Ratatouille (2)

  • I've just seen last night, the last pixar movie: Ratatouille, as usual it's fantastic, Pixar is definitely so ahead of the other CGI animation studios. The story is great, but i also found myself dragged, into admiring the perfection of some details of the images, the motion of the rat, how their fur move , or all the work with the water, the copper ustensiles in the kitchen. It will definitely ends up in my DVD collection.And the movie is so full of details, from the Citroën cars (Ah la DS ... ), to the bread. The director is Brad Bird, already famous after The Iron Giant (1999) and The incredibles (2004), and which is called by A.Scott from the NY-Times the "the greatest living American filmmaker” .
    You can also read the critic of the movie by John Maguire on his blog.

    Just one thing: If France is certainly where you can fin good food, i would say Paris is the best place ;-P, and all French does not wear beret.

  • Very interesting article in the NY-Times, about why Republicans hate Al Gore, firstly because he's still here after the white house was stolen to him and to American voters, and secondly because he keeps saying the right things ahead of everybody.

    Hey TOF

    Thanks for the link! Delighted that you enjoyed the movie. Bird is a considerable talent - his next movie is a live-action,grown-up drama about the 1906 San Francisco earthquake, which should be just as interesting...
