Plot Summary: Academy Award®-winning director
Brad Bird ("The Incredibles") and the amazing storytellers at Pixar Animation
Studios ("Cars," "Finding Nemo") take you into an entirely new and original
world where the unthinkable combination of a rat and a 5-star gourmet restaurant
come together for the ultimate fish-out-of-water tale.
In the hilarious new animated-adventure, "Ratatouille," a rat named Remy dreams
of becoming a great chef despite his family's wishes and the obvious problem of
being a rat in a decidedly rodent-phobic profession. When fate places Remy in
the city of Paris, he finds himself ideally situated beneath a restaurant made
famous by his culinary hero, Auguste Gusteau. Despite the apparent dangers of
being an unwanted visitor in the kitchen at one of Paris' most exclusive
restaurants, Remy forms an unlikely partnership with Linguini, the garbage boy,
who inadvertently discovers Remy's amazing talents. They strike a deal,
ultimately setting into motion a hilarious and exciting chain of extraordinary
events that turns the culinary world of Paris upside down.
Remy finds himself torn between following his dreams or returning forever to his
previous existence as a rat. He learns the truth about friendship, family and
having no choice but to be who he really is, a rat who wants to be a chef.
Directed by Academy Award®-winner Brad Bird

eighth feature sees the Disney-owned toon studio in very fine form, and
confirms Bird's reputation as one of the medium's most engaging
storytellers...more

ingredients that tickles the palette and leaves you hungry
