The Intouchables

The true story of a wealthy, physically disabled risk taker, the picture of established French nobility, who lost his wife in an accident and whose world is turned upside down when he hires a young, good-humored, black Muslim ex-con as his caretaker. Their bond proves the power and omniscience that love and friendship can hold over all social and economic differences.

June 1, 2012 - Boston.com - By Wesley Morris, Globe Staff

The second biggest hit in all of French filmdom tells the story of a ritzy white quadriplegic (Francois Cluzet) who hires a bald, Senegalese-born thug (Omar Sy) to take care of him. It’s called “The Intouchables,” and in France it’s made almost everybody feel good about ebony-ivory relations. The aristocrat’s name is Philippe. The thug’s name is Driss, and he can be counted on to laugh at the costumes at the opera, turn his nose up at exotic foods, and use his street smarts and big mouth to exasperate the rich and cultured.
