true friend

A lot of times, life can get frustrating. Some come from external constraints, such as constraints and limited conditions, while others are obstacles set by oneself, such as pessimism and self-defeating. As a result, you are stuck in a certain predicament, sullen or complaining. After all, in the face of high-ranking paralysis and the loss of a lover, it is difficult for anyone to let go. It is not so much that Phillipe is recruiting a full-time escort, but rather that he is looking for a close friend who can communicate and share spiritually. Later, he found it, and that was Driss. The embarrassment of life can make people hungry and clothed, but it cannot deprive a person of optimism and cheerfulness. Maybe you have been attracted by Bole when you didn't even realize that you have any advantages. Driss has the mentality of collecting three job-seeking experiences to get unemployment benefits, but he does not want to be selected by the rich Phillipe to stand out from those who hold a high degree of education. Driss, smoking, lustful, arrogant, and not doing the right thing. Seems to be an extremely unreliable person. But once trust was given to him, he did not let others down. It can be said that Phillipe and Driss, just like the title of the film, these two people who have no intersection, two people who seem to be out of touch, can become each other's lifelong confidants and establish a friendship that transcends materiality. is the most precious. The film finally returns to the scene after the two people raced to get rid of the police. During the days when Driss was gone, Phillipe grew a beard and looked a lot haggard. Maybe it's because he didn't have this humorous old friend to give him spiritual support, the fun of appreciating works of art together, the chatting and laughing of watching dramas together, the excitement of racing cars together, and so on. I think that's why at the end of the film Driss shaves Phillipe with a beard of various shapes. The two are intimate and seem to be back in time, and Phillipe is more youthful and alive after shaving. In the end, Driss gave Phillipe a surprise, consummated his love and marriage again, and then left silently. Seeing this is where I am most moved, friendship has no boundaries, no matter you are rich or poor, strong or weak, white or black, where there is love, there is friendship. "Sometimes I laugh, sometimes I cry, what is there in life." This is the evaluation of this film by a French media. When we enjoyed the fun brought by the humorous dialogue in the film, we were moved by it from beginning to end, which made people feel heartbroken. Make waves and feel the beauty in life.
