Comments: The McDonald brothers have a hamburger stand in San Bernardino, California. They order six milkshake mixers from a traveling salesman. He drives out to see them and is shown the operation. Ray Kroc sees the potential and convinces the brothers to allow him to manage the franchising part of the business. Soon, his franchises vastly outperform the brothers' business.
Yes, this film is about the man who grew what is now known as McDonald's. I enjoyed the film. The persistance of Mr. Kroc is admirable. Furthermore, I didn't realize how much time and effort went into providing us with the consistant, famous fast-food chain. A neat fact is that the McDonald brothers are originally from New Hampshire! Recommended.
