The Pursuit of Happyness (July 31)
Based on the book of the same name, The Pursuit of Happyness is the true story of author Christopher Gardner’s rags-to-riches saga. Tired of Chris’ failed professional career, his wife leaves him as a financially broke unpaid intern while he simultaneously takes custody of their son. The movie stars Will Smith and his real-life son, Jaden Smith, as the on-screen father-son duo. The movie is a heartwrenching tearjerker which makes the eventual happy ending all the more satisfying. It received a total of 26 nominations and won 12 of them.
Stepmom (July 31)
Directed by Chris Columbus and starring Julia Roberts, Susan Sarandon, and Ed Harris, this tear-jerker is the story of a terminally-ill woman who must deal with her ex-husband’s new lover, who will be their children’s stepmother. Jackie (Susan Sarandon) loathes Luke’s (Ed Harris) new wife Isabel (Julia Roberts) but things change when Jackie gets diagnosed with cancer. The actors’ earnest performance brings out the complexities in their characters, making it a brilliant movie.
