For the parabola $y ^ { 2 } = 4 x$, let $l$ be the tangent line at point $\mathrm { A } ( 4,4 )$. Let B be the intersection of line $l$ and the directrix of the parabola, C be the intersection of line $l$ and the $x$-axis, and D be the intersection of the directrix and the $x$-axis. What is the area of triangle BCD? [3 points]\\
