25:13 Reminds me of a quote from a Bollywood movie called English Vinglish "When a man cooks, it’s an art. But when a woman cooks, it’s her responsibility."

[@hermionesings]

The patriarchy is men being told they won't be men if they don't amount to some great feat while telling women that they cannot amount to much. Therefore, they shouldn't try. One put one down through discrimination (women). The other put one down by telling them they're not enough as they are (men). And when both go for what they want: conflict.

That's so true and disheartening. I've even experienced it in my private life too: I'm a man and I like to cook, and people always compliment me, but then you see the women in my family cooking so much better and not getting the same praise. It's ridiculous. PS. I've seen English Vinglish once and really liked it. I'm glad to hear of it again

[@aliyahpulido953]

Man, I did NOT realize it at any point during the dozen times I've seen "Ratatouille" by now, but Linguini was into Colette since the BEGINNING! And without her, not only would Linguini not get training in the kitchen, the story wouldn't have happened. Linguini looked at her 11:58 and 12:45, and on the second timestamp, while he was distracted by her, his clumsiness made him tip over the soup, spilling half of it on the floor. In his panic, he tossed random ingredients into it and ruined it. Thereby giving Remy his chance to fix it and bringing Remy and Linguini together once Remy was caught in the kitchen. And then towards the end, Colette helped Remy and Linguini win Ego's favor by serving him ratatouille. Thank you, Colette! We couldn't have done this without you!

[@batmanvsjoker7725]

To be fair, when it comes to Rémy controlling Linguini with his hair, it's one of those movie moments where you just have to turn your brain off and go with it

[@bluewolf6323]

27:26 Omg, thank you for saying this so much! Because I hate when people use the "It's so predictable therefore it's bad" without either seeing the movie or just not enjoying the movie because it's "too tropey" It's a weird concept in my mind as someone who enjoys writing and who likes writing of the movie more than the drawing or art...

[@MaxusFox23]

Gotta give it to Remy's restaurant at the end since leftovers and scraps most likely go to the colony, that means "La Ratatouille" is a 0 waste establishment with barely any garbage being thrown out. Delicious AND eco friendly!

[@SevenEllen]

"... Which is weird because we've got to keep women in the just not in the professional kitchen." It's not weird from the oppressor's perspective because that's exactly how to keep people down.

[@a.g.demada5263]

Fun fact : Colette is inspired by the french chef Hélène Darroze

[@theodore8070]

One great detail is the theme about food driving you back in past memories fits perfectly with classic french litterature. In Proust's "à la recherche du temps perdu (Searching of the lost time)", the author explains how the taste of petite madelaine takes him back to his childhood, like an attempt to win the battle with time. Ego gets the same feeling and it fits perfectly since its set in Paris. Also, noticing how Remy is choosing a "peseant" dish. He knows his roots and he knows how to cook just like Anton's mom since he grew up and learnt how to cook in french country side. A chef with so humble roots reminding one of the top critics that kind of country side comfort but in a more gourmet, haute cuisine way presented. It adds to the whole "a great artist can come from anywhere" since Paris and haute cuisine/high society is famous for it's snob manners where someone could be treated as less worthy because of his less fancy origins.

[@McBackstabber]

1:17:02 "They make something new that was a marriage of the two sides of the story." I just realized, when Remy explains combining two ostensibly opposite flavors into one the result can be magical... man these writers....

[@TheFloraBonBon]

He fallen in the soapy water in the kitchen, so i guess he got cleaned. But i love how he was soaked and you can see his fur slowly dry.

[@aliyahpulido953]

1:10:38 Ratatouille, in its original and simplest form, is a stew made of different vegetables that have been diced or sometimes julienned and seasoned, then baked like a casserole. However, the style of layering and plating that Remy uses in the movie was invented and named by Pixar's culinary consultant Michel Guerard. The plating style has its own name: Confit Byaldi. Rather than stirring everything together in the pot before and while cooking it, Remy and Colette used a mandoline to thinly slice all the squashes and eggplant and then layer them in a spiral pattern before pouring on the sauce and baking it. Other than that the ingredients are the same. Ratatouille is considered a "peasant's dish" similar to gumbo, chili, Spanish Arroz con Pollo (chicken and rice), goulash, shepherd's pie, Italian Puttanesca sauce (literally "prostitute's pasta sauce") to go with pasta, Chinese congee (rice porridge,) and many more. All these dishes are meant to maximize the food/ingredients you already had or were able to easily obtain. They're very delicious and depending on your region, budget-friendly. Ratatouille is a vegetarian or even vegan dish because it contains no meat. If you have it, you could choose to add some, but most people leave it out. In countryside France, like where Ego lived as a kid when his mom made him Ratatouille, many people had/have vegetable gardens. So it was relatively easy to access tomatoes, squash, and eggplants that go in the dish. People who had livestock typically didn't eat it themselves, they kept chickens for eggs and goats/cows for milk and cheese rather than meat. A vegetable-based stew like Ratatouille was a very cheap meal that could feed a family and make you feel fuller with less food.

Ego's flashback is what us french call " une madeleine de Proust " what is something who remind us our childhood (not especially food) in reference of the french writer, Marcel Proust who said in one of his books that medeleines' odor reminded him the time where he went on his aunt's house and she always gave him one after dipping it in her tea.

Fun question, why was Linguini taking food to give to Remy not Stealing yet Remy taking food for his brother teft. At the time Linguini was just an employee, and arguably Remi was more the chef they hired in the most important way just without them knowing.

from a fellow person with adhd, i find cooking stressful as well. it requires a lot of multitasking and that in combination with the fear of wasting food and time can get very exhausting. that's why cooking is one of my most frequent sources of executive dysfunction. also, cooking is a prime source for intrusive thoughts. i often have to think of wanting to burn my hands on the hot stove tops or hurting myself with a knife. wrestling those thoughts while trying to cook is really draining.

I love Ratatouille! This is one of my favorite movies. I've always been interested in learning different languages, especially French. I started learning French in the 6th grade, and ever since, I fell in love with the French language and culture, especially the food. I love French cuisine! Food, in general, is so special. That's why I cry every single time I see Anton Ego's flashback to his childhood eating Ratatouille. This movie also inspires me because Remy is so passionate, and that is something that my parents always instilled in us. Whatever we decided to do, my parents always said we should feel passionate about it and work hard. Besides that, Remy has a friend in Linguini, and eventually, Colette believes Remy can be a great cook even though he is a rat. Ratatouille has taught me that there is always time to find/rediscover my passion, to keep going, and never stop, even if it seems impossible. I used to doubt myself and was trying to figure out what I wanted to do career-wise. I went from job to job, trying to figure out my path. It's been a long journey, but with the support of my friends, family, and my partner, I followed my path. In a month, I will take the next step in my journey and pursue a Master's in French Studies. I look forward to my future and continuing to study and eventually teach French.

Omg I am fucking crying, how did I not notice the up and down look in which she thought he was referring to as “little chef?” Jfc

[@videohistory722]

There's a very impressive theory that the old lady in the beginning is Ego's mother, and also that Gusteau is Ego's brother! This is evidenced by the fact that she's wearing the same thing in Ego's flashback when she made ratatouille, and if you look, there is what appears to be a portrait of Gusteau hanging in the background. The theory is essentially: Ego's always been hard on Gusteau because he felt like Gusteau sold out, and thus dedicated his own life to preserving their mothers teachings and recipes. The dish that cost Gusteau one of his stars was the ratatouille dish, because it was a far cry from the one they ate when they grew up with. This also perfectly sets up the ending, because its not just the realization that it's delicious, it's the realization of, "They did it. They finally perfected our mothers recipe!"

14:06 Yeah, rats are pretty squishy! That's why pet rats are such fun to be around and why they're so good at hide-and-seek. A rat can basically fit into any opening as long as their skull fits into it. They're very flexible, and yes, squishy.

[@dhmdlc7886]

58:28: I think you guys have also pointed it out when watching How To Train Your Dragon (or maybe it was another duo reaction channel, but I digress) that everyone had some sort of accent except for the main group of characters. A lot of people *probably* do this so the main characters are, *I guess*, easier to understand and be able to relate more to the characters. That, and keeping up a fake accent for someone who is not trained would probably take either a lot of time, money, and effort, or the act of forcing a fake accent with an already modified voice could possibly injure a voice actor's voice when it's their job in that movie/show to, well, voice act. It didn't stand out to me growing as I watched a lot of movies from before I was able to even understand lessons and important themes, but I definitely notice it a lot more now!

[@roxirock5455]

This is my sibling's favorite and it's really good. The message of not belonging to any group, to being yourself and being proud of yourself no matter what, is truly beautiful. "Change is nature" is such a beautiful line. The one thing i disagree with is the sterling part. Stealing food to survive isn't wrong. Also the fact that Remi stops seeing Gusteau after he says he never need him, chef's kiss. The characters are well put together and there's so many ditails that i can't imagine how much effort the creators put into it.

For context: what they make here is confit--it's essentially Ratatouille Pro. It's not something anyone can make without a bit of equipment. Actual ratatoiulle is like five veggies you chop, you fry, and then you throw in a pot (I'm not even exaggerating, that's literally the whole process). It's a peasant dish because it's very accessible, it's a grandma dish and feels like a hug :). (Stef, your family might even have had it because it's actually from the south of france and covered in olive oil).

This is by far my favorite Pixar movie. I find it funny though that people seem to interpret the entire staff quitting as "Oh, I don't want to work with a rat." Rather than "My boss has gone crazy."

I love this movie! It’s one of the few my dad actually sat and watched with me as a kid (he didn’t like most movies). I also have made ratatouille a number of times - not the fancy version in the movie, the stew version Ego gets as a child. It’s always a hit!

The moral of this movie is: Vegetables give you flashbacks (+resurrection) eat your vegetables, kids

[@a.g.demada5263]

That flashback is something that us french call " une madeleine de Proust " what is something who remind us our childhood. That's a reference of the french writer, Marcel Proust, who said in one of his book that madeleines' odor bring him childhood memories

@@a.g.demada5263 Ohh that's interesting! I wouldn't at all have guessed this bit was also a reference to french culture, dang! Thanks for the information that's actually really interesting lol

[@a.g.demada5263]

@@sS0O0L yes, it's better to know the culture of a country for being able to understand. The memory of the writter is that when he went on his aunt's house, she always gave him one after dipping it in her tea. But " une madeleine de Proust " can be another thing than food. And that's not all : what Ego ate isn't the real ratatouille but " un tian de légumes ". The real one is the one we see in his flashback

@@a.g.demada5263 I swear this is making the movie better lol

[@a.g.demada5263]

@@sS0O0L there's also others reference to french culture like the name of two members of the kitchen : Pompidou (reference of the second french president Georges Pompidou) and Larousse (a mark of a dictionary). Colette is inspired by the french chief Hélène Darroze (they got into her restaurant for observing her) and her french voice is the singer of " Le festin " the song we can hear during the movie. By the way, when Colette called ratatouille " a peasant dish " that's because it's not considered as gastronomic.

In general for me if my food is edible then generally Im happy, especially since I already put time and money into making it, so sunk cost and all. Lastly I really don't have a preferance for expensive cuts of meat, even when I eat it at occasions I honestly would be fine with that or regular ingredients

I've only seen the movie a few times years ago but only while watching this, it just clicked that Skinner's name is probably a reference to the psychologist BF Skinner who's done experiments with rats!

Honestly, Ratatouille is one of the only Pixar movies I actually like.

[@smeva26]

Damn Sam poppin off with the artistic appreciation!

[@aliyahpulido953]

1:09:40 I'm glad that no reactor I've seen reviewing "Ratatouille" is immune to laughing when they see Git (the lab rat with an A1-13 tag, a famous Pixar/animation studio number that shows up in MANY animated features) punching the steak to tenderize it. I guess he's a *literal* gym rat? lol

25:44 that's what people mean by "women didn't work in the past" throughout most of history, most of women were expected to do the same jobs as men (farming, crafting, sselling, cooking, healthcare) alongside their maternal duties of housekeeping, homemaking, raising and teaching kids, etc. except they were prevented the status those jobs offered. A man can be a farmer, his daughter or wife would just happen to help in the chores holding a farm requires; a mother would obviously help take care of pregnancies in her community because she had knowledge and communities were just so much more inter-dependant than today but as soon as midwifes and physicians became careers women who owned such knowledge were demonised. Obviously like everything in history it's a lot more gray than that, some profitable jobs were primarily held by women (mode sellers, mantua making, even jobs in education) and people were not a monolith so a fair amount of women did hold a prestigious job and title after being widowed and they were respected as the person in charge of that job(which explains why romance and beauty so important things to have taught women, it was the main power they owned in society and the only tool they could use to take control of their lives) ... But yeah, that's why cooking as a job is a man's thing, cooking as skill is expected of women, same with styling, tailoring/dressmaking, home decoration, education, etc.
