Christopher

Christopher is a character portrayed by Jaden Smith in the film The Pursuit of Happyness.

Character
Christopher has been hanging on by threads to his five-year-old dignity and hope. But though he wants badly to trust his father, to believe that their current homelessness is just temporary, it's getting harder by the day. And then one afternoon while running for the bus, he drops his favorite toy. Dad won't let him stop or go back. Christopher doesn’t make a fuss, but his smooshed up little face reveals his despair. The shot cuts to Captain America on the pavement, receding into smallness as the bus pulls away.
