A little backstory 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.

i don’t care how many times i reblog this. 

^^^ I reblog it every time I see it

This is the first time I saw this (even though I constantly watched prince of bel’air when i was younger). This is heartbreaking :C

Woah.

For the longest time I have been through the exact same thing. 17 years, actually. My dad wasn’t around for anything and I can really relate to what Will is saying. It’s really heartbreaking and it hits hard. I actually went without talking to my father for 2 years at one time. It was one of the most difficult things I had to do. He wasn’t around for any of my firsts.

When my mother died, that’s when my dad stepped up. At first I was scared shitless because I didn’t know what to expect. I thought he was just going to leave me all over again. I would be lying if I said that feeling is still there, but he’s actually trying.

My dad walked me down the isle on my wedding day. My dad has helped me out so much since last July. Right now, my dad is my greatest ally.

I just don’t know how long this is going to last.

But this scene is heartbreaking. Will did a fantastic job. Fresh Prince was one of the only shows I watched with my mother when I was growing up. I could relate so much to it.
