Like many dedicated movie fans, I have a carefully curated list of “comfort watches.” These are the movies I turn to when I don’t have the mental energy to focus on something wholly new, and instead crave a familiar flick that I can enjoy without needing to engage my brain. One of these movies is “The Founder”, a biopic about the founding of McDonald’s.
I’ll admit it’s a slightly odd choice. And for the record, I’m not Maccies maniac either. If I’m in the mood for fast food I’ll opt for a Five Guys or Chiplote any day of the week. Yet there’s something very pleasing about “The Founder.” And now that the 2016 drama movie has been added to Netflix (in the U.S., at least, it’s on Prime Video in the U.K.) it’s got me in the mood to enjoy my personal cinematic comfort food.
