I'm not usually interested in biopics, but I think this actually looks really intriguing.

Fast Food Origins: McDonald's

Looks interesting, dunno that I'd want to see it in theaters but I'd definitely like to watch it eventually. Keaton is usually pretty good and I've heard it's a surprisingly interesting story.

I came across this streaming for free on Roku so I checked it out.

It was pretty good. Worth watching so I'm glad I did now. Wouldn't have been worth watching in a theater so I'm glad I didn't back then.

I really enjoyed the movie. Biopics and movies that have similar feel are the kind of movies I like to watch. Ray Kroc was definitely a go-getter and knew how to make money.. but eeeee was he stingy. I could never buy someone out and then never give them their royalties (after agreeing you would). That just makes me angry. :boohoo:

EDIT: Also, I would never want to own a McDonald's. Ever. Never in a million yearrsss.
