what a nice guy. I hope he doesn't slap someone in the future.
Lol
Not gonna happen, not even for a joke
Will Smith Slapped him not the Chris Gardner Character lol
bro this video was 1 year ago why people comparing him to who he was, he was and is a great actor
@@nicholas6471 he was a good actor huh? ever since the slappening
“He must have had on some really nice pants…”
A legendary answer
he said if he don't know the answer he will said he don't know but he just answer will bullshit without said he don't know first.they just caught a liar lol
@@oratank he asked what would he say
This is how everyone's grandparents got a job.
@@oratank Did you even watch the movie? Dude why would he say he doesn't know if he knows the answer?
@@spindrift_ i didn't watch it but from what you said that mean the old man did hired the guy with no shirt because he has a nice pants?
Its a real slap in the face that this didn't win an Oscar
😂😂
@@DhrubajyotiRaja01 you missed the joke. This is a will Smith movie

😂I got it 👍
Keep his not winning the oscar out of your fucking mouth :P
“I’m the type of person that if I don’t know something I will say I don’t know” I’ve said those exact words a handful of times and hearing that brought chills to my spine
Engineering in a nutshell...
At least for me 🤷
You just put the frozen bag of fries in the hot boiling grease and then pull them up when their golden brown. It’s not really all that complicated. It should only take about 4-5 minutes total. Don’t forget to preheat the grease at 400 degrees for a couple of minutes first. Now you know
@@Blake-ub4ts😆
If he couldn't find the answer, Will just slapped ems silly😆
The "nice pants" line is actually secretly genius because
1. Memorable and funny (standing out among the applicants is crucial)
2. It shows his ability to think outside the box instead of focusing on the problem (the shirt)
and of course, suggests the problem doesn't make him unhirable without trying to justify the problem
@@cameronschiff132 exactly...emphasizing strengths over flaws (the classic "What are your weaknesses" problem)
I"m not trying to sound condescending but there's nothing inconspicuous or secret about that...infact it's a common sales tactic that's so cliche and overused I learned it waiting tables for 10 years haha.
And since i'm on the topic of pomposity it's a bit presumptuous & condescending of you to literally explain the obvious...it's rather insulting tbh.
Maybe it's just me. *shrug*
@@a1mtarabichi Accusing someone for being condescending and then claiming you yourself aren't being condescending....I can see why you spent 10 years as a waiter and never got anywhere with your life
its called 'Melanin' brotha
Saddest part of this movie is when he tells an imaginative story to keep him and his son’s mind off the fact they’re sleeping in a subway restroom.
"his" and his son's mind..."
I felt split on that. One hand it is sad that his son was suffering for his ambitions, on the other hand quitting his job is what put them in those circumstance.
The Pursuit of Happiness shows why it is so hard to break out of poverty in America. Without a a financial cushion WS plan was insanely risky.
@@elmoblatch9787 you buried him elmo, absolutely buried him!
@@elmoblatch9787 oh, sorry friend, but it looks as though you've misspelled your entire sentence. I believe the proper phrase you were seeking is, "I'm an asshole who makes useless comments on others' grammar, adding nothing of note to the months-old comment left on a decades-old film clip."
That being said, this film is beautiful and fulfills the role of a feel-good, "anything is possible in America" story far better than its predecessors.
Why was there no salary?
I remember really nailing it in my interview on my first job. When I was interviewed, the Head Supervisor asked me what I've been doing for 5months before this interview and I told him truthfully that I applied to more than 12+ companies and there was no callback since. When asked "why should we hire you despite it all?" And I responded, "Because I keep on trying. I wouldn't be here if I didn't try." After all that, I was hired right then and there. It was a very memorable interview for me and it is something I will never forget in my career. 😊 Keep going 👍
Must've had on some really nice pants
Only 12+? Those are rookie numbers. Some people pull those number in a morning.
@@nubbiewubbie7285 maybe it was back when applications weren’t all virtual? They did say it was for their first job
@@nubbiewubbie7285 Yeah in real life is like 200+ and you look bad if you didn't get a job after 200 applications.
12 companies in 5 months?
I used that line yesterday of “I don’t know the answer I will find it” in my interview yesterday. I got the acceptance letter today! I literally watched this scene before my virtual interview. And they told me I was the FIRST person to ever dress up in a virtual interview! I needed this for inspiration
Congratulations B.Dailey! I'm right with you on that line in an interview.
I Absolutely love my career that has followed. I Thank the lord everyday for looking out..
Bet that was cringey.
@@Gameboy-Unboxings bet you're unemployed
“He must have had on some really nice pants”

There's a lot of them on RUclips.
@@broxxad
If he just had some nice pants but they were at home in his closet it wouldn’t have made any difference

@@MrWillyCCand all the legends defended him and said they would’ve done the same thing
Smith really nailed this role. No matter what if this movie is on I always find myself watching it from whatever point I find it to the end.
Ahhh i remember cable
Of course smith nailed this role. He's black in america. Ya he's got it good, he got lucky and put in a lot of work. But the struggle of how you must act in this country to get ahead, especcially a black man, he has always connected with the people on that level. He understands this role and nails it well cause I bet he's not acting any different than a normal black man would to get any job. I'd like to see trump try and nail the role and be believable, lols, he'd have no clue how to method that.
will smith at its finest whenever he plays roles like this
@@Pariatical he’s also an actor...trump isn’t, so...he probably wouldn’t be believable in any role 🥴
Can you name a movie he hasn't nailed? Totally serious question as I can't seem to think of one myself.
I once quit my great paying job and drove cross-country to hand-deliver my resume for a job I really wanted. I was scheduled for an interview with a panel of 7 executives within two days. One of the many questions they asked me was, "how would you feel if you didn't get the job". I said, "I'd be fine because I know I did everything in my power to get it so I don't have an excuse that I didn't try hard enough". One of the last questioned they asked me was, "where do you see yourself in 5-years", I said, "celebrating the 5-year anniversary of you asking me that question", they all laughed. Yes, I did get the job.
Edit# Most likely any question you have, I've already answered. Just read through the replies.
I have a question, how did you fit in a panel of 7 plus yourself with those huge balls you have?
Awesome story man! Cheers.
You're a fellow Mitch Hedberg fan I see. Kudos on your work!
@@staticbreakup Nice! I'm glad you recognized that. I didn't want to go into detail where I got it from but I actually used it and the faces they made were priceless but we all had a good laugh.
@R D Karen, you're late! You usually show up right when people are having fun. What happened was there a problem you needed to alert a manager about?!
I used to watch this movie all the time with my dad. I didn’t realize that he saw himself in this movie. A man struggling to provide a life for his son in a world where it’s tough. I miss my father everyday and this movie reminds me of him so much
He is with you my friend, and he loves you everyday.
This story tells us that if you work hard enough one day success will just come quick and unexpectedly like a *slap in the face*
I used his line about finding out the answer during a job interview, nailed it.
It works.
whats the line
@@elmerfiguesmokes9379 “I’m the type of person, if you ask me a question and I don’t know the answer then I will tell you I don’t know. But I bet you, I know how to find the answer”
If someone said something like this while I was interviewing them, I'd definitely view it as a strong statement. 1) It shows that you aren't afraid to admit that you're wrong or that you "don't know." You don't know how difficult it is for most people to do that. It shows that you possess humility and self-awareness. 2) Knowing a bunch of answers doesn't prove much. With enough experience or training anyone can "know" a lot about something. But experience and training can't teach you to be a CRITICAL THINKER. The smartest person in the room isn't the one who knows everything; it's the person who knows how solve. People who are excellent critical thinkers create solutions to problems (and often in an efficient way). They are major assets in just about every situation in life, especially jobs. As a bonus... they are usually easy to train since critical thinkers are never incompetent morons.
@@keller109 Very helpful comment, thank you!
I did the same. Interviewers didn't know English 😭
Can we give some credit to the old guy who didn't just throw him out but asked questions like "have you ever seen him dressed like this?" I work in HR and I have seen so many people who just make snap judgments and don't even give people the chance to explain! Bravo!
I know this is just a movie, but maybe that's what separates a successful company from an unsuccessful one? If they are looking for subjective qualities then they will surely find them lol.
@@Diabetic_Chicken69 ruclips.net/video/EdtbzBZ59cA/видео.html
ruclips.net/video/EdtbzBZ59cA/видео.html
yes, definitely.
its an old worn out saying "don't judge a book by its cover", but it is some foundational wisdom.
i can't tell you how many times i've been browsing Twitch and i judged them prematurely.
however when i stuck around and gave them a chance, i discovered some really amazing and talented people.
then again... the opposite has happened as well, i stuck around, and discovered there were some
qualities about that person, that really put me off.
and then sometimes you may even realize you were right about them from the beginning. lol
i think some of the best advice you can ever give a person, and sometimes difficult to teach,
is to be slow in judgement. i imagine with HR, you must learn this well.
This is a big reason why so many companies are so poorly managed. Managers don't know how to be human anymore.
His story didn't demonstrate earnestness, diligence, or team playing...but it did demonstrate honesty and resilience.
Honesty is not a good trait for a stock broker though.

I made 55 application to enter in Paramedic school.... took me 5 year of working in mcdonalds and gas station but i knew what i wanted to do. Last year i got accepted.... and now im rocking a 94 % average in all classes (i miss sleeping tho XD). No matter how much try you make, you only need 1 to win. Dont give up!
thanks for the motivation bro, keep going 💪🏼👍
You'll make it, someone that knows the struggle will appreciate that opportunity more than anyone else. Went to school for xray and didnt sleep a single Tuesday each semester because exams were on Wednesday. Never give up.
Love it man thank you
Keep working it.
I just want to throw this out there in case readers are looking for a decent job with low schooling for a good salary.
Radiation Therapist or an Ultrasound Tech. Both have a median pay after a few years of $70-80,000++.
Entry can be an internship in some places, a certificate program in some places or an associates from a community college at the maximum. First year pay is greater (nearly double) than a 2 year degree cost at a CC. Minimal to no student loan debt.
@@shannonp4037 xray tech here, let people known it takes 5 years school minumum with an unpaid intership in some states. Trade school will cost about 40 to 60 thousand for 2 years of school.
He really smacked this performance out the park

Get new material.
Interviewer: What would you say if a guy walked into the interview without his shirt on and I hired him?
Will Smith: Keep My Wife's Name out of your ******* Mouth

The desperation on his face is raw and that makes me respect him as an actor. He wasn't Will Smith here, he was Chris Gardner

Naw, most people just do the complaining part and none of the work that Chris did.
calm down there skipper
Will's wife's boyfriend really appreciates his girlfriend's husband for sticking up for her.
He should have smacked upper management like he smacked Chris Rock
This movie was so difficult to watch and one of the most satisfying in the end. I love the movie. Will Smith presented very well.
It was brilliantly directed. You feel all the stress and tension especially the scenes where things went horribly wrong, like the IRS emptying his bank account. Sleeping in the subway restroom
@MUFC I hate to burst your bubble, but they have been trying to incorporate soccer as a replacement to football and baseball and basketball 4 over 30 years actually over 45. I remember some guy named Pele came to Dallas in the mid-1970s and all the soy boys and all the woke people back then do made this big deal about him but it just never caught on. Soccer sucks it's stupid and boring. Football baseball basketball Motorcar Sports and Rodeo Honda sport of The Americans

To be quite honest I started using the quote about not knowing the answers but doing everything to know it. And it actually helped me big time. Being brutally honest with a potential manager can be extremely beneficial !

You know why you're here in March 2022.
Smith seemed like someone so genuine, full of heart bringing films like this to life.
It's a slap to the face to see he's nothing like that.
"I'm the type of person... if you as me a question and I don't know the answer, I'm gonna tell you that I don't know...
This made me pass a lot of job interviews tbh.
Because they don't know the difference between as and ask
Funnily enough, I interviewed with a company two years ago for a service technician role, and their whole attitude towards "owning up when you don't know an answer but striving to find one" was reversed. They would rather me have BS'd things to customers instead of doing the more honorable thing. I'm glad I didn't get that job.
@@GlitchManOmega but when you don't show up for work just for one day and gave them the best BS'd reason, they'd fire you for lying.
A lot of people have too much pride to say "I don't know" and start making shit up which becomes apparent. I notice this at work too much. 99% of time when a person doesn't know how to do a specific function they will never ask anyone what it is or how to do it because it puts them in an inferior position and compromises their status. There is courage in saying "I don't know" and "please show me".
So all y'all just plagiarized this movie dialogue to get jobs?
The bathroom scene is still my favorite of the whole. Surreal.
That scene fucks me up
It destroys me everytime.
I've cried multiple times seeing that !
Especially as this scene doesn‘t have any special effects, no great lyrics, no intense music. Just a man in a bathroom and a desperate face expression.

He's just a great actor. Ali was phenomenal. He had to play a legend.
yeah and this is one my fav movie.... sad that he didn't win an oscar
I absolutely agree. I think it is because Chris Gardner and him are built from a very similar fabric. Will Smith prides himself on his work ethics and Chris Gardner seems to be the epitome of self discipline and good work ethics. Learning Chris Gardners story and how he kept fighting for his dream under the worst circumstances gave Will goosebumps all the way to his neck I am sure! :p

This movie made me cry pretty hard as a grown ass man. Like the part when hes in the bathroom with his kid asleep and someone tries to get in the door, and Will Smith is crying and holding the door shut.
My biggest fear in life is poverty and ending up like one of those men holding signs on the curb.
Yeah that’s the scene that got me. I imagined that was me with my son
Me too bro 😥 the struggle is real sometimes.
Me too. I really needed the toilet, but Will Smith was hogging the bathroom, and holding the door shut!
Steve Jobs was also financially weak at the start but poverty only inspired him and never came in his way.I guess the biggest fear is not Lack of Money but lack of vision which leads to the former

Can't believe this guy smack Chris rock right after the interview
Getting rejection back to back don't know why ,this movie reminds me that never ever give up & I'll back when I got selected ,See you soon

But just this once. I hope it brings you good luck! The best of luck!
Look forward to the update
Hey man!
I was working an awesome job for about 2 years. Was hired even before graduation.
But, end of last year I started yearning to work overseas. So I started applying for any place across the ocean that fits my particular field. Big companies and even small companies. I was rejected a total of 32 times over 2 months, and this is me with a very powerful resume, showreel and 2 years experience at the most prestigious company in this industry in my country.
But I eventually landed a job that I absolutely loved. Im still in my home country and working remotely for this new job now, but the pay is 4 times more and the work is actually less.
Dont give up, keep going. But if you reach about 100 rejections, Id say maybe look at yourself to try and see if the problem is maybe from yourself.
"If it smells like sh!t everywhere you go, then maybe its time to look under your shoe"
scan 350 I agree, I have been getting first round interviews for an internship but never make it across, but this movie does inspire that we'll make it one day, good luck!
All the best man 🥂
You know why he stood out and his true intelligence shined? Honesty... pure honesty
Oh wow such a bold comment, so intriguing, very profound. Lol shut up.
not far off. i'm retired, but we used to love hiring folks like this. walking encyclopedias are great until their knowledge is obsolete--its the person who constantly learns that helps the company. the hire who is seeing what the company can do to make his resume look good? she thinks she's hiding it, but we all know. My boss hated hearing "I don't know" but what saved my own ass was he knew I was going to find out--right now.
I can't tell you how many times i ask a question at a company i'm shopping at, the employee has no answer...and isn't interested in going to find out. Do they really think no one will ever ask that question again? I always found the answer when i was the employee asked, as much to help the customer as it was to become the smartest dude in the room (not being arrogant, I just get accused of it, even yesterday :) Not everyone is smart, but everyone CAN be knowledgeable and that can get you halfway to solutions).
hey we have the same profile picture but im an S!
It didn't seem honest when claimed he would always be able to find out the answers to his boss's questions.
Talented as hell. He should have won the Oscar years ago, but that doesn’t matter anymore because of what he did.
I'm surprised he didn't slap the hell out of the boss

To anyone who sees this, it took me 18 years to get into the room for an interview. Nobody can set a time line to how much you have to go through. But at the end of the day, the question is very simple. How big is your will to win? It's not about how big the dog is in the fight, it's about how big the fight is in the dog.
18 years? how old were u 18?
When it started I was 18, when I reached that place I was 36.

Plenty of people have a larger "will to win" than you and don't win. That's a fact. The "will" is great, but luck and talent also count for a lot.
Notice how when he said he was arrested over parking tickets and the others laughed, Mr. Frohm did not laugh at all. He understood that Chris' situation was no laughing matter and by the looks if it, he felt genuinely sorry for him.

You know how it is..
People use their feelings before thinking
Don't ever think your resume or skill set isn't good enough for a job. It's not your job to disqualify yourself from the position you are applying for.
When it comes to an interview, character, brutal honesty, and clearly demonstrating a want to learn the job you are applying for go so, SO much farther than a resume in some cases.
Yeah
To be honest 90% of that is based on interviewer’s perspective. I’m studying mechanics not qualified ATM but grinding my ass off to find a job but they need a fucking experience. To get experience I need job and to get the job I need experience. It’s not that simple.

I think something that you're missing, is that back in this day (particularly in the time that this movie was portraying) you had to do free internships like this in order to even get just the experience.

@@Danqz97 Don't get me wrong I like shows and films that Will is acting in especially Princ from Bel Air, still one of my favorite tv shows. But objectively he isn't top actor he is good but not that impressive
@@harleydavidson5271 He’s as good as they get.
Great scene. Chris Gardner demonstrated several things in this interview: honesty, humility, a personable nature, sense of humor, ability to think on his feet, and some measure of intelligence. These are all universal qualities that point someone toward success.
This movie really slaps hard.
This scene slaps.
This one of the most underrated movies of all-time. Will Smith is truly awe-inspiring.
Not all great movies are not underrated
How is this movie underrated? It stayed in theaters way longer than most films, did great when it went to streaming service and has won many nominations. What's your definition of underrated?
its not underrated...
People really need to look up the definition of under-rated
This movie clip got over 8 million views it's clearly not underrated
I cried literally watching this Masterpiece 😫😭😭
Most successful people have, cuz they know what it takes.
Same
I'm certain if you did not cry at any point watching this film you are devoid of any emotion.
I wish i could hear the "really nice pants" line for the first time again. It literally gave me chills my first time hearing how smooth that line was
Thank God ...he dint slap the interviewers
HA HA HA HA
I think so many people miss the hidden story in this - how that he had to work so hard to get to a position that most kids from a wealthy upbringing would merely assume was coming to them.
He had to be truly exceptional just to get a break.
I completely agree
With the original comment
That was not the underlying story!! it was that even if the deck is stacked against you, if you put in the hard work, you will succeed. Your point of view creates a victim mentality that leads to failure.
@@chetthomas9995 and what if every child in a neighbourhood is born with the deck stacked against them from the start? Every parent has to struggle.
No matter how hard they work, they won't all succeed through sheer chance.
Is that fair?
Yes that’s not it all. Lol
Even rich kids won’t have this type of job just handed to them. People get rich and stay rich because they’re smart with their money. Hiring people who don’t show initiative and promise aren’t getting the job.
Chris had the drive to get the job, but it also helped that the people interviewing him were open minded enough to not dismiss him outright because of his appearance: more employers need to be open minded like that.
I was like this be'fore I know who can he:lp you out text he now. He can solve your problems:: don't waste your time here: you can get ex back.,
+:2:3:4:8:1:3:9:7:4:6:4:5:6 whatzzp him.,
Damn this scene really "slaps"
Probably one of the best, most honest line deliveries I've ever seen. I've seen this clip dozens of times, and it still makes me laugh.
Will Smith always nails his roles in movies so well...sometimes even if he plays in a movie that isn't necessarily note worthy you can always count on him to carry a huge burden on his shoulders to make that movie worth a watch...truly a inspirational actor in every sense.
@@miguelsyoutube6375 I was not suggesting that...I meant that in a general sense.
Ugh, and now look where we are after that insane outburst he had at Chris Rock... It sucks so much because he was truly one of my favorite actors, and always gave off the vibe that he would be a super laid back and humble person in real life like Tom Hanks, but guess I was dead wrong about that one! Still love his movies and acting, it just blows that no matter what I see him in now that the slap is always in the back of my mind, similar to watching a Kevin Spacey movie after that scandal broke. Just out of genuine curiosity, did that incident hurt your opinion of Will Smith as well?
@@tankmaster1018A slap doesn’t discredit his acting abilities lmao
@@gradystanley5812 Not at all. But also his acting abilities don't change the fact that in the back of my mind I will always be thinking about the slap to some degree when I see him on film. It's not gonna ruin the film or pull me out of the suspension of disbelief, but in the back of my mind I'll always be thinking "better not make him mad or he'll slap the shit outta ya!" Lmfao
Let your name, not your suit, speaks for you.
BTW, the interviewer kills it. NAILED IT. This was the most emotional yet realistic scene in the movie. CLASSIC
I was like this be'fore I know who can he:lp you out text he now. He can solve your problems:: don't waste your time here: you can get ex back.,
+:2:3:4:8:1:3:9:7:4:6:4:5:6 whatzzp him.,
I used the "don't know the answer" quote from this scene for my job interview today. And I got it .
29/08/2022
he smacked the shit out of this role.
When my son was born, I was not ready yet financially. This movie inspired me... I even cry so hard at some scenes . That's true story.
I dont know if will smith got an oscar for this movie but he nailed it. Superb acting.
Will Smith received a Best Actor nomination for this role, at the 2007 Academy Awards, but the Oscar went to Forest Whitaker, for "The Last King of Scotland".
@Alone Musk Forest Whitaker is Black lmaoo.
Hiya doing! Will Smith finally got the Oscar in 2022, but unfortunately he has disgraced himself with the infamous 'slap'.
When he walked outside at the end & just crying of joy pursuing the happiness clapping his hands. I was so glad relieved & happy. 1 of best performance by Will Smith. No doubt
He brought up the struggling and determined guy who we all pass thru in pursuit of a better life...cant take it from him regardless of his drama😁😁
how the mighty have fallen
This is not just a movie, this is a message, whether you can relate to it or not.
It's capitalist propaganda, whether you can resist it or not. My guess is you can't!
@@boknowsbaseball what makes it capitalist propaganda?
In my last few interviews I've had, this moment in the movie always comes to mind.
3:39 Backing out would be a slap to the face!
They deleted the scene where they talked about Jada.
Charisma and humor gets you very far in life.
That's only because people are stupid insects.
@@Montrovantis key, calm down Mr Vegeta
Too bad for people who are qualified but not great at socializing, tho...
Dad raised me by himself for 24 years now through thick and thin, never gave up on me or us. Saw this with him when it came out theatres and it was one of the few times I seen him cry. Love this movie man Smith without a doubt did a beautiful job
Job interviews are tough. This clearly shows that being yourself is sometimes the small thing that separates you from the other applicant
Luckily he didn't slap the interviewer 😂😂😜😜
Decades later and I still come here for motivation. Absolutely brilliant scene and movie ♥️
will smith conveys all the emotions of his character very well. This scene gives good motivation and gives an incentive to achieve your goals
what a hard hitting performance 🤣
This was a hair raising scene and it slaps out your emotions.
