Friday, January 11 - 7:30 PM
Co-presented by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association: THE INTOUCHABLES, 2011, The Weinstein Company, 112 min., France, Dirs. Olivier Nakache & Eric Toledano. In this sparkling comedy, Philippe (Francois Cluzet) is a wealthy quadriplegic looking for a new live-in caretaker. Senegalese immigrant Driss (Omar Sy, who earned a Best Actor Cesar for this role) seems an unlikely choice at first, but because he treats his new employer without pity, the two hit it off. Their widely different backgrounds offer each a window into a new world: Driss experiences art and culture, and Philippe, encouraged by his young friend, brings a woman into his life. A major box office hit throughout Europe! In French with English subtitles.
