Anthony Bourdain once said RATATOUILLE is the best food movie of all time. “The best restaurant movie ever made, the best chef movie. The tiny details are astonishing: •The faded burns on the cooks’ wrists. •The ‘personal histories’ of the cooks. •The attention paid to the food. •And the Anton Ego ratatouille epiphany hit me like a punch in the chest–literally breathtaking. I saw it in a theater entirely full with adults–and the reaction to that moment was what movie making was once–a long time ago–all about: Audible surprise, delight, awe and even a measure of enlightenment. I am hugely and disproportionately proud that my miniscule contribution (if any) early early in the project’s development led to a ‘thank you’ in the credits. Amazing how much they got ‘right.’”
