MOVIE REVIEW | The Founder : an under-appreciated masterpiece

Just Films & That is a podcast that celebrates underrated, underseen and underappreciated films. In this episode, we take a look at The Founder from 2016. This film was chosen by one of our guests on the podcast, Kevin Gootee. It tells the true story of how fast food giant McDonald’s came to be what it is today. The film barely made back its budget in revenue, and was pretty much completely ignored when it came to awards season. And quite frankly, we just don’t understand why. This movie is an absolute masterclass in filmmaking, expertly executing cinematic techniques to draw you in and keep you engaged throughout. You can listen to the full episode on The Founder now, wherever you get your podcasts.
