The new film The Founder tells the story of Ray Kroc, who turned a single California burger restaurant into a multi-billion dollar worldwide franchise. Michael Keaton plays Kroc. Critic David Edelstein says:

“It’s hard to believe there was a time McDonald’s wasn’t ubiquitous on the American landscape and its assembly-line model for food service wasn’t the model. For that alone, you should see the Ray Kroc biopic The Founder, crisply directed by John Lee Hancock from a script by Robert Siegel. Because alongside Adams and Jefferson and Hamilton, we should consider the Founding Father of fast food culture.

The movie’s title, I should say, is barbed. Kroc turned an ingeniously mechanized San Bernardino fast-food hamburger restaurant created by Dick and Mac McDonald into a franchising goldmine—make that diamond mine. But despite his later claims, he didn’t actually found the restaurant. He more or less stole it.

Michael Keaton is a sensational Kroc, who begins the film selling milkshake blenders with not much success. In his sleazy way he’s likable: He’s devoted to the gospel of Norman Vincent Peale, he hustles like mad, and when he spiels he evokes his manic supernatural salesman, Beetlejuice.”
