The Founder, and other matters…

Today we saw the trailer for The Founder, a movie starring Michael Keaton. It's based on the true story of the founding of McDonald's. Michael Keaton plays Ray Kroc, who was originally a partner of the McDonald brothers but managed to take over the company. The McDonald brothers had the original idea of fast food; they said their burgers would be ready in 30 seconds. Ray Kroc had the idea of franchising the business to make it bigger and make more money. Laura Dern plays Ray's wife. The movie is scheduled to start playing at Denkikan on July 29th.

The English Premier League season has now finished. On the last day, Arsenal, Liverpool, and Manchester City all won their matches, which means that Manchester City come 3rd and Liverpool come 4th. Arsenal, for the first time in 20 years, will not play in the Champions League next year.
