Chapter 1503 What is truly untouchable is the human heart

Driss drove a Maserati to his mother's place of work and watched her mother go to and from get off work.

Philip called. He still didn't have the courage to meet Eleanor and was leaving early. He asked Driss to come out for some air.

As a result, Eleanor passed by her naturally.

Philip took Driss on his private plane, and on the plane, he gave Driss the money from selling the paintings.

Driss was extremely surprised.

Philip encouraged him: "You should keep working hard, you are very talented!"

Driss didn't doubt that he was there, so he said excitedly: "I think it's okay? This thing is like instinct."

Then all kinds of nonsense made Phillip feel helpless.

There was a sudden vibration in the plane, and Driss was startled. Philip also scared him and said that the plane had just a hole.

Driss noticed that something was wrong with Philip, but Philip just said that it was a pleasure to know you!

Although Driss didn't think the joke was funny at all, Philip didn't say anything.

The two came to the skydiving place. Derris looked at the people floating in the air and complained: "Anyone who is willing to do this is definitely out of his mind!"

"More or less!" Philip said with a smile.

Philip asked Driss to experience it with him. Driss said he was unwilling, but in the end he had to bite the bullet.

Driss was really scared and yelled at first, but he quickly adapted and shouted: "It's so fun to ride on a horse!"

For him, this was definitely an unprecedented experience. After the skydiving, he and Philip returned to the mansion in the evening, only to find his brother came over.

Driss and Philip talked about his complicated family and his own life experience.

Philip believed that Driss should return to his family and shoulder his responsibilities. He felt that Driss could not stay with a disabled person for the rest of his life, so he chose to terminate the employment contract with Driss.

Driss said goodbye to Margery and was about to leave. When he walked out, the scene at the beginning of the movie appeared again, and many people came to interview again.

When he was going out, he encountered someone blocking his car again, but this time, Derris did not choose to solve the problem in a rough way. Instead, he told the person in a gentle and friendly manner that parking was not allowed here.

Driss started his new life, and on the other side, a new caregiver also arrived. It was a pity that although the other carer was also very conscientious, he was full of sympathy and mercy. There was no one like Driss who could treat Philip as a human being. Treat like ordinary people.

Philip also became difficult to live with, he didn't even shave, and he had another side effect of "phantom limb pain" during the night!

A new caregiver came in, but he kicked him out.

Driss found a new job, and interestingly, it was because he was influenced by Philip that he was able to talk about paintings and art with the interviewer.

The housekeeper called him, and Driss came to Philip's house to ask what happened.

The housekeeper just said that Philip's condition was very bad. Driss came to the garden and saw his old friend Philip again.

The Philip at this moment was completely different from the Philip he had seen earlier.

Seeing Driss, Philip also seemed very happy, showing a long-lost smile.

Driss saw Philip's beard and asked him curiously what was going on? Are you going to play someone?

Immediately afterwards, the scene at the beginning of the movie appeared, in Los Angeles at night, Driss drove Philip in a Maserati.

Then he started driving wildly and was stopped by the police. Philip foamed at the mouth in tacit agreement and successfully deceived the police.

The same scene stayed after the police left.

Philip asked: "What happens next?"

Driss said: "Just leave it to me!"

Driss drove all the way out of the city, to the outer suburbs, and to the seaside.

He shaved half of Philip's already long beard, leaving Philip stunned.

But Driss thought it was very suitable, and then he changed the pattern and shaved Philip's beard into various shapes. After having enough fun, he shaved it clean.

Philip became the elegant and handsome Philip again.

Then he took Philip, who had redressed, to the restaurant, but he told Philip: "I won't eat here!"

Phillip was a little confused: "Why?"

Driss said: "Of course, I won't leave you here alone, but I believe you have a date to go to!"

"Date? What's going on?" Phillip looked confused.

"Don't panic, it's okay!" Driss didn't tell him, but stood up and said.

"But..." Phillip was a little nervous.

"Of course, you can't escape this time!" After saying that, Driss patted Philip on the shoulder and walked away.

Suddenly he turned around and returned the Faberge egg.

Then he leaned close to Phillip's ear: "Hug her well for me!"

Philip called Driss's name from behind, but Driss still walked away.

Just when Philip was at a loss, a graceful figure appeared in front of him and greeted him: "Hello, Philip!"

The person who came was none other than Philip's previous pen pal, Eleanor! Seeing that Philip and Eleanor were chatting happily, Driss waved to Philip and turned to leave.

Philip and Eleanor were left there alone!

The movie ends here.

The theater was silent for a long time, then suddenly burst into roaring applause.

The plot of "The Intouchables" can be said to be not trendy at all, but it made them feel comfortable, warm and healing to watch.

In this version of "Untouchable", Li Yi did not make any additions, but made some subtractions.

The effect is obviously very good.

Soon short reviews of "The Intouchables" were circulating on the Internet.

"The greatest respect for people with disabilities is not to treat them as disabled people. Respect is a higher level than love and compassion!"

“The plot is not that novel, and is even a bit cliché, but it doesn’t make people feel boring at all.

The story is told in a very relaxed way, which can make people laugh the whole time, but suddenly burst into tears at the end.

Identity, status, wealth, character, education, hobbies, age, these two people are so different in every aspect, but their magnetic fields fit together perfectly.

Regardless of love or friendship, the so-called good and loving relationship is when two people feel happy, integrated, free, and grow in the relationship. What is a soulmate? This is the legendary soul mate. "

"In the vast sea of ​​​​people, two completely different people meet, you change me, I change you, and those who meet will meet again. Regarding the social gap between rich and poor, juvenile crime, and racial discrimination, although it is not stated explicitly, it is reflected secretly , to highlight the character. The rich are rich but disabled and unhappy, while the black people are poor but have a kind and optimistic heart. This reminds me of the movie "The Bucket List" from the same director, but compared to "The Bucket List" Come on, it’s obvious that the pair of friends in “The Intouchables” can go further!”

"It's rare to not deliberately sensationalize. It's hard to imagine that an old-fashioned story can be so interesting, and it can always make people laugh and move people from time to time. Sometimes, maybe what you give me is something that no one else can touch. of."

"Happy but not obscene, sad but not sad. It is a blessing to encounter a life comedy that reaches this level."

“Perhaps, sometimes, you have to enter someone else’s world to discover what’s missing in your own.”

"Life is lonely. Lovers and confidants are out of reach."

It can be said that almost all of them have positive reviews, and the real reviews are rave reviews.

The key is that when this movie was officially opened for screening, it still received continuous praise.

Film critics are always quick to give their own opinions and interpretations of their favorite movies.

"There are actually many movies with stories similar to "The Intouchables", but most of the time, it's difficult to make people feel that deeply, because we know from the beginning what kind of story it is going to tell.

But "Intouchable" is different. It is endlessly memorable from the beginning, with some solemn music, a tall black man driving a car for a disabled uncle, through the same gloomy streets, and this is the opening. I thought it was the same old routine again - the sensational route. So, in order to feel the solid sense of existence, I bit the bullet and watched. Until the Maserati jumped in the group of cars, the passion in my heart also became excited with the pleasant friction sound of the tires, turning sharply and accelerating!

The character Derris actually represents the majority of black people at the bottom, who come from simple backgrounds, have no serious professions, have no higher education, and are socially disorganized. They are regarded as problems by society, but there is always something shining in them. --optimism.

He entered the interview room carefree and without any scruples, ridiculed professional musicians for not understanding pop music, and spoke out in order to get autographs to collect unemployment benefits. He was so straightforward and straightforward. In his own words, he knew humor!

This wanton expression and unobstructed conversation are so active and vivid in the musician's classical and serious home. He obviously doesn't understand art, but he insists on painting his own paintings; he is obviously a "little gangster", but he specializes in dealing with those who have betrayed their heart; he is lustful but not secretive, rough but upright; he does not know elegance and openly laughs at people dressed as trees in theaters The tenor, who had no formal education, pointed out the indiscretions of Philip's daughter righteously; yes, Darius was a "ruffian", but only he understood Philip who moaned in the middle of the night, "Quiet, Philip, Be calm, try to calm down, breathe slowly, can you hear me, be quiet, try to breathe slowly, it will be okay." What is needed is the most natural air.

He would ridicule Philip without any scruples, "Yanks beat their wives when they are drunk, she doesn't have to worry about you", "No hands, no chocolate", but what he got after the ridicule was Philip's laughter, a serious third-rate humor , but the popular dance he performed at Philip's birthday party made everyone go home.

There is no doubt that Driss is a real "living person". He knows how to let himself move with the rhythm of life. He is a beating note. He has brought not only great achievements to the Philip family who have long received orthodox education. It's not just about joy, but it allows everyone to virtually experience the meaning of "life" - respecting the life that only comes once.

Why do you like this movie?

Because it is like a personal poem I received, with some rough writing, but full of deep affection. The words tell you that I have trusted and relied on you so much.

This is a very, very pure film, yes, very pure!

It talks about friendship, which is more or less attraction at the beginning, then tears and laughter, gradually familiarity, understanding, trust, and finally unconditional love.

The story of the movie is very cliché and simple: pure friendship.

But the beauty of the movie is that the story is touching and emotionally sincere, without being overdone or artificial. Every little detail, every little laugh, is so pure, clean and natural, but can really make people laugh. For example, the scene where Driss pursues the female secretary Margery tirelessly, but finally discovers that she is a lesbian, is really hilarious.

But even so, when I saw Driss walking out of the door of Philip's house, politely asking someone to drive away the car, teaching his "brother" that this is the principle of life, and striding back to his destined life, I still couldn't help but get teary eyes. moist.

This is friendship. Driss may have been friends with Philip for money at first, but when he completed his mission but still kept in mind his principles as a friend, this was no longer driven by interests, but by profit. It was really friendship that changed him.

The film is reminiscent of the same black-white friendship movie, "The Bucket List," but goes further and talks about a stronger chemistry based on differences. A disabled rich man and a poor black man, the two worlds are very different, but their friendship collides with all kinds of mysterious sparks.

The character of Driss is well created, and it is divorced from the image of the movie. If we look at him based on today's values, I think most so-called "good people in society" would say NO to them.

The reasons may be just a few: education, skin color, poverty.

In fact, this is exactly what the film is criticizing invisibly. We often measure a person by our so-called social standards and ignore the shining parts of human nature. It is undeniable that there are many problems in the slums, but we can still find children like Derris, who are simple, kind, and have a sense of justice. Although they can cheat and steal, they are not as good as some so-called celebrities. Just as dirty, in comparison, their simple "crime for life" is a kind of strength, because they are also victims of materialistic expansion and social moral deformity.

The advancement of science and technology has brought us modern civilization, and places that are illuminated by the brilliance of modern civilization will inevitably have darkness. The pace of our lives is too fast, and our thinking is stereotyped and single due to the rapid pace. What we lack is that What is missing from simple "quietness" is an examination of ourselves, an inner examination. Forgot too much

In fact, Driss is a strong man in life. Although life is still helpless, he still maintains his integrity and humor. His attentiveness and kindness are revealed in every detail.

Where is Philip? He is also a very charming person. He comes from a family of classical music. He is adventurous, noble, and full of economics. He has almost all the auras that modern people expect. He is a typical product of orthodox elite education. Although he receives high-level education every day, He was influenced by art and lived in a palace as magnificent as a palace. However, just like the articles he wrote, they were full of gorgeous rhetoric, dazzling but unrealistic, and he was a "zombie" wearing gorgeous jewelry.

Two words to describe his life - depressive.

But we cannot completely deny everything about Philip. He also loved her passionately, "My real pain is not that I am in a wheelchair, but that I have lost her." On the other hand, maybe the wheelchair was a gift from God to Philip because he met Driss.

Put a 12km/h engine in a wheelchair and run wildly; face Darius's snowball in the snow; feel the "power" of Maserati; be abused by non-professional caregivers; but when Philip is picked up by Darius , he was laughing, smiling so happily. It should be said that Darius gave Philip a second life. His passion, his courage, and his happiness were all triggered by Darius.

The film gave me more laughter, allowing me to escape from the serious environment and laugh wantonly. Of course, in addition to laughter, there is also thinking. It has an optimistic and playful attitude towards life. Although the thinking is not solemn, it is Still profound, the laughter is not wild but still relieved, the heaviness and lightness are just the right blend, bitter yet sweet, sweet but not greasy.
