It stands to reason that such a story about a computer nerd, such a story, is difficult to tell interestingly. However, it has changed a lot since it was written by David Fincher. From the masterpieces such as "The Seven Deadly Sins" and "Zodiac", it can be seen that Fincher is a person who "has nothing but biography". It is full of dialogues with huge gaps, but each dialogue is full of impact and vitality.
Although the story of Mark Zuckerberg, the young IT tycoon is also legendary, it is only a striking result. As for the process of business people starting a business, from the perspective of language in film studies, if they are not carefully controlled, they will Turned into a biopic like "The Success of a Young Billionaire." Like "Wall Street 2" not too long ago, the long paragraphs of financial jargon don't create tension, but make people drowsy, and one can't help but worry that "The Social Network" will step into the same river. so far so good. David Fincher didn't let me down.
After reading it in one breath, while not feeling boring, you will feel that it is over and it is not enough.
The core structure of this film lies in the fact that behind the legend of real events and entrepreneurship, the camera examines the forever lonely and wandering heart of a genius, with a dash of irony and sadness in this vision. Mark created the facebook empire, built a super club without invitations, built a huge social network to help people get closer in the virtual world, (later, China blocked facebook and created Renren), but he himself But in real life, people who encounter obstacles everywhere in interpersonal relationships. He has no way to establish a long-term and stable relationship with anyone. Whether it is love or friendship, he doesn't really care about money, but he will not easily admit defeat. He is proud and even a little deceived. Do not admit defeat. I don't want to see other people's strengths. Because deep down in his heart, he believed he was the only one on top of the world. Loneliness has naturally become a necessity. He occasionally fantasizes about making changes, but it only makes him more at a loss. He is used to being alone. Human thoughts and emotions are too elusive, and they are not as accurate as mathematical formulas and computer programs. , he would rather choose the latter.
What impresses me most is that Mark keeps refreshing his ex-girlfriend's facebook at the end. In reality, his ex-girlfriend didn't really forgive her, but she still signed up for facebook knowing that Mark was the founder of facebook. A silent forgiveness. As Mark refreshed his girlfriend's page again and again, and looked at the smile of his girlfriend's photo, he finally understood that he could only let go of it in the virtual world. The virtual world is his real way of communicating.
