"Ratatouille" revisited

Way back in 2007, I wrote a review of the Pixar movie "Ratatouille" in which I expressed deep reservations about the movie's protagonist, a rat named Rémy who dreams of becoming a top-tier chef in Paris.  You can find my review here, but the reason why I mention that old blog post is that I just watched The Film Theorists take on "Ratatouille"... and arrive at many of the same insights and conclusions I had arrived at almost two decades ago.  Watch the video deconstructing (and subverting!) "Ratatouille" here:
