You don’t fool me, Ratatouille. Oh sure, you may look all plump and cute, with your soft glossy fur, teeny tiny paws and uncanny dexterity with a wooden spoon, but I know where you been at, punk. Sewers. That’s where. Dark stinky sewers, and the dark recesses of the night, when I hear you scuttling, scuttling endlessly, worrying away at my sanity…
Clearly rats are up to no good, and nowhere more so than in this video. Rats are dancing suspiciously. Rats are being taunted by a matador. One rat is messing , threateningly, with a cog. All of this set in a riotous theatrical set of detailed cut-out puppets, live-action, and plenty of behind-the-scenes compositing. Alasdair Brotherston, who directed this video, was recently noticed by Kanye and is now represented by Trunk, along with his collaborator Jock Mooney.
What role did this nefarious rat-filled music video play in this? Draw your own conclusions.
