导演布拉德.伯德的确名不虚传。网上说为了制作《美食总动员》，皮克斯公司专门养了不少老鼠来记录老鼠的每一个动态。甚至收集吃剩的苹果，来观察苹果核随着时间而发生的变化。凭着这种精神，《美食总动员》里的每一个细节都做得十分到位。

The director Brad Bird really deserves his fame. On the Internet they said that just to make ''Ratatouille," PIXAR specially a bunch of rats and recorded their every move. They even collected apple peels and observed them to see the changes that would happen to them over time. In that spirit, every detail in ''Ratatouille" is done extremely well.
