The Founder (2016)


This is a fascinating and little known story of greed, ambition and ruthlessness of one American businessman (arsehole) taking someone else's nice idea and wringing it dry so he becomes a very very rich man. I found this shocking and i never want to eat from this chain ever again, the brothers pictured above are the Mcdonalds, guess the eatery. The film itself is very good it cleverly makes you like it's main character Ray Kroc, even admire his persistence and then half way through you start to see a different person and by the end i was seething with hatred. This shines a stark light on the capitalism that we see and except everyday and i will not be eating anymore stolen burgers, ever.

Like This Watch These: The Aviator (2004) Decade spanning look at the early working life of Howard Hughes, Malcolm X (1992) Contains one of the greatest pre-death sequences in cinema history, The Social Network (2010) The creation of one of the blights of modern life, and greed being stronger than friendship.
