The Intouchables (9.0/10)

This 2011 French film, starring Omar Sy and François Cluzet, is based on a true story—and it shows in the depth of emotion it delivers. It is a classic "feel-all-the-emotions" type of movie. I was thoroughly pleased with everything: the storyline, the character development, the acting, the beginning, the ending—every part of it just worked. It’s heartfelt, funny, and moving in all the right ways. This is worth a watch but it is all in French so expect subtitles. "A Parisian aristocrat, quadriplegic since a paragliding accident, hires a young man to be his live-in caretaker. Although very different the two men bond and develop a close friendship."
