How does one socially inept college kid create the world’s largest and most popular social network?  A complicated question to answer, but one that Aaron Sorkin and David Fincher explain with ease in the film The Social Network.    According to Roger Ebert, “‘The Social Network’ is a great film not because of its dazzling style or visual cleverness, but because it is splendidly well-made.” and Peter Travers of Rolling Stone calls it, “[b]racingly smart, brutally funny and acted to perfection without exception, The Social Network lights up a dim movie sky with flares of startling brilliance.”

Nominated for six Golden Globe Awards and certainly an Oscar contender, The Social Network comes out on DVD on January 11.
