The Social Network

The Social Network is a movie about the creation of Facebook by Mark Zuckerberg. He was a student in Havard University, a computing genius, and in an autumn evening, in 2003, he had an idea and he decided to work hard on it. The story begins in a poor dormitory, and several months of hard work later, Facebook was created, and the name of Mark become known, in the United States at first, and everywhere around the world soon time afterwards. But for him, becoming the youngest billionaire in the world, prompted personal and legal problems, his girlfriend left him and he was accused of stealing the idea of Facebook. I find that David Fincher made a very good adaptation of Ben Mezrich’ novel : The accidental billionaires : the founding of Facebook, a tale of sex, money, genius, and betrayal. The film is really interesting and i think it’s good to know the story of Facebook, a true phenomenon that everyone knows of or use now, the young as well as the old.
