Wow! Only Aaron Sorkin could write a movie about a sedentary, geeky life of a computer whiz (who's kind of a jerk, to put it mildly) and have an audience so rapt.
The Social Network's themes of revenge, desire and betrayal are compelling to say the least. The dialog is smart and rapid fire, like The West Wing though not as funny. It's a fascinating look at a man who's changing how we relate and connect in a big way. Just fascinating. I'm thinking of seeing it again next weekend, that proves this is good. Jesse Eisenberg was remarkable as Zuckerberg, the creator of Facebook, who's the quintessential nerd, but still commanded my interest.
I hope this gets some Oscar attention and wins best screenplay.
