Ratatouille
Let's enjoy this Easter season, with its many culinary traditions, to explore a tempting style of cinema: films that honor victuals, those who prepare them and those who devour them. Gourmet and luscious - in restaurants or in private, food is a jubilant playground for cinema. Unifying, outrageous, virtuoso or explosive, the scenes of meals and food offer the perfect frame to parody or shake up human relations.
A gastronome rat abandons his family and waste for Paris and fine cuisine.
The trailer is in english. The film will be presentend in french.
Brad Bird
Brad Bird is an American filmmaker, animator, and screenwriter. He developed an interest in the art of animation early on, and completed his first short subject by age 14. Bird sent the film to Walt Disney Productions, leading to an apprenticeship from the studio's Nine Old Men. He attended the California Institute of the Arts in the late 1970s, and worked for Disney shortly thereafter. In the 1980s, he worked in film development with various studios. He co-wrote Batteries Not Included (1987), and developed two episodes of Amazing Stories for Steven Spielberg. Afterwards, he joined The Simpsons as creative consultant for eight seasons. In 1999, he directed his first animated film The Iron Giant. He then moved to Pixar where he wrote and directed two successful animated films: The Incredibles (2004) and Ratatouille (2007). They earned him two Academy Awards for Best Animated Feature. He transitioned to live-action filmmaking with similarly successful Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol (2011), and Disney's Tomorrowland (2015). He returned to Pixar to develop Incredibles 2 (2018). Bird has a reputation for supervising his projects to a high degree of detail. Brad Bird advocates for creative freedom and the possibilities of animation, and has criticized its stereotype as children's entertainment, or classification as a genre, rather than an art.
