## Description

Product Description French comedy drama charting an unusual friendship. Paul (François Cluzet), a rich aristocrat and habitual thrill-seeker, becomes quadriplegic after a paragliding accident. Alone in the world and unable to care for himself in even the most basic ways, Paul employs young Senegalese émigré Driss (Omar Sy) as his carer. Despite their very different backgrounds and outlooks on life, the two men quickly form a strong bond, teaching each other important life lessons about acceptance, respect and the true meaning of friendship in the process. desertcart.co.uk Review Driss (Omar Sy), a Senegalese man living in a Paris slum, applies for a job as caretaker to a wealthy quadriplegic, but all he wants is to get his paper stamped so he can get benefits. Despite his lack of qualifications, he lands the job because of his attitude: Philippe (François Cluzet), the quadriplegic, wants a caretaker who will look at him without pity. As Driss reluctantly learns to move, feed, and clean Philippe, the two men discover a blunt but vital humour that not only bridges the cultural and class divide between them, but gives Philippe a renewed joy in life. It's easy to see what made Untouchable such a massive success in France; the movie has the sweet sincerity and uplifting conclusion that make for a classic feel-good experience. The chemistry between the two leads is undeniable, and Sy--who won the French equivalent of the Oscar for his role--is a dynamic and charismatic performer, while Cluzet's understated performance conveys Philippe's frustrations. The movie doesn't dig too deeply into the struggles of life as a quadriplegic or the struggles of life among the inner-city poor, so when Untouchable ends it's not likely to leave a lasting impression, but that doesn't get in the way of its immediate charm and warmth. --Bret Fetzer

Review: Omar Sy - There should be no spoilers in this review. Having seen François Cluzet in some very good films, I was keen to see him in Untouchable, though I did have some reservations as to whether the film would live up to the hype - "THE WORLD'S No 1 AWARD WINNING COMEDY" etc, and also whether I would indeed, like the comedy portrayed in the film, comedy being the subjective thing that it is. As for the comedy, well yes I did find it very funny, though at the same time this is also a serious film with a serious story. The comedic aspect of the film is very realistic - it, is not slapstick or farce, it is intelligent and it is done with great talent from the actors and with great writing and directing. My interest in watching the film was initially because François Cluzot was in it. Cluzet was exceptional, but I was equally impressed (if not more so) by Omar Sy who gave a remarkable performance throughout. That would also be true of the supporting cast and everyone that worked on the film, as they seem to have done and excellent job. The film is based on a true story (you are informed as the film starts) and that certainly seems to add to the enjoyment of it. I would say that all aspects of the film are without fault, as it has great acting, writing, directing, costumes, music etc - and cinematography. There are some particularly amazing scenes for which the camera-work should have special praise. So did the film live up to the hype? Well for me it certainly did. This is one of the best films I have seen for some time. At the time of writing this review, there are thirteen reviewers on desertcart who have awarded it one star, so it obviously isn't for everyone. Most of the one star reviewers seem to be saying they didn't realise that this French film was in French and that they would have to read English subtitles. So perhaps this is not recommended viewing for anyone who dislikes subtitles, but even if you are put off by subtitles this might be the film to make you change your mind. So to sum up: an outstanding film, brilliant story, brilliantly told, brilliant acting (especially Omar Sy), some outstanding photography and just maybe a film that some subtitle haters might enjoy. On the DVD you get: Untouchable (1 hour 47 min). The film has embedded English Subtitles. Scene Selection Special Features (Deleted Scenes) Previews (Trailers for: The Artist, My Week With Marilyn, Silver Linings Playbook, Beautiful Creatures)
Review: Mon Dieu! Tres Bon! Magnifique! - I saw the trailer for this film and just knew, both, instantaneously and instinctively, it was an absolutely - must see! Prior to attending, I was not aware [or had overlooked] the fact it was a French, subtitled film but this did not deter me when being advised of the fact upon purchasing my ticket. From the outset, this was a film, a storyline, a sequence of events based upon fact, that simply captivated, enthralled and in which I became quickly immersed and totally absorbed. The car chase in the opening sequence set the adrenalin pumping and the pulse racing and was a unique introduction and perspective into the lives of the characters portrayed in the film, their motives, commitment, loyalty and eventual dedication to each other. This film, in my opinion, is the sensitive portrayal of a disabled, quadriplegic French billionaire who, in some respects, purely by chance encounters the guy from the 'wrong side of the tracks' who through various trials and tribulations eventually becomes his full-time, 24/7 carer and 'confidant'. It is a touching portrayal of the slowly developing association and relationship of implicit trust that evolves between the two lead characters, in addition to the various and respective challenges with which they are confronted and overcome. Contained in this film is the whole gamut of human emotions. It is an extremely touching, moving roller-coaster of a ride with drama, tragedy, excitement, a wonderful and delightful sense of humour, sadness, happiness, laughter, highs and lows, interspersed with tears of joy and tinged with tears of pain and heartache. I thoroughly enjoy films that portray and observe different aspects of life, the human condition and associated emotions so acutely, intensely and succinctly. While not wanting to disclose too much of the content, this is a film in which you cannot help but become 'involved', to share the pain, the heartache, the tears, the sadness, the surprises, the joy, the laughter and exuberance, of obstacles overcome and triumphs shared. I consider this film to be an absolute delight, a masterpiece, perhaps more appropriately a 'piece de resistance', a cinematic triumph. A more than capable, astutely competent and confident observation of the respective and starkly contrasting circumstances of two individuals whose lives become intertwined through associated events and which evolve into the relationship so eloquently conveyed and masterfully portrayed in 'Untouchable'. This is, undoubtedly, a film that warrants, deserves and justifies higher acclaim to a wider audience and if you possess one vestige, one ounce of single, solitary humanness, it is not a film to be overlooked or missed and can only hope I have done the justice it fully deserves in this review. A film to watch, a film to reflect, a film to contemplate, a film to share, a film for all its trials, triumphs and tribulations to thoroughly enjoy but above all a truly worthwhile, highly commendable film to savour and a film to remember a long while after the end credits have rolled, such is its stirring and on occasions, heart-rending impact, into the nature of people, their personalities, character traits and the challenges with which they are confronted and against all the odds, overcome. Merci beaucoup - Magnifique!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Totally entertaining Film
*by K***N on 21 February 2013*

I had seen this film at the Cinema and enjoyed it so much I wanted to buy it on DVD as soon as it was released with English subtitles. Phillipe, a severely disabled, exceedingly rich, cultured gentleman searching for a Carer, meets Driss, an ex-convict with family issues, who applies for the job in order to claim benefits. The unlikely combination of the two characters is handled in a humourous, yet sensitive way. The rest (as they say) is history, sit back and prepare to be entertained. A totally uplifting, enspiring film with a fantastic soundtrack (which I also bought). I would recommend this film to anyone who may appreciate a combination of a great story, mixed with humour and great music. Please don't be put off if you don't normally watch films with subtitles, the subtitles are just a back-up in this film, it is acted so beautifully, you don't need a command of French to understand the sentiment Enjoy!
