rataouille features Jean Garofolo. That precludes spending any money to see it. Also why would anything directed by sean Penn be considered?

Sometimes crazy liberals can come to their senses and direct redeeming films. Here's Christianity Today's Description of Sean Penn's directed film :

Into the Wild

directed by Sean Penn

The true story of Chris McCandless, a young man who gives his life savings to charity and hitchhikes across America to escape society and get back to nature—all while his parents have no clue where he is and are worried sick. Chris makes it to Alaska and moves into an abandoned bus, where his short but fascinating life ultimately meets a tragic end. This idealistic young man was running away from the right problems, but he ultimately ran right past the meaning of life—and those mistakes cost him his life. But the beauty and wisdom he encounters along the way have much to offer us all.

I didn't see the film so I don't know what sort of "beauty" and "wisdom" the film offers.

It’s the films themselves that are considered not the personal lives of the people who make them.

Because it was a good film what is hard to understand? I did not see it but those who did raved about it. Do you have a comprehension problem while reading? /sarc.
