Trivia
This is a remake of the French film Intouchables (2011). In Germany and The Netherlands, it was the most successful French film in history. The same story has also been filmed as the Argentinian film Inseparables (2016).

Goofs
When Dell attempts to insert the catheter into Philip, he is shown holding a large rubber tube. The tube is too large and floppy to be inserted. A real catheter is much smaller and more rigid.

Quotes
Dell Scott: You can have any girl you want, man. You rich and you available. What about this lady right here with all the botox? Y'all be perfect for each other. You can't move your body, she can't move her face.

Crazy credits
In the disclaimer at the end, where it reads, "Names Used Herein Are Fictitious," the word "Fictitious" is misspelled "Fictitcious."

This was a good movie

This was a good movie. I felt pretty confident that Bryan Cranston would be the anchor for the show but was afraid Kevin Hart's style of comedy would blow it off its moorings. I worried in vain. This film was the kind of Dramedy (Drama/Comedy) that I appreciate - it drew its humour from life, not the exaggeration of life. What a stellar supporting cast, who were, as you'd expect, wonderful. Well performed. Moving. Courageous. I've since found out that the premise for this movie was based on an actual relationship that was first portrayed in a much awarded French film, THE INTOUCHABLES (2011). I now can look forward to seeing it. I give this film a 7 (good) out of 10. {Dramedy}
