This is truly amazing. Will Smith, you are truly amazing <3 This made me cry.
A little back story to this clip before you watch it:
Will Smith’s father abandoned him and his mother when he was a child, and when Will was finally getting into show business and making a name for himself, he tried to sneak his way back into his life like nothing happened. Will co-wrote this episode, and James Avery (Uncle Phil) said, “This scene was the hardest thing I’ve ever had to shoot in my life. Every emotion, every word.. that was Will.”
Will was actually supposed to play it off and then walk away, and there was originally an alternate scene that was supposed to happen, but he actually completely cut out what was supposed to be said, and did all of his own dialogue. The hug at the end of this scene is completely genuine, and this was a stepping stone in Will’s career where he started to take on the “Do what feels, sounds, and looks right.” approach to his acting.
:’c
always reblog.
Best scene ever, Will Smith is the kind of actor that is quite unique and can do comedy and drama very good.

I love you, in no particular order - ♥
Jessica cross, Soraia Khosti, Stephanie Apland, Megan Larson, Katrina Barrett, Tyann Amundsen - y’all are the best, and I don’t need anyone else :D
muaahh.
One thing I chose to give up was CHASING PEOPLE. I’m sick and tired of always having to be the only damn person to say hi first. I shouldn’t have to chase down someone I care about to get them to talk to me, or see me. How cool are you? Maybe it’s time to just admit you used me the whole time, and the years we were friends don’t mean shit to you now. Peace buddy.
I wish I could be as happy as I used to be, but I guess it’s going to take me awhile to get back to that place again. The past couple years all I’ve dealt with is let down, loss, being rejected, being lied to, it goes on and on…
I’m just sick of it. I need a fresh start. But everytime I do that, I just make the same, stupid choices. I’m messed up, but nobody can really fix that for me, only I can. Hopefully when me and my dad move together alone everything will start to look up. I can’t stand being in my house anymore, and I don’t know why. I’m always gone, going out and doing stupid things. My relationships with my best friends arent what they were before, and I wish it would just go back to normal. I don’t even really talk to anyone about how I feel anymore, but it just seems they think I’m complaining. But maybe what I really need is a therapist, maybe it’s best?
I really hope I get out of this funk, and soon..
I love you PJS <3 4.06.05, gone seven years now, yet it still hurts the same as the first day. I love you forever and always.. what I would do to have you back in my arms mommy, then everything would be a dream come true, and more ♥
