Olivier Nakache, Éric Toledano

Director

French film directors who collaborate as a directing duo, known for co-directing the widely seen film Intouchables.

Their 2011 film Intouchables starred François Cluzet and Omar Sy. They frequently co-direct and work in the comedy-drama vein.

Two DeBaser reviews cover Intouchables (Quasi Amici) and Troppo amici. Reviewers highlight broad comedy, social contrast and strong performances (François Cluzet, Omar Sy). Both reviews recommend the films as entertaining, emotionally effective French comedies.

For:Fans of French comedy-drama, character-driven films and mainstream European cinema.

 At the end of the screening, I wasn't sure if it was appropriate to laugh, often uproariously, at the ruthless existential vicissitudes of Philippe, an educated and wealthy quadriplegic (the excellent François Cluzet), who by sheer coincidence sees his grim fate intersect with a diversity less familiar to him, the social and generational one, personified by the infectious daredevil from the Parisian banlieues, Driss (the astonishing Omar Sy).

 For passing a relaxed evening and having a few laughs, it's more than recommended.
