Intouchables (film) - {a MUST see}
Attended an advanced screening of French film Intouchables last night. When this hits theatres June 1st in Canada make sure you go see it! I wasn't expecting much initially as I did not read into the film but it somewhat blew me away and was surprisingly funny. That might explain why it is the top grossing film in France, Germany and Spain, which netted Omar Sy the 2012 best actor award at the Cezars (the Oscars of France). Although the dialogue is French, there are English subtitles so no worries. You'll also notice that Franรงois Cluzet looks like Dustin Hoffman's twin brother while Omar Sy has some resemblance to Lamar Odom. Either way, it's a touching film that will tickle your funny bone and is, in my opinion, one of the best films to come out this year.
