The Intouchables (2011)

Just rewatched one of the best non-english film I've seen in recent time. An amazing story about a wealthy aristocrat, who after becoming quadriplegic from a paragliding accident hires a troubsome but kind young man as a caregiver. Outstanding autobiography story by Philippe Pozzo de Borgo. Fantastic performance by Fançois Cluzet and Omar Sy. Also great performance by Anne Le Ny, Audrey Fleurot, Grégoire Oesterman, Thomas Solivérès etc. A heart-touching story with heartwarming ending. One of the greatest French film of all time.
