The Intouchables five comedy hearts
/Thought this would be a dreary Foreign Film about a quadriplegic, sad and moving as only a true story can be. It was nothing of the sort and now one of my favourite films of all time. Starring the dishy Francois Cluzet, the delicious Omar Sy and the gorgeous Anne Le Ny it's a must see movie for everyone. My kids all loved it too!
Cluzet is a ridiculously rich disabled man who cannot keep personal carers. Moody and demanding, his head is turned by the irreverent Sy who merely wishes to sign off on his dole check. The ensuing relationship is at first doomed to failure but surprisingly enduring and results in a close bond that is beneficial to both men.
Screamingly funny, Sy is a deilght as a Parisian Ghetto boy done good who has a soft heart for his charge. Cluzet was deeply depressed, but the fun-loving carer soon brings out in him a great desire to live and live well despite his infirmity. You must see it!
