On a slight tangent: One interesting aspect of The Social Network is how apparently loose with the truth it was. I know there's been some talk lately (in light of movies such as The Imitation Game) about how much leeway a writer should have when writing stories based on true events. There's been interesting developments in Australia with someone suing over their fictionalised portrayal. It might be an interesting point to discuss re: Social Network. Here's a link to a story about the Australian case: http://mumbrella.com.au/house-hancock-case-implications-real-life-based-drama-producers-say-academic-276705

Luke, there is a HUGE plot element in TSN that contradicts the historical facts in a big way, something we will discuss next week. But that is Hollywood's attitude: Don't let the facts get in the way of the story. And in many cases, the emotional truth of a movie trumps whatever literal 'truth' there may be. Thanks for that link. Interesting...
