Description

On paper, The Social Network is about a college student creating Facebook, lawyers asking questions, programmers writing code, and people arguing over who deserves credit. But David Fincher and Aaron Sorkin turned that into one of the most gripping movies of the 21st century. From Aaron Sorkin's rapid-fire dialogue and competitive conversations to David Fincher's precise visual style, The Social Network became much more than "The Facebook Movie". It was a conversation about the future of humanity. It was never just a movie about Facebook. It was about power, status, ambition, betrayal...and the filmmakers who knew exactly how to make those things feel dangerous. Now, with The Social Reckoning bringing Facebook back to the big screen, there's no better time to look back at why the original remains impossible to replicate. #thesocialnetwork #thesocialreckoning #facebook #markzuckerberg #nerdstalgic
