If you loved Seven Pounds, try The Pursuit of Happyness

What The Pursuit of Happyness is
San Francisco streets, winter rain, a portable bone density scanner. A single father and his young son share a bus station bathroom, a small suitcase between them. This biographical drama lands best on a cold winter morning.
