English Summary:

Seven Pounds is a 2008 American drama film, directed by Gabriele Muccino, in which Will Smith stars as a man who sets out to change the lives of seven people. Rosario Dawson, Woody Harrelson, and Barry Pepper also star.

The protagonist of the film dials 911 to report his own suicide by a boxed jellyfish. He then narrates how God created the world in seven days, and how he managed to destroy his own in seven seconds. The introduction of the film establishes that the protagonist intends on helping seven people of his own choice. The reason at this point remains unknown. For most encounters, the protagonist poses as an IRS agent to establish a sense of initial trust.

Ezra Turner

At home, the protagonist now known as Ben Thomas (Will Smith) phones a meat delivery company to complain about his order and is put through to Ezra Turner (Woody Harrelson). During the phone call, Ezra is revealed to be a vegetarian as well as blind in both eyes, prompting Ben to viciously humiliate and taunt Ezra, as well as goading him into retaliating. Ezra however calmly thanks Ben for his call and disconnects.

Emily Posa

Ben then travels to a hospital to meet Emily Posa (Rosario Dawson), who has a congenital heart condition which is complicated by her rare blood type, therefore limiting donor viability. Despite being turned away from the hospital staff, Ben watches Emily sleep later that evening but leaves as she wakes during the night.

Ben arrives at a care home for the elderly to meet with Stewart Goodman (Tim Kelleher), an administrator who brags that he was able to cut expenditure at the home by 17%, but also wishes that his own finances could be as equally impressive. Ben notices Stewart's brand new BMW out front despite Stewart's claim that he is insolvent. Despite this, Stewart pleads for a 6 month extension so that he can pay with his bonus in January, and Ben leaves with the matter unresolved. On his way out Ben talks to Inez, an elderly resident whom Stewart was attempting to talk to earlier but was unsuccessful in doing so.

 

Hungarian Summary:

Ben egy sötét titkot rejteget, amelytől nem tud szabadulni: régi bűne emléke kínozza. Elhatározza, hogy ha a saját élete már megváltoztathatatlanul tönkre ment is, legalább másokén segít. Kiszemel hét ismeretlent, akik sem egymás, sem az ő létezéséről nem tudnak - viszont mind rászorulnak a segítségre. Ben nyomoz utánuk, pontosan feltérképezi az életüket, majd közbeavatkozik. Igyekszik a homályban maradni, ám mindent elkövet, hogy jóra fordítsa az addigi rosszat. De nincs tökéletes terv - mindig, minden számításba hiba csúszhat. A hiba ezúttal egy gyönyörű, szívbeteg nő képében jelentkezik. Miután vele találkozik már egészen új elképzelések vezetik a férfit...

 

 

Cast / Szereplők:

 

Will Smith as Ben Thomas (actually Tim Thomas, using his brother's name)

Smith described the reason he took on the role:

Usually with the films that I make there are ideas that I connect to, but lately I've been dealing with the bittersweet in life because it feels more natural. You don't ever get it really the way you want in life. That really fascinates me. As an actor, there are certain parts of a character that you create, and you train yourself to have those reactions and then it becomes hard to stop them when the role is over. You have to retrain yourself. My character in this film is like hot grits. You know you can't shake them off and when you do, it hurts.


Smith felt that the character needed to be a quiet and rather introverted person who does not burn himself out at every possible instance. The character was a contrast to Smith's previous characters, and Smith felt that director Gabriele Muccino's trust in him helped him relax and avoid overextending himself. Smith acknowledged Seven Pounds as a drama film, but he saw it as more of a love story.
Michael Ealy as Ben Thomas, Tim's brother and an IRS agent, whose credentials and name are "taken" by his brother.

Will Smith handpicked Ealy for the role of the main character's brother. Connor Cruise, the adopted son of actor Tom Cruise and actress Nicole Kidman, was cast in his first role as a younger version of Ben Thomas.
