Hello, everyone!
According to Wikipedia, there are 36,899 restaurants in the McDonald's network, in which 375,000 workers roast cutlets and sprinkle french fries with salt. Until 2010, McDonald's was in the first place in terms of the number of restaurants, now it was overtaken by the Subway network. So, it was time to make a film about the establishment of the McDonald's corporation and its history, I must say, is very interesting.
1954. Ray Crock (Michael Keaton) is a traveling salesman. One day he finds out about the order of 6 mixers in the cafe of San Bernardino and he is so surprised by their amount. He decides to go there himself and look at this cafe, where at the same time they prepare 6 milkshakes!
Arriving in San Bernardino, he sees the first McDonald's restaurant and meets two brothers - Dick and Mac.
Fount of ideas, Ray Crock immediately offers them options for the development of the restaurant.
Instead of Keaton, Tom Hanks was supposed to play in this film and I'm glad that he gave up the role. Still, Tom Hanks has a kind, simple-hearted face. And I feel the crazy of Keaton's energy. It was beating and I see the devil in his eyes. His character both appeals and causes negative emotions. With his stubborn pressure and self-confidence, Ray Crock knocked all the obstacles in his way. He wanted, he took. And thanks to him, McDonald's Corporation has a corporation of incredible size. After all, these are not just restaurants! It's a new religion.
The film flies by for a moment. You look at the titles with a surprise but you want more and. Show how Crock came up with all the new McDonald's chips, got some idea! You are charged with Keaton's energy and it all ends).
"The Founder" is a true story about the American dream. Here you are selling mixers, but now you've got luck and become a real shark of business. Perseverance and hard work will outgrow everything).
I recommend this movie for viewing. "The Founder" is an extremely well-directed biography of an interesting person. The film is dynamic, intense, bright and has excellent actors.
And I really liked the comment about Keaton under the movie trailer on Youtube:
He was Batman
He was Birdman
And now...he's Burgerman
When will he become Oscarman?)
The idea of the movie was good, the execution was bad. I couldn't even finish watching it. Michael Keaton is a great actor, but even he couldn't save this movie. It's all business and not enough message. Didn't work for me.
that's bad, but how many people have so many opinions. I really liked the movie and after I read a few articles about these characters.
