Michael Keaton is just amazing. What a treasure. This was some movie!

The McDonald brothers really saw themselves as the humble owners of a local fast food joint. They sold the process of how they got food to the customer so quickly to anyone willing to purchase it, such as Glen Bell, the guy who made Taco Bell. Ray Kroc saw an opportunity to make a simple little joint into a fast food empire. He took the opportunity when the McDonald Brothers didn't see what he saw. Ray may not have been the true founder of McDonald's, but he did become the founder of the model of fast food which still stands today. He was an extremely shrewd businessman who forcibly pushed for uniformity in each franchise. Some of the biggest additions to the menu came from seeing a need to fill a niche market. For example, one franchisee had a menu item that sold well on Fridays, due to the high Catholic population in the area. We know that menu item today as the Fillet of Fish sandwich. When trying to find a way to strike back against Burger King and their hold on the chicken sandwich, the Happy Meal was introduced. This decision approved by Ray made McDonald's the largest distributor of toys in the world. Ray Kroc was many things, but if he didn't jump on this opportunity, someone less visionary would have.

I was born in 1962 and didn't eat my first McDonalds burger until I was in high school and then only once. Didn't eat there again until I was in college. I was just like him. I thought it was the best tasting burger I'd ever eaten. I later worked there to help put myself through college and I got sick of them. :)

Everything in this scene is so wholesome and sweet. From the kind and nice interaction between the white guy and black woman in line (remember this is pre-civil rights era), to Keatons astonishment to how quick things were handled, to the cashier's gentle and friendly service disposition, to the open, welcoming and cleaning-the-walkway-manager Mac McDonald, if I viewed this scene too many times I'd go into a diabetic coma from the sweetness overload.

The man, Maurice "Mac" McDonald was too naive, too nice, and people like that get eaten up like snacks easily. It is crazy how Ray Kroc identified and used the dynamic between the two brothers against them. It is an important life lesson. Even in the end, he sucker punched them with a "Handshake deal" that he never honored. Because Ray knew he would get away with that one too, he treated the McDonalds brothers so badly, but also the movie reminds us that a fool and his money don't stay together very long.

Ray forced them out because even they didn't understand what they had and were holding everyone back. If Ray didn't force them out they would have gotten nothing and this franchising attempt would have failed like their last one. All 3 had faults. Ray was overly ambitious but the brothers were both naive and prideful. The latter two will get you killed in business.

I had a grandfather and have an uncle like that. We rent property and until I took over, the renters had them over a barrel, and they were too nice to make them toe the line. Just wanted to "give them a fair deal". These people are customers first and "friends" second. They signed a fair lease and were treated well, sometimes too well. My grandfather once gave a tenant several thousand dollars because he was "going through a lot". He never paid him back and he stole our grill (that we also let him use for free, including a free full propane tank) and smashed out all of the windows in the house and covered every surface in a substance that we could not identify. It cost my family $10,000 dollars to fix it and all I could do was fucking watch. Never again.
