Over deze film

An irreverent, uplifting comedy about friendship, trust and human possibility, UNTOUCHABLE has broken box office records in its native France and across Europe. Based on a true story of friendship between a handicapped millionaire (Francois Cluzet) and his street smart ex-con caretaker (Omar Sy), UNTOUCHABLE depicts an unlikely camaraderie rooted in honesty and humour between two individuals who, on the surface, would seem to have nothing in common. Directed by Eric Toledano and Olivier Nakache, the film was nominated for a total of nine 2012 César Awards, France's equivalent to the Oscars, including Best Picture, and won Best Actor for breakout star Omar Sy. The film also won the Grand Prize at the 2011 Tokyo International Film Festival. UNTOUCHABLE has received Audience Awards from U.S. film festivals including the San Francisco Film Festival, COL COA, and the Nashville Film Festival.

A touching adaptation of a true story about the life long friendship between two people thrown together by chance. You'll laugh, cry, cry with laughter and restore your faith in humanity. This movie is a must watch and no other 'remakes' could ever come close to this. Outstanding performances from Omar Sy and François Cluzet.

This made me laugh out loud, smile like a cheshire cat, cry (with laughter & emotion). Outstanding performance by Omar Sy and all the cast. Soundtrack is cracking. A wonderful movie - Thank you.

Truly a beautiful film, the kind you don't forget, you tell everyone about. The music too, I couldn't recommend this film enough.
