Manohla Dargis called the movie The Pursuit of Happyness "the same old bootstraps story, an American Dream artfully told, skillfully sold. How you respond to this man’s moving story may depend on whether you find Mr. Smith’s and his son’s performances so overwhelmingly winning that you buy the idea that poverty is a function of bad luck and bad choices, and success the result of heroic toil and dreams." What idea is being expressed here?
a. The American Dream is an ideology.
b. America is a largely class-free society.
c. Poverty is absolute, not relative.
d. Most Americans will inherit their parents’ class status.
