Remy is born with super mouse sense of smell and unlimited creativity. He who was born as a rat is different from his peers who like to eat garbage. He likes cooking, creating new products, and likes cooking shows by French chef Auguste Gusteau. It's a pity that Dad thinks that his talent can only be used as a poisoner.
On this day, he came to the host family with his companion Emile, Emile picked up a piece of cheese, and Remy picked a fresh mushroom. Climbing to the roof and using lightning, he finished a dish, but it was still short of saffron seasoning. At Remy's insistence, the two ran into the house looking for ingredients, but Remy accidentally learned that Gusteau was angry to death because critic Anton Ego dropped a star in his restaurant. The big-eyed grandmother of the house suddenly woke up from dreams. When she saw the mouse, she picked up the shotgun and swept wildly. The two accidentally hid the chandelier. Grandma unceremoniously blasted the chandelier in the room, and the whole ceiling shattered. A hundred mice family also fell out confused.
The mice escaped into the river with their own magical powers, while Remy grabbed Gusteau's recipe and escaped. The rats descended along the river, and Remy was lost because of the latest departure. Lonely, he waited for his companion in the sewer, and finally climbed the street with the encouragement of Gusteau (he imagined it). Climbing and climbing, he came to the roof and saw that his place was a brilliant night Paris, and it was a restaurant with only three stars left in Gusteau. (The critic deducted one, and the chef died and one less). Looking down from the ceiling, he saw a young man applying for a cleaner with a letter left by his mother before his death. The young man was Linguini, the son of a good friend of the late chef Gusteau. Although the current chef was upset, he was persuaded by the female chef Colette to keep him. Shaking around, Linguini knocked over a pot of soup. Seeing him at a loss, he throws all the materials that his eyes can see into the soup indiscriminately, and then adds more water. Remy's cooking spirit didn't allow himself to watch the tragedy happen. After all the hardships, he came to the window. He wanted to leave, but his heart would not allow him to do so. He threw all kinds of ingredients into the soup. Seeing that a pot of soup was about to be completed, Linguini found him. The chef approached, and he quickly hid the mouse in a colander. The chef was angry that the young man dared to cook in his own kitchen without noticing that the soup had been taken out. Unexpectedly, the gourmet who ordered the food liked the taste of the soup, and the female chef also supported him. The chef forgave him very reluctantly and put him in charge of the female chef. At this time, Remy was found and was locked in a glass jar by Linguini. He was ordered by the chef to throw Remy away, but he realized that the mouse in front of him might be his savior. He released it and took it back to his home.
The next day, the chef asked him to cook the same soup, but Linguini didn't know how to prevent everyone from finding the mouse, and the mouse could tell him how to do it. After going through the whole body scratching bite mark stage, the mouse accidentally discovered that he could manipulate his limbs by pulling Linguini's hair. That night, the two went home to practice frantically, and the mouse finally mastered the skills to control him.
Another day later, the current chef accidentally opened the letter written by Linguini's mother and discovered that Linguini may be Gusteau's biological son. The lawyer assisted in sending the DNA for testing, but the chef had to find a way to get Linguini's hair or anything that could be identified. To be on the safe side, the chef decided to ask Linguini to be the chef and let him provide meals for the guests. He wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of this threat. He didn't expect that with the help of mice, Linguini not only innovated the taste, but also received praise from the guests. The whole restaurant would order Linguini's special meals. After the break, the chef went to Linguini for a drink, and wanted to take the opportunity to shed some light on something. After all, he did see a peculiar mouse next to him several times. Linguini didn't say anything, but instead left saliva on the glass for subsequent DNA comparisons.
Remy walked out of the restaurant boringly and found that his good friend Emile was in the garbage dump next to the store. He gave Emile some food, and the two returned to the new rat den together. The rat dad told Remy that humans cannot be trusted, and also took him to see the window full of mousetraps and rat corpses, trying to convince the foolish son. Remy tells his father that he trusts in humans, and this is his only chance to develop his talents.
Back in the dining room during the day, the mouse saw Linguini who was tired to sleep after cleaning. The female chef's motorcycle sound approached, and the mouse hurriedly hid in Linguini's hat. He couldn't wake Linguini, but made the female chef mistakenly believe that Linguini didn't answer because he was lame and wanted to take the opportunity to get her fired. Linguini finally woke up after being slapped by the female chef who rushed out of the restaurant. He rushed over to explain that just before he told the mouse master, the mouse used his hair to remotely control him to the female chef, and the female chef happily kissed him.
Critic Anton Ego heard the news of the re-emergence of Gusteau restaurant, and decided to come to find the ballast. In the evening, Emile brought friends to eat. Remy was helplessly preparing to steal the key to the storage room, but unexpectedly saw Gusteau's will, Linguini's mother's letter and DNA identification report. The chef suddenly came back, Remy bit the papers and ran wildly, and the chef rode the stolen motorcycle straight after him. After going around, Remy managed to escape. The chef who returned to the restaurant saw Linguini and the female chef, who was holding a document in her hand.
Linguini suddenly became the focus of the media. He who cooked one after another superb dishes was also Gusteau's son at the same time, and he attributed all the credit to the talent and the female chef. The appearance of Anton Ego terrified the audience. He directly wrote a post with Linguini, expressing that he would taste his cooking in the future. The mouse expressed his dissatisfaction, but Linguini believed that the credit was on him because the mouse was too narrow-minded. The quarrel between the two was just seen by the chef who left, and he finally knew the secret of it.
Heartbroken Remy brought relatives and friends to the restaurant to retaliate, but Linguini didn't expect Linguini to apologize to him. It's a pity that the mouse can't hide after all, and this move makes Linguini very angry. He drove away the rats and told Remy not to show up again.
Anton Egon was waiting outside, but Linguini didn't know what to do. On the other hand, Remy falls into the former chef's squirrel trap to save Emile. Father and Emile rescued Remy, and Remy decided to go back and help. The mouse returned to the restaurant, Linguini told the truth, but no one, including the female chef, believed that the mouse was a chef. Everyone left Linguini, and Linguini left a shop full of guests hiding in the room. At this time, the rat dad rushed to assist Remy with the rat group, but their first task was to tie up the investigator who was notified by the former chef to check the environment and throw it into the food storage room. Under Remy's command, the rats completed many delicacies, and at this time the female chef also rushed back. She remembered Gusteau's belief: everyone can be a chef, but she was shocked when she saw the mice in the room.
The female chef asked Remy what she wanted to do, and Remy replied to make a Provencal stew (Ratatouille), a simple but not tricky dish. Under Remy's skillful hands, a simple Provencal stew was served. Holding a pen in his right hand, and a fork in his left hand to bring the vegetables in front of him into his mouth, Anton suddenly went back in time, thinking of the stew his mother had made back then. He finished the food with emotion and asked to see the chef. At this time, the former chef rushed into the kitchen after tasting the stew and was tied up and thrown into the storage room as usual. After the guests left, Linguini and the female chef took Remy out, telling the story of everything, and seeing how the mice cook and how Remy manipulates Linguini. Anton said thank you for the reception and left silently.
The next day’s newspaper wrote, “In many ways, the job of a critic is simple, and we take very little risk. We taste the chef’s work and then sell our judgments. In the negative comments, we improve Your own prestige and please readers at the same time. But what critics must face is that the meaning of a small piece of rubbish is more important than our comments. Comment parents have long taken a risk, that is, to find new The taste of the world and protect those new things. The world is always not friendly to talented new people, new ideas, new friends. Last night I experienced a new experience, this is a meal from extraordinary people Delicious food by hand. I and the cook challenged my original understanding of cooking and revealed that my past ideas were all outdated things. They let me escape from my cocoon. Finally, I must admit what Gusteau said That’s right. Anyone can cook. I didn’t understand his meaning until today. Not everyone can be a great artist, but a great artist may come from anywhere. I can’t imagine that there is more than a chef in the Gusteau restaurant. A more humble chef exists. However, in my review, he is undoubtedly the best chef in France. I will return to the Gusteau restaurant soon, hungry and have to eat more. "
Because of the rat problem, Gusteau The restaurant will close soon. Linguini opened a new restaurant with the female chef. There was a long line outside the window, and inside, there were regular customers Anton, and there were rat seats in the ceiling. The name of the restaurant is Ratatouille.
======================================
Frankly speaking, Pixar is a restaurant that often surprises me The company, from Toy Story, Bug Crisis, Monster Power, Finding Nemo, Superman, Cars to Ratatouille, is compared to the shark gangster with the same fish theme, and the rat country wanderings with the same mouse theme. Why Pixar can stand out in a variety of non-traditional and traditional themes, becoming a big winner not only in the same animation market, but also in the film market. For me, the biggest contrast before is Cars. Originally, I don’t like movies with robots as the protagonist, because it’s easy to get started, let alone the car as the main body. It immediately reminds me of the boring beetle. Herbie or what Knight Rider. But Cars just shot the friendship and love story and moved, and it's really not easy to have the old hero meet the new hero. The Ratatouille this time is not simple.
If you have played a game that was released before the movie’s launch, you should feel that Ratatouille seems to be a movie with no creativity, but only a mouse can cook! Who can’t think of it. No, only Pixar can make this animation. Not to mention the plot structure, not to mention the detail of the animation, the carefulness of the production team can be seen in all parts of the film, and every ingenuity will not make the audience feel abrupt. The great thing about Pixar is that the movies it produces not only entertain children, but also touch older friends. He did not target a certain ethnic group, but aimed at all people who still have a childlike innocence, regardless of age.
I think what makes Ratatouille really touching is the contrast. A young man who knows nothing, just because he is a human being, he can stand on the stage and win the trust of everyone. In contrast, the talented mouse can only lead a life that everyone shouts and beats. The conflict between the two realities time and time again reminds the audience of their birth gap through words and pictures, but at the last moment, the sharpest and most demanding critics gave the most moving summary. Although social injustice exists, the pure touch has never disappeared.
After I watched too many movies, I became an easy-to-predict spectator of the plot, it was easy to find the rules of the movie, and it was easy to lose surprises. Pixar movies often make me forget to think about what will happen next. Instead, I became a first-time movie-goer, indulging in the junction of fantasy and reality, just as Remy fell drunk in his cooking kingdom. Sincerely recommend this movie.
========== The
animation "Ratuitouille" mentions a mouse named Xiaomi who wants to become a chef. But this kind of thinking is mutually exclusive with the traditional notions that other members of the mouse family pursue. Therefore, it hides from other mice, secretly approaches humans, watches human cooking shows, and practices cooking skills in private.
Later, Xiaomi was separated from his family, wandered to the God of Cookery restaurant, and inadvertently saved a pot of soup broken by intern Kobayashi. Xiaolin needs a job, while Xiaomi wants the opportunity to practice cooking dreams, and humans and rats can discuss big plans for cooperation. Xiaomi hid in Kobayashi's chef hat and manipulated Kobayashi's hands and feet by pulling her hair. After countless practice and practice, she finally achieved the realm of "man and mouse as one". Xiaomi’s genius cooking skills, through Kobayashi’s physical performance, cooked food that amazed everyone, and made the deteriorating Cookery restaurant regain praise from all walks of life.
Every movie that is loved by the audience has a classic sentence that is easy to understand, so that the audience can take it away after watching it and enjoy it for a while. "The more rugged the road, the louder the laughter will be." "Life is like a box of chocolates. You only know what it's like when you open it in your mouth." However, the classic phrase in the animation "Ratuitouille" is "cooking." Accusation" is not so easy to understand.
Because literally, "cooking is not difficult" means "cooking is very simple." When applied to the plot of a movie, it seems out of place. Take Xiaolin as an example. He has cooked so many delicacies with millet, but he hasn’t learned anything. Cooking idiots are still cooking idiots. Millet's elder brother rice, no matter how good the ingredients are to taste, it will not set off a beautiful music melody in its brain, blooming colorful fireworks. For rice, high-grade cheese is no different from kitchen waste, and taste idiots are still taste idiots. For Kobayashi and rice, cooking is not simple at all. However, with the words of the food critic Anton Ego at the end of the film, we can try to get close to the meaning of "cooking is not difficult."
He said: "In the past, I used to choke in public... I sneered at the famous saying of the God of Cookery: "Cooking up troubles"! But I found that now I finally understand what he meant. Not everyone can become a great artist..., but Great artists may come from any corner. The geniuses who are chefs in the God of Cookery today are of unimaginable origin..." And to understand this passage, you must have background knowledge of French cuisine: that is , French cuisine is incredible!
French cuisine is definitely one of the most difficult dishes in the world. The visual, auditory, and tactile sensations of the first second from the moment the glutton enters the door have been carefully processed. The guests sit down, order, and the order of the rhythm of serving, the selection of ingredients, and the level of control of cooking techniques. Every detail is exquisite. Even the taste buds that the guests’ mouths will stimulate and collide are in the predetermined plan.
The goal of French cuisine, in addition to satisfying the appetite of the guests, also includes allowing the guests to experience an artistic feast for the soul. In order to reach the artistic level, French cuisine will naturally form a layered class system, what class people do and what they do. Just like the female chef Lele taught Kobayashi, "We are responsible for completing the cooking step by step and creating surprises. That is the business of the cook god Gusto." Kobayashi's two unexpected cooking performances broke the original check-and-check system. You will see that the fineness of French cuisine, and the sauce that is poured on the cooking plate at the end, has a special person responsible for tasting it.
For French cuisine, to climb from one level to the next level requires a lot of examinations, training experience, and pedagogical origins. The cumbersome design of chef uniforms is evident. It clearly presents the qualification, identity, experience, status, and class of the chef. The various accessories from the head to the toe of the chef's uniform have class implications.
As far as the chef hat is concerned, only the chef can wear the towering chef hat, and other small characters can only wear the white drooping round hat. The uniforms of student entertainers are made of plastic buttons, and only real chefs are qualified to wear cloth buttons. The chef's apron can only reach the knee, and the high-ranking chef can grow to the ankle. For the color of the scarf, take the Grand Hotel Taipei as an example. The chef wears a blue scarf, and the assistant chef wears a red scarf.
When Xiaomi lay on the roof glass and looked down at the restaurant kitchen, when he had the first opportunity to see the working situation in the kitchen, the ghost cook on the side, the first question in the test was, "You can tell who is Chef? Who is the sous chef?..." the class question. Xiaomi got it right! That's because it observes the work in everyone's hands, and the chef uniform is an important reference indicator.
Anton Ego finally understands the meaning of "cooking bad things", that is because he eats the most delicious food in the world. It turned out to be a common home-cooked mixed vegetable fort, and it turned out to be the hand of a mouse. Basically, in the traditional French cuisine concept, home cooking cannot be served on the countertops and will not be listed on the restaurant menu; only high-class chefs can cook delicious food. Rats are not even qualified for humans, let alone any food they have served. School, what kind of chef training.
If Anton Ego is loyal to his taste buds to write reviews, he must overthrow the original concept of French cuisine. This requires a lot of courage. Therefore, he said, "It takes a lot of time and strength to establish authority, and it is worthy of admiration and respect to be willing to succumb to the unknown domain of oneself." This sentence is not to subvert the tradition and despise the system, but to control the system. affim. The complicated system has an indelible contribution to the performance of French cuisine at the artistic level. However, what is more worthy of admiration and respect is the persistence in uncharted territory. Who can defend the new discoveries in this unknown field at that breakthrough point? That kind of courage is even more admirable.
It can be said that the whole movie is talking about how precious it is to be honest with oneself, to be loyal to the truth, and to have the courage to fight against the existing value system. Xiaomi, Kobayashi, and Anton Ego are all the protagonists in the movie and share the above characteristics. Although there were sacrifices and losses, each received a more valuable reward.
Anton Ego sacrificed his status as the first critic, but was free to enjoy the food prepared by Xiaomi for him every day. Xiaomi was honest with herself. Although she had a bad relationship with her family for a while, her persistence in her love for cooking finally changed the hearts of the mice. Kobayashi publicly revealed the truth. Although it caused the restaurant chef to resign collectively, he was respected by his girlfriend Lele. He also found his own position. No one did better than him in the field service work.
The concept of this film can also be used in the pursuit of faith. When we are touched by the love of Jesus, we will find that there may be many layers of shackles of traditional Chinese culture, and we must have the courage to face it. Especially men who bear the responsibility of ancestor worship will encounter Xiaomi's problems. How can he confess his love for God to his family and testify to his relatives that Christianity is good, not the traditionally recognized belief of "Christianity, no one will cry" (Taiwanese).
As for "cooking without difficulty", it can also be extended to "belief is without difficulty". For some Christians, belief is quite difficult. The Bible is so thick that it takes a long time to read it, and there are still many places in it that I don’t understand. Prayer is not smooth, as if talking to the air dryly. They felt that the pastors such as Graham and Yongji Zhao were closer to God, and they were reused by God. This concept is that "belief is not easy," and it needs to be balanced and corrected with "belief is not difficult."
Let us replace Anton Ego's words: "Not everyone can become a contemporary spiritual great man through theological education..., but spiritual leaders may come from any corner. The servants who have been reused by God through the ages have some low births. It’s hard to imagine..."
"Faith is a condemnation" to help correct established prejudices, and no longer think that belief is difficult, nor is it self-defeating, and consciously inferior to the pastor. We should go the other way and listen to our hearts from time to time so that the Holy Spirit has the opportunity to speak to us so that we can know God's plan and how He wants to use it. All of us will be God's reused servants.
