About this movie

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.

Ratings and reviews

I really want to see this unmissable feature film...alas it keeps saying video format not supported I'm using a galaxy s8 I've got super fast fibre...not sure what the issue is...can I just get a refund and I'll pay Amazon?

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.

I loved this film from start to finish. It's based on a true story about a friendship between two men from completely different world's. Brilliant acting, funny and moving. Would highly recommend to anyone.
