Watching Ratatouille, and the scene where Remy and his dad are talking outside the rat catcher's shop window made me think they have a pretty good summary of the fundamental differences between the political left and right wings. Remy's dad says "this is the world as it is, you can't change anyone's nature, just fit in, figure out how to work within the system", while Remy says "…how can I change things? How can I make things better?"
