Review of The Social Network (2010) by Brad Y — 03 Mar 2013
With over 618 million daily active users as of December 2012, it's odd to imagine Facebook didn't even exist less than 10 years ago. The Social Network paints an image of a dishonest but driven kid behind the site's development, centering him around some of the people he left behind.
Aaron Sorkin takes liberties in writing pathological motives for Zuckerberg that were not explicitly discussed in any of his released deposition transcripts, but a surprising majority of the actions in the story are indeed true.
Sorkin and David Fincher delicately weave legal proceedings and computer programming into a drama full of brilliant, young and human personalities involved in a creation that has already significantly altered the course of human history.
