The Founder (2017) - Rotten Tomatoes

Fascinating story of a salesman who built the McDonalds' empire basically by lifting the ideas of these two McDonald brothers and selling it as his own dream. And eventually put them out of business and as far as the movie is concerned swindled them and their heirs out of billions of dollars over the years.

I watched this movie a few months back.
Very engrossing plot.
Enjoyed it, but wow, what an eye opener....
Gave a new meaning to ' cut throat' in business.

Kind of supports what is in the movie.

I watched it last week. It was OK, but nothing I would recommend. It sure made me look at McDonalds with a different view.

It was my pick on Netflix yesterday when donating platelets at the One Blood Center here in the Villages. Juanita did a great job with the needle sticking. They were quite busy because of the $10 gift card. Once I chose one of these movies I kind of have to watch it. Iron was 14.0 which was good and I am almost at 18 gallons.

Kroc sure had some business savvy advisers who went along with the rat eat rat approach to acquiring riches.
