Deconstructing Film

How would this film play out with Real Life consequences ??

Ratatouille is a computer animated comedy film about a scrawny rat named Remy finding his dream of Culinary SuperStardom by stirring up controversy in the kitchen of a Fine French restaurant.

It's hard being a rat with culinary aspirations, but Remy is convinced he has what it takes to break the stereotype and follow in the footsteps of a star chef.     
 After Remy is separated from his family mischief in the sewer directly beneath  Gusteau's elegant restaurant, he teams up with a young chef with little talent named Linguini and together they make some fabulous dishes while living in fear that someone  might find out their secret and strongly object to a rat being in a kitchen, as I suppose I would.



 When Remy's passion for cooking turns the French cuisine upside down, the rat learns important lessons about life, friends and family while questioning whether he should pursue his culinary dream or return to his underground life as a sewer rat.
Now I know this sounds really disgusting.  Who in their right minds would ever dream of a COOKING RAT, let alone eating a meal prepared by one.  If you are like me and have ever encountered a Mouse in your home, Screaming for the Uninvited guest to leave and Never return. Jumping on the furniture... too afraid of the mouse, then there's No Way you would ever find solace in this film.  But being the mom of an active pre-teen, I have had to succumb to many Disney films and Nickelodeon channels, and I just fell in love with this LIttle Guy, and you will too. !!
