Searching For Atticus

The Pursuit of Happyness


Listen Later

Will Smith and his son Jaden star in the inspiring real-life story of Chris Gardner, who went from being a homeless single father to a successful stockbroker in the early 1980s. It’s a story close to Kofi’s heart – having spent part of his childhood relying on shelters and food banks. Will spends much of this movie running, so we debate what he’s chasing and whether the chase serves as a metaphor.  We talk about loneliness, faith in your dreams, and the power of affirmation from your five year-old child.  And we introduce the Finch-O-Meter: our scale for rating the men and the dads in each film we’ll watch.
