From the Red Carpet: World Premiere of Ratatouille

This coming Friday is opening day for the Walt Disney Pictures presentation of Pixar Animation Studios’ next eagerly anticipated feature length CG-animated film, Ratatouille. Last Friday, Disney/Pixar Animation studios held the world premiere of Ratatouille at the Hollywood Kodak Theatre, home of the Academy Awards. Here are some of the sights and sounds from the multimedia extravaganza as we chat with Disney Studio chairman Dick Cook, Ratatouille stars Brad Garrett, Lou Romano, Peter Sohn, and composer Michael Giacchino.

As an added treat, there are also seven free downloadable, full-sized images direct from the red carpet.
