Given its story (the making of a website) and the famously reticent real-life billionaire behind it, it seems a bit strange that David Fincher’s film THE SOCIAL NETWORK would be compelling viewing. But based on the almost universally positive response so far, that’s very much the case.
But what does the film’s actual subject, Mark Zuckerberg, think of the unofficial unveiling of his recent browser history? The Zuck (as his friends don’t call him) was on Oprah last week and gave his two cents to the afternoon overlord herself.
If you are unable or unwilling to witness the proceedings below, Zuckerberg describes the movie as “fun” but not necessarily indicative of his experience: “I can promise you, this is my life so I know it’s not that dramatic. The last six years have been a lot of coding and focus and hard work, but maybe it would be fun to remember it as partying and all this crazy drama.”
