When a movie is based on a true story, if you ask us, that means that it has to be at least good since if the story that it is based on is not good, they wouldn't have made the movie in the first place.
Taking about The Intouchables, we have to mention that it is a movie that you will definitely remember after watching it for the first time. It is powerful, unexpected, touching, great, it is a masterpiece.
It doesn't matter if you have all the money in the world when you can't feel anything below your neck. That is what happened to quadriplegic Philippe played by Francois Cluzet. Driss is played by Omar Sy and he is the one who gets hired to help him go through life as easy as possible. Not only that he laughs all the time, but he learns a lot from him and the fact that they are completely different makes this movie even more fun to watch.
These two are a perfect match and it all happened totally unexpected. Briss came just to get a signature from Philippe in order to prove the social security workers that he is looking for a job. He is rude and he is an African in Paris, that is not something that you can see that often.
After the trial period of one month, Briss gets the job that he didn't even want, but it turns out that it is the job of his life.
