The film is directed by Orivie Nacash.

I thought there would be no tears in this movie, but at the end when the song Ludovico Einaudi-Unamattina played, tears fell. The tune pushes the final emotion to a climax, and with the final picture, Philip and Dreis are smiling at each other through the glass of the dining room. Two people with very different educational levels, races, personalities, and habits have found their own happiness in life. Without Dreis, Philip was just that fiery, irritable Philip. When Dris appeared again in the dark with his white teeth, as if the two had the same mind, Philip also appeared behind the floor-to-ceiling windows. Dries is not the person who understands Philip the most, but he is the person who can liberate Philip the most. I think that Philip, when he was with Dreis, can lighten the burden of his disabled person, so he is happy and tolerates this problem teenager who destroys the atmosphere of the musical and does not understand art, and gives tolerance. This tall black man spreads paint in Philip's monotonous life, dyeing his gray life tones into brilliant colors.

After watching the movie, I still don't understand why the movie is called "Intouchables". Mindrays was influenced by Philip, through which he was exposed to oil painting, classical music and skydiving, which he was afraid to try. Philip broke his elegant life because of Dreis. He followed Dreis to speeding, cheating the traffic police, smoking, and meeting with a female pen pal in Dunkirk who had not seen each other for six months. They have obviously come into contact with each other's life, although they can't achieve resonance in art, but in terms of life interests, try to contact each other as much as possible, and they have brought an indelible impact on each other, why is it still Intouchables?

After Shu Niu's advice, I reconsider why it is called Intouchables. It is because of their first Intouchables that their friendship is precious. An elderly white rich man who loves extreme sports and is influenced by classical music and oil painting. I like literary poetry, and my life is exquisite and regular. A young black man with a criminal record, a dispute with his family, and living on unemployment benefits. He loves pop music, has an unrestrained life, and has a straightforward personality. What makes him different from the black people around him is that he seems to live more clearly and a little more humanly. The status of two people is out of reach, intouchables. But they can still be great friends in life and live out their own truths. There are no polite words, there is no identity distance between the owner and the nanny, they are just friends without modification.

There is another intouchables, that is, in the minds of others, their relationship is intouchables by others, irreplaceable. At the end, when Philip was in bad condition, Yvonne thought of finding Dreis, she knew that Dreis was different. The relationship between him and Philip is unmatched by others.

In the beginning, they were untouchable in the eyes of others. This is my understanding. Also, the soundtrack for this movie is really amazing and fits the movie perfectly. The right music can make a film better, conveying the emotions the director wants and the plot expresses. Reminds me of Guillermo del Toro's "Water Story", the soundtrack of this movie is also excellent ❤️❤️

    Elegant comedy, black and white respectively represent two special groups isolated by French society. They ridicule each other, using the ridicule of French society to lead the audience to identify with the role; they support each other, integrate and reintegrate into society. Through the end of the film, we learned that the prototype is white, and the change to black in the film is that one can play a casual treatment of the role; the other is the desire for the third and fourth generation of African-American French to integrate into society.

    The second best movie I watched this year. In the vast sea of ​​people, two completely different people met, you changed me, I changed you, and the people who met will meet again. Regarding the gap between the rich and the poor, juvenile delinquency, and racial discrimination, although they are not explicitly stated, they are secretly mapped to highlight their roles. The rich are rich but disabled and unhappy, while the blacks are poor but have a kind and optimistic heart. ps: Ludovico Einaudi's soundtrack is a plus!
