This is the beginning and end of Zuckerberg's lawsuit, but it has become a wonderful work of art because of ingenuity.

If you change to a mediocre director and editor, if you change to a lesser soundtrack, if you change a bunch of actors who don't know the characters so well, then this work will not be as classic as it is now.

No matter how many times I watch it, I feel that the control of the rhythm, the cohesion of the plot, the performance of the actors, and the color palette of the background of the different entrepreneurial periods are all in the realm! Although the narrative is interspersed with flashbacks, it does not seem messy at all. Every plot has its own necessity, and every blank space is just right. What's more, the heroes are all there! What! good! Look! (Cross out the last sentence)

I watched it again recently. It was already two o’clock in the morning when I finished it, and I had to get up early the next day to change the thesis to the teacher. I watch a few movies and stay up late to watch them if I don’t have time. Every time someone asks me how I don’t watch variety shows except for movies, the list of movies I cite must include this social network. To be honest, apart from movies, I can't find any other art form that can make these two famous lawsuits so exciting.

The Social Network quotes

  • Amy: You're a zillionaire!

    Sean Parker: Not technically.

    Amy: What are you?

    Sean Parker: Broke. There's not a lot of money in free music, even less when you're being sued by everyone who's ever been to the Grammys.

    Amy: This is blowing my mind.

    Sean Parker: I appreciate that.

    Amy: I gotta hop in the shower and get ready for class.

    Sean Parker: Bio-Chem even though you're a French major who's name is Amy.

    Amy: You passed.

    Sean Parker: I'm a hard worker.

  • Sean Parker: You mind if I check my email?

    Amy: Yeah, go ahead.

    Sean Parker: [logs on and sees The Facebook] Amy? Amy!

    Amy: Yeah?

    Sean Parker: Can you come out here?

    Amy: Just a second.

    Sean Parker: There's a snake in here, Amy.

    Amy: What?

    [runs from shower]

    Amy: Where?

    Sean Parker: Okay, there isn't a snake but I need to ask you something.

    Amy: Are you kidding me? I could have been killed!

    Sean Parker: How?

    Amy: By running too fast! And getting twisted in the curtain. What do you need to ask me?

    Sean Parker: I went to check my email and there's a website open on your computer?

    Amy: Yeah, after you passed out last night I went on The Facebook for a little bit.

    Sean Parker: What's that?

    Amy: The Facebook? Stanford's had it for like, two weeks now. It's really awesome except it's freakishly addicting. Seriously, I'm on the thing like five times a day.

    Sean Parker: Mind if I send myself an email?

    Amy: Yeah, is everything okay?

    Sean Parker: Everything's great. I just need to find you, Mark Zuckerberg.
