Disorderlies (1987)
Directed by Michael Schultz
As not-quite-orderlies who're downright Disorderlies, rap-music favorites The Fat Boys rule. Playing the freewheeling caretakers of the frail Dennison, they stir up a comedic culture clash in Palm Beach society that only proves laughter is the best medicine this side of a tax refund.

What critics compared Disorderlies to
I checked the production materials for “The Intouchables” and failed to find confirmation that any of this was inspired by 1987’s “Disorderlies,” in which the Fat Boys push old Ralph Bellamy around to his heart’s content.
Wesley Morris of The Boston Globe points out that "The Intouchables" resembles 1987's "Disorderlies," in which the Fat Boys shared their love of life and rap with wheelchair-bound millionaire Ralph Bellamy.
