Many people try to stay when they apply for jobs, but when Driss in "Untouchable" goes to apply, he is bent on being rejected.
One is a white rich man, the other is a black, the values of the two people are completely different, after collision, but they have become the world's rare knowledge.
The French film "Untouchable", with a Douban score of 9.3, tells the story of the white rich man Philippe who was paralyzed due to an accident due to a skydive. He wanted to hire a full-time escort and took a fancy to Driss, who was different. They are people of two worlds, with different identities, status, and wealth, but it is these two who are so different that they have become lifelong friends. This film is based on a true story, and it turns out that there is such a beautiful friendship in the world.
What moved me in the film was that Driss never treated Philip carefully. I also went to apply for a job just to get a rejected signature and then be able to receive the bailout.
Every candidate talked about it, diplomas, education, and experience, and although they didn't say the word "sympathy," every word told Philip that he was physically vulnerable, that he was in limited mobility, and that he needed love and help.
Driss, on the other hand, was not unruly, and he cut in the line and recklessly told Philip that he only wanted a rejected signature.
Perhaps it was his uninhibited look and lack of conformist behavior that made Philip feel particularly alive, so Driss was left behind.
Driss's care for Philip was a bit of a mess at first, applying foot cream to his head during the bath, pouring hot water on his legs to see if he felt anything, looking at the beautiful woman's good figure when feeding, sending the rice spoon straight into Philip's eyes, and forgetting that his hand could not move when calling Philip. No matter how you look at it, this is all a heartless and lungless bastard with no sympathy.
He refused to do everything and then was punched in the face to do it.
He refused to help Philip wear medical-assisted socks, which looked a lot like those worn by women. Philip smiled and watched him find all sorts of reasons, and then obediently helped him with the tasks that were extremely resistant in his heart. And he refuses to cut for anyone, of course, the refusal is invalid. In the second half of the film, Philip takes him to a skydive, where he swears he will never play, and then he is seen shouting in the air: "It's too much fun." ”
However, there was one thing that he refused to do, and I was very touched.
Driss was going to take Philip out, and he wasn't happy with the wheelchair-specific car, saying he wouldn't go in, "I'm not going to cram you in like an animal." "He never treated Philip as a patient, he took him to drag, smoke, massage. They quarreled and talked a little yellow, and they enjoyed it.
Philip's life was no longer lifeless, and with Driss, his world became warmer. He would not laugh at Driss's rudeness, but watched quietly, laughing happily, and when he needed his cooperation, he would also pretend to be ill to hide from the police.
In fact, no mercy is a higher level of respect. His heart is free, and he longs for equal treatment of family and friends. There is no sympathy, no pity, no pretending years after year of acting, even birthday surprises to pretend.
Maybe they're not perfect, but when you meet the guy who understands you, they're healed from each other.
One is that the body is not satisfactory, the other is the family is not satisfactory, so what, life will continue to be, right?
Friends told Philip that Driss was reckless and violent, and that he should be careful. Although he is not a villain, he has a case and has been in prison for 6 months because of robbery. Most importantly, he doesn't do anything. These street thugs have no sympathy at all.
Philip, on the other hand, said: "It's because of this, that's what I want, no compassion." He always forgot that I was paralyzed and handed me the phone for me to pick up, yes, he had no sympathy, but he was strong, he had arms and legs, his head was bright, and his body was healthy, and the rest of the situation I was in now, like you said, his background or something, I didn't care at all. ”
Philip's care has changed and changed, his beard has grown and grown, and I still can't forget you, just as you never let go of me. Because Driss needed to take care of his younger siblings at home, he couldn't continue the job.
Philip did not force him to stay, but the change of care was not satisfactory, and his condition deteriorated day by day.
As soon as Driss heard that Philip was in a bad state and that he needed himself, he immediately dropped everything and rushed over. As usual, he joked with him, and Philip was willing to fool around with him as usual.
Driss shaved Philip's beard and had a lot of fun, and Philip was happy.
Loneliness is the norm, but with someone who knows you, the mood is so bright.
At the end of the film, Driss helps Philip meet netizens, and he helps him do what he wants to do most. Of course, such a thing must be done by a friend who knows very well, and in real life, it is still necessary to respect the wishes of others, because you may not understand what others really need. As Welles knew Philip, it was hard to find one among thousands.
The prototype of the story, Philippe and Abdel, have always maintained a close friendship, and their encounter is such a beautiful thing that it is difficult to find, and it is easy to do and cherish.
