"Untouchable - You are my second breath"

"The Intouchables" is a great movie, I sincerely sighed after watching it.

The New York Times commented: The experience of watching the movie can be summed up in nine words: "You will laugh, you will cry, and you will like it."

I completely agree with these nine words. precise summary.

"The Intouchables" is a French comedy film, also translated as "Second Breath". This movie is clean and pure, and there are also some heart-wrenching scenes in the light-hearted and humorous moments. Here, I just want to capture the friendship scenes between the two male protagonists, Philip and Driss.

Perhaps good movies or stories that touch people's hearts often do this: they make the audience laugh in many small details, and they can also make people burst into tears in the next second.

The film is adapted from a true story. Philip, a wealthy white man, was paralyzed in bed after a skydiving accident and wanted to hire a full-time escort. Driss, a black man, has just been released from prison and is burdened with family burdens. He just wants a certificate to apply for relief funds. Starting from the title of the film, Philippe and Darius have completely different life trajectories. No matter in terms of identity or status, the two are like two parallel lines that will never intersect. The condition of the rich man Philip to recruit a private caregiver provided an opportunity for the two to meet. Two completely different worlds collided and merged with each other, and thus began an incredible and wonderful friendship story between them.

At the end of the film, perhaps the audience will suddenly realize that being out of reach is not really out of reach. It is actually an irony, because everyone has been "touched" and the distance of so-called fraternity has been narrowed.

Philip’s job of recruiting private caregivers pays well, and talented people from all walks of life are eager to try it. Among the many polite applicants, Philip chose Driss, who only wanted a relief fund. It's hard to say whether Philip was out of kind compassion or a discerning eye who took a fancy to Driss's boldness and forthrightness. Driss's subsequent performance proved that Philip was right, and Driss was indeed the best partner.

The camera slowly extends, and while Driss is enjoying the luxury and comfort of the working environment, he is tirelessly pursuing Philip's female secretary, and at the same time facing various challenges at work.

At first, Driss refused to give Philip a massage to recover his health, refused to bathe him, give him enemas, wear stockings, etc., and even sprinkled scalding boiling water on Philip's thighs for fun. Maybe it was Philip's initial "I'm sure you can't do it for a week", or maybe it was Darius realizing that Philip really couldn't take care of himself, and after getting familiar with and understanding him slowly, Darris took this job seriously. .

Driss and Philippe slowly entered each other's world.

Dress taught Philip to smoke, took him to race cars, taught his daughter in a tough way, took him to play in the snow, and directly handed the phone to Philip when making a call.

"He always forgets the fact that I am paralyzed. What I want is this kind of person, no mercy, no special treatment and no discrimination."

I have to admit that Driss is a The tactful respect added infinite fun to Philip's ordinary life.

Philip brought Driss to art paintings, concerts, luxury restaurants, luxury bathrooms...

What Driss was still laughing at two seconds before he learned about it When an art painting with "a few drops of blood sprinkled on a piece of white cloth" cost 41,500 euros, I was so surprised that I almost dropped my jaw. This also inspired Derris to concentrate on painting, and slowly got rid of his lack of ambition.

The mutual influence between Philip and Driss is completed in a subtle way.

At the beginning of the film, Driss walked to the door of Philip's house and rudely accused and warned the driver not to park the car at a private door; at the end of the film, he politely asked people to move the car. Go and teach your brother that this is the "principle of life." The contrast between before and after is striking.

"I am your hands and feet, there is no objection to this, right?"

In dealing with the issue of his younger brother, Driss left Philippe. During this year , Philip just lost his hands and feet and grew old quickly.

After Driss, a new private caregiver took office, but it was far from satisfactory to Philip. Are the caregivers not professional and competent enough?

The answer is undoubtedly no.

The reason is simply that Philip is used to the company of Driss, the kind of life of living with dignity.

The ups and downs of a movie plot can naturally add fuel to the flames, and a good ending can also push emotions to a climax.

With the return of Driss, the camera showed a close-up of Driss shaving Philip. Driss’s well-timed jokes made Philip laugh. I believe the audience must also laugh at this.

The last thing Darius did was to help Philip win the beauty back, and Darius finally achieved something.

Just imagine, if Philip had not met Driss at that time, and Driss had not happened to meet Philip, one might have been bound to a wheelchair for his whole life, and the other might still be praying for government relief funds.

Perhaps the deformed lives of two people cannot be interpreted so perfectly.

"I think everyone has at least one close friend. You meet him at a turning point in your life and marvel at each other's differences or similarities." , there have been many unremarkable but memorable times, no matter how bad the situation is, "

To Driss, he is such a close friend.
