Synopsis: The true story of how Ray Kroc (Michael Keaton), a struggling salesman from Illinois, met Mac (John Carroll Lynch) and Dick McDonald (Nick Offerman), who were running a burger operation in 1950s Southern California. Kroc was impressed by the brothers' speedy system of making the food and saw franchise potential. Kroc soon maneuvers himself into a position to be able to pull the company from the brothers and create a multi-billion dollar empire.
Has anyone seen it? I never knew the background story of McDonalds and this movie did a great job of telling it within 60 minutes. I think anyone on this forum would appreciate the film.
I'm curious what you guys think of Ray Kroc.
In my opinion, I think Ray is the epitome of a true entrepreneur. He had great vision, persistence , and made difficult decisions (the right ones) when they had to be made to achieve the overall vision he had. He made decisions he believed right for the growth of the business, and has arguably been proven right.
