Sneaky cameos always make a movie highly exciting. Especially when in the movie inspired by true events, the “real-” and “reel-life” protagonist are caught in the same frame. The movie, In Pursuit of Happiness, revolves around the struggle of a single father in San Francisco to make ends meet for him and his son to meet. While the larger part of the movie showcases Garner’s ordeals, the closing scene finally brings good news in the form of a new job. The movie’s ending gets a poetic dimension when the on-screen Chris Gardener, played by Will Smith and his son, Jaden, walk by on the streets and the actual Chris Gardner on whom the movie is based walks past them.

Remember the heartbreaking scene when Bruce, the shark, said that he never knew his father on hearing Marlin speak about Nemo? This points to the fact that male sharks mate with female sharks and then leave. Thus, baby sharks actually never get to know their father.
