Thank you, I’m glad you like it!
My science class JUST started talking about recessive genes/traits, and when I read your post, I was like “What?”
Anyway, back on topic, maybe Remy’s mom passed away? I know many people have probably already said that, but that’s the only reasonable thing I can think of. Either that or she left Remy’s dad (speaking of which, that gives me an idea).
i think they should have made Remy’s mom have a big role. maybe his father would be less mean and more understanding of Remy’s dream of being a cook.
Did you see my post on the first page? She’s def in the movie.

I wouldn’t of liked them to change Remy’s father’s presonality (in the beginning). Having the father be unaccepting created conflict for the movie to happen.
I think Remy’s mother having a huge role would have been distracting. They had a full enough cast, IMO.
