A film with romanticism and humanity

This is a film with a romantic and humanistic atmosphere, which is very characteristic of French movies. The protagonist of the story, De Hiss, is a poor black man. An accidental experience allowed him to get the position of full-time escort by the rich Philip. So he came to a new place from the home he was driven out and saw the life of the rich. He not only cared Philip very well, but also took Philip to experience many unprecedented things, which gradually changed Philip's life. He encouraged Philip to meet his pen pals time and time again, and he was thinking hard about the meaning of his life. Gradually he and Philip became best friends. Although Philip thought that he had to take care of himself and eventually let him go, he still showed up when Philip needed it most and gave him the best gift-and pen pal. For the first time in person.
I think the story is very human. The music of the movie is good, but the director's shooting method is also flashback first. De Hiss is a very special character. Although he has been in jail, he understands some of the most basic codes of conduct and has a strong contagious effect on others. He does not feel that what he has done is bad, and he does Abandoning the vassal elegance of the rich and the so-called upper class, showing his own understanding of life, and at the same time he is not afraid of Philip, it is his characteristics that have changed everything. If you want to love, love, what kind of platonic love, is really a bit nonsense.
I think the reason Philip ran away before the first date was that he was not confident yet, because he did not send the picture of himself in a wheelchair, and he was still worried. I guess De Hess must have sent it to his pen pal after he got the picture, and then deliberately arranged for them to meet. If De Hess hadn't forced them, maybe Philip would really be alone all his life. He is probably the only one who really understands Philip.
These are two people who have no intersection in hobbies, personalities, or even the whole world. Just because of the respect of human nature and those slightly evil smiles, it is enough to achieve an inseparable friendship. After watching it, I realized the meaning of the title. Most of the things that can be touched in reality are those that are selfish, boastful, and utilitarian... And that kind of hard-to-reach sincerity, I will continue to be faithful.
In fact, too much contact is not necessarily the worst reason. The key is the motivation for contact. When you don’t want to get
anything from him (including driving away loneliness), but you are still willing to keep in touch with him, then you should be a real friend~
Confidentiality, not only he knows you, or only you know him, but knows each other. You don’t have to be afraid of saying something wrong and hurt each other during conversations, but to know what the other person really needs. You have to be so confidant in life. Come on!
This is a very pure movie, and it is also very simple: pure friendship. But the beauty of the movie is that the story is moving, the feelings are sincere, and it is not overly or artificial. Every little detail, every little smile, is so pure and clean and natural, but it really makes people laugh. For example, the scene where the black male protagonist Driss pursues the female secretary Magalie tirelessly, but finally finds that she is a lesbian, is really uncontrollable. But even so, when he saw Driss walk out of the door of Phillips house, politely ask people to drive away, educate his "brother" as the principle of life, and walk back to his destined life, he still couldn't help his eyes moist. This is friendship. Driss may be making friends with Phillip for money in the first place, but when he has completed his mission, but still keeps his principles of being a friend in mind, this is no longer driven by interests, but really Friendship made him change.
It has to be said that the soundtrack of the movie, a large number of piano music is elegant but full of sentiment, a little bit of heartstrings, and finally reached a climax at the seaside restaurant appointment arranged by Driss for Phillip. Photography is just as beautiful. The aerial shots and music combine to present the beautiful scenery of France on the screen, which is fascinating. Coupled with this rock-solid friendship, who will not be moved by it?
I think everyone has at least one close friend. You and him met at a turning point in life, marveling at the differences or similarities between each other. There have been many ordinary but memorable times. He will compare his heart to heart and grieve for you. Crank your wrist, for your joyous festival, will leave you with such an eternal place in his heart, let Baiyun Canggu, the situation changes. Only sigh in this life, destined to meet you.
I have to admit that Driss is a very confident and contagious man. At the beginning of the film, during the interview, the little bastard Driss compares all the other candidates.
Take a look at how those "intellectuals" with various diplomas returned to Marguerite's question: stammering, looking. This unintentionally blurted idiom used Philip, like Driss said, a bit too much, but it's a pun.
There is more than one joyful dialogue in the gallery. When "Mrs. Simpson" talked about the price of the painting, Driss, who was born in the market, said in surprise: "You better check." Then, when the female clerk said with apologetic expression: "I made a mistake...actually more expensive", seeing Driss's triumphant expression instantly freezes, which makes people laugh. There are also those few sentences, "A person who has a pool of nosebleeds on the canvas will cost xxxx Euros?" "If you give me 50 Euros, I can give you a similar painting, and I can also get some blue as a reward. "For me who don't understand art, driss really said that I was gone. Whee.
The end of the driss application period echoes the beginning of the film. Remember how Driss played word games and brought the topic to music? But at that time he just wanted an autograph to receive unemployment benefits. Now he really wants to find a job, but that can't stop his unlimited humor. Goya, the painter, became a female singer when he reached the driss mouth, and "there is nothing after pandipanda (song title)." He can really talk. Of course, at this time, Driss also had a certain understanding of art under the influence of Philip. At a glance, I can tell that the painting is Dali's "Eternal Memory", and he is very expert in calling the table in the painting a mole. What else is Alexander...driss, you are much better than me.
I think this movie has the deepest impact on me, first is the countless humorous dialogues of driss, and then the warm scenes. Many should have the same feelings as me, so I watched the whole movie crying and laughing.
