Intouchables is a 2011 French comedy-drama film directed by
Olivier Nakache and Eric Toledano. The film is the second biggest box office
hit in France; it is also my favorite comedy. I regard myself as a person who always
laughs out loud. But before I watched this movie, I didn’t think that I would
laugh during the movie because the main character, Philippe, is a challenged
person. However, what Philippe and his personal assistant, Driss, did to the police was beyond my expectation and was amazing
It is a story about a man, Driss, who only wants to get the subvention of unemployment. But
things were not going as he
expected,
in one of his interviews; the boss, Philippe, admired him and gave him a well-paid
job. The job is to take care of Philippe who had no feelings except for his
head. The reason why Philippe chose Driss was that Driss thought of Philippe as a
real human, not a disability.I regard it as my favorite comedy because it is a tragedy in my first sight. However, Driss’s action in the movie is so crazy that I would never do it. Driss’s help was not only funny but also touching. I also bought the original novel. Hope that it would be as great as the film.
