01:38:08.955 --> 01:38:10.749
Are you ready?
1201
01:38:14.711 --> 01:38:16.087
Of course.
1202
01:38:55.252 --> 01:38:56.503
Thank you, sir.
1203
01:39:05.929 --> 01:39:08.056
- Hey. How you doing?
- Hey.
1204
01:39:12.102 --> 01:39:15.063
So did you finish the whole thing,
or you have to go somewhere?
1205
01:39:15.272 --> 01:39:17.732
I have to go somewhere.
1206
01:39:18.358 --> 01:39:21.152
- But I finished the whole thing too.
- Oh, good.
1207
01:39:21.361 --> 01:39:23.280
- You?
- Yeah.
1208
01:39:23.780 --> 01:39:26.741
- How'd you feel about the graphs?
- Easy.
1209
01:39:27.784 --> 01:39:31.830
I struggled with the essay question
on the back. What did you write?
1210
01:39:32.038 --> 01:39:35.667
- Essay question?
- Yeah, on the back.
1211
01:39:45.635 --> 01:39:46.928
Hey, Chris.
1212
01:39:47.137 --> 01:39:50.432
- Hey. Jeff, right? 49ers game.
- Yeah.
1213
01:39:50.640 --> 01:39:54.102
- Yeah, you were gonna give me a call?
- I never actually got your number.
1214
01:39:55.896 --> 01:39:57.814
Here's my number.
Call me, okay?
1215
01:39:58.064 --> 01:40:00.734
Yes, sir. Absolutely.
Thank you very much.
1216
01:40:01.484 --> 01:40:05.238
Chris, you got five bucks?
I left my wallet upstairs.
1217
01:40:05.488 --> 01:40:07.699
Let me run up and grab that
for you, Mr. Frohm.
1218
01:40:07.908 --> 01:40:10.911
No, I gotta be at CAL Bank at 4,
and I'm late.
1219
01:40:16.333 --> 01:40:18.460
- I'll pay you back, honest.
- Five is good?
1220
01:40:18.668 --> 01:40:22.297
Five is lovely. Thank you.
Thank you.
1221
01:40:35.685 --> 01:40:38.146
That's it. That's the room quota.
1222
01:40:38.521 --> 01:40:41.274
There's no more space.
You gotta head out.
1223
01:40:41.524 --> 01:40:44.361
That's it for today.
Come back tomorrow.
1224
01:40:44.611 --> 01:40:47.572
All the rooms are full.
It's completely full.
1225
01:40:47.781 --> 01:40:52.077
That's it. Just keep heading out.
Come back tomorrow.
1226
01:41:27.070 --> 01:41:28.822
You like it?
1227
01:42:19.873 --> 01:42:23.543
Twenty. One, two, three, four.
1228
01:42:26.630 --> 01:42:30.258
Now, here's your bulb,
and there's your ferrite core inductor.
1229
01:42:30.467 --> 01:42:33.261
- How much?
- Eight dollars.
1230
01:42:34.387 --> 01:42:37.682
- What's that?
- It's to repair the light.
1231
01:42:37.891 --> 01:42:39.935
Can I see it?
1232
01:42:41.811 --> 01:42:44.898
Yeah, sure. Just don't break it.
1233
01:42:45.148 --> 01:42:49.611
Unless you wanna sleep in a room
with me for the rest of your life.
1234
01:42:50.820 --> 01:42:52.656
I don't mind.
1235
01:42:53.156 --> 01:42:54.950
Yeah, you will.
1236
01:43:11.258 --> 01:43:13.635
Why don't you
get some sleep, okay?
1237
01:43:13.843 --> 01:43:14.970
Okay.
1238
01:43:15.178 --> 01:43:18.306
- Warm enough?
- Yeah.
1239
01:43:18.598 --> 01:43:20.225
All right.
1240
01:43:22.352 --> 01:43:25.230
Did Mom leave because of me?
1241
01:43:28.608 --> 01:43:32.779
- What?
- Did Mom leave because of me?
1242
01:43:37.367 --> 01:43:41.872
Don't... Don't even think
something like that.
1243
01:43:42.956 --> 01:43:45.083
Mom left because of Mom.
1244
01:43:45.292 --> 01:43:47.544
And you didn't have anything
to do with that, okay?
1245
01:43:48.295 --> 01:43:50.171
Okay.
1246
01:44:00.056 --> 01:44:02.058
You're a good papa.
1247
01:44:09.900 --> 01:44:11.902
All right, go to sleep.
1248
01:44:12.736 --> 01:44:15.655
- I love you.
- I love you too.
1249
01:45:12.128 --> 01:45:14.089
So far, so good, Chris.
1250
01:45:20.220 --> 01:45:22.764
- It works.
- Thank you very much.
1251
01:45:22.973 --> 01:45:26.768
Two hundred and fifty dollars.
Four more weeks of oxygen.
1252
01:45:27.143 --> 01:45:31.356
One hundred, 20, 40, 60, 80, 200.
1253
01:45:31.565 --> 01:45:34.317
Twenty, 30, 40, 50.
1254
01:45:35.485 --> 01:45:37.112
- Anything else?
- Nope, that's it.
1255
01:45:37.320 --> 01:45:38.613
Thank you. Thank you.
1256
01:45:38.822 --> 01:45:40.782
- You ready?
- Yep.
1257
01:45:42.742 --> 01:45:45.620
- Are we going to the church place?
- No.
1258
01:45:45.829 --> 01:45:47.789
Where are we going, then?
1259
01:45:48.582 --> 01:45:51.126
- Probably stay at a hotel.
- A hotel?
1260
01:45:51.334 --> 01:45:52.419
Just for the night.
1261
01:45:52.669 --> 01:45:55.380
We can go back to the cave
if you like.
1262
01:45:55.589 --> 01:45:57.299
No, thank you.
1263
01:45:57.507 --> 01:46:00.051
- Ever?
- I hope not.
1264
01:46:00.260 --> 01:46:01.720
Why not?
1265
01:46:01.928 --> 01:46:04.723
Well, because some things are fun
the first time you do them...
1266
01:46:04.931 --> 01:46:07.267
...and then not so much the next.
1267
01:46:07.517 --> 01:46:10.353
- Like the bus?
- Yeah, like the bus.
1268
01:46:10.604 --> 01:46:14.024
I'm sorry. Guess I shouldn't laugh,
should I?
1269
01:46:14.274 --> 01:46:17.611
It's promised in the Bible.
Pa says we'll find it some day.
1270
01:46:17.861 --> 01:46:20.197
He doesn't know where it is, though.
1271
01:46:21.114 --> 01:46:24.326
Didn't you ever want to have a home
of your own like other people?
1272
01:46:24.534 --> 01:46:26.369
Sure.
1273
01:46:26.786 --> 01:46:28.872
Sometimes when we're moving
at night...
1274
01:46:29.122 --> 01:46:32.250
... we pass houses with lights
and people.
1275
01:46:32.459 --> 01:46:35.212
Sometimes you can
hear them laughing...
1276
01:46:39.466 --> 01:46:42.844
The next day, after work...
1277
01:46:43.053 --> 01:46:45.263
... we just went to the beach.
1278
01:46:45.472 --> 01:46:47.349
Far away from anything.
1279
01:46:47.557 --> 01:46:48.934
Everything.
1280
01:46:49.142 --> 01:46:50.810
Just Christopher and me.
1281
01:46:52.479 --> 01:46:54.814
- Did you see me?
- Yeah.
1282
01:46:55.065 --> 01:46:58.109
Far away from buses and noise...
1283
01:46:58.318 --> 01:47:03.949
... and a constant disappointment
in my ten-gallon head...
1284
01:47:05.158 --> 01:47:06.993
... and in myself.
1285
01:47:07.577 --> 01:47:09.955
- Chris, thank you very much.
- Well, thank you, Dean.
1286
01:47:10.163 --> 01:47:11.998
- Take care.
- You made all the right moves.
1287
01:47:12.249 --> 01:47:13.708
Thanks, Chris.
1288
01:47:15.835 --> 01:47:17.128
Because when I was young...
1289
01:47:17.337 --> 01:47:21.091
... and I'd get an A on a history test
or whatever...
1290
01:47:21.341 --> 01:47:25.887
... I'd get this good feeling about
all the things that I could be.
1291
01:47:27.847 --> 01:47:31.434
And then I never became
any of them.
1292
01:47:38.942 --> 01:47:41.486
- Hey, Chris.
- Hey.
1293
01:47:41.695 --> 01:47:44.322
- How you doing, Jay?
- I'm doing fine.
1294
01:47:44.531 --> 01:47:48.660
Rumour has it you signed 31 accounts
for us from Pacific Bell.
1295
01:47:48.869 --> 01:47:50.287
Yeah, yeah.
1296
01:47:50.537 --> 01:47:54.291
Met some guys at a ball game,
got some cards. I've been working.
1297
01:47:54.541 --> 01:47:56.126
I guess.
1298
01:47:59.129 --> 01:48:01.339
So one more day.
1299
01:48:01.548 --> 01:48:03.133
Getting nervous?
1300
01:48:03.717 --> 01:48:06.094
- No, I'm okay.
- Yeah?
1301
01:48:06.303 --> 01:48:08.221
Listen, whatever happens...
1302
01:48:08.471 --> 01:48:10.849
...you've done a fantastic job, Chris.
1303
01:48:11.057 --> 01:48:12.601
I mean that.
1304
01:48:13.476 --> 01:48:15.270
Take care of yourself.
1305
01:48:30.327 --> 01:48:33.455
Yes, Mr. Johnson.
Chris Gardner, Dean Witter.
1306
01:48:33.830 --> 01:48:35.874
Yes, sir. Just calling
to thank you very much...
1307
01:48:36.082 --> 01:48:38.585
...for your support
at last month's seminar.
1308
01:48:39.169 --> 01:48:40.795
Yes, sir. Absolutely.
1309
01:48:41.421 --> 01:48:43.048
Yes, sir.
1310
01:48:43.256 --> 01:48:44.633
No, sir, that's it.
1311
01:48:44.841 --> 01:48:47.302
Thank you very much. Bye-bye.
1312
01:48:48.929 --> 01:48:51.806
Chris. Come.
1313
01:49:19.209 --> 01:49:22.295
- Hi, Chris.
- Mr. Frohm, good to see you.
1314
01:49:23.463 --> 01:49:25.340
- Nice shirt.
- Thank you, sir.
1315
01:49:25.549 --> 01:49:26.758
- Chris.
- Hey, Jay.
1316
01:49:27.217 --> 01:49:31.471
- Chris.
- Chris, sit down, please.
1317
01:49:34.391 --> 01:49:38.478
I thought I'd wear a shirt today.
1318
01:49:38.728 --> 01:49:40.647
You know,
being the last day and all.
1319
01:49:40.897 --> 01:49:44.192
Well, thank you. Thank you.
We appreciate that.
1320
01:49:45.068 --> 01:49:46.862
But...
1321
01:49:47.070 --> 01:49:49.865
...wear one tomorrow though, okay?
1322
01:49:50.073 --> 01:49:52.993
Because tomorrow's
going to be your first day...
1323
01:49:53.743 --> 01:49:56.955
...if you'd like to work here
as a broker.
1324
01:49:58.331 --> 01:50:00.125
Would you like that, Chris?
1325
01:50:01.084 --> 01:50:02.627
Yes, sir.
1326
01:50:02.836 --> 01:50:06.214
Good. We couldn't be happier.
1327
01:50:07.173 --> 01:50:10.343
So welcome.
1328
01:50:12.262 --> 01:50:17.225
- Was it as easy as it looked?
- No, sir. No, sir, it wasn't.
1329
01:50:19.603 --> 01:50:21.938
- Good luck, Chris.
- Thank you. Thank you.
1330
01:50:26.359 --> 01:50:28.028
Thank you, sir.
1331
01:50:28.361 --> 01:50:30.238
Oh, Chris.
1332
01:50:32.782 --> 01:50:34.826
I almost forgot.
1333
01:50:36.870 --> 01:50:38.413
Thank you.
1334
01:50:58.808 --> 01:51:01.019
This part of my life...
1335
01:51:01.978 --> 01:51:04.105
