And The Pursuit of Happiness (Louis Malle)



How things change? This movie was made in the mid 80's, I believe and is still valid today as it was then.

A couple of questions it left me with.

Is slavery still what the wealth of the world is based on. As each country deals with immigration. What price do people have to pay for the pursuit of that happiness.

This documentary intelligently gives us a birds eye view the pursuit of the American Dream as far as it goes for immigrants.

How different cultures mix or do not.

It merely serves this up to us and allows the viewer to make there own opinion.

A fascinating look at just how vast the gap between rich and poor is. Yet again!
