I agree. However, the Pursuit of Happyness is based on the best-selling true life memoir of Chris Gardner. (I think that's the correct name).

So, if the movie is based off the book- then why didn't they say BASED on a true story?

Since they said, Inspired by a true story, does this mean they altered a great deal from the book to the movie?
