Ratatouille (2007) Brad Bird created one of the most romantic visions of Paris on screen ever shot for this story about a wannabe chef – who unfortunately happens to be a rat. "Paris has a lot of history to it and it's lived in. So it has imperfections and part of why it's beautiful is you can feel the history in every little nook and cranny." They even made the tiles of the kitchen floor uneven, if you look very closely.
