WUD Film Presents: The Social Network (2010)

USA | 120 Min | PG-13 | Dir. David Fincher   In 2003, Harvard undergrad and computer genius Mark Zuckerberg (Jesse Eisenberg) begins work on a new concept that eventually turns into the global social network known as Facebook. Six years later, he is one of the youngest billionaires ever, but Zuckerberg finds that his unprecedented success leads to both personal and legal complications when he ends up on the receiving end of two lawsuits, one involving his former friend (Andrew Garfield). Based on the book "The Accidental Billionaires." - Rotten Tomatoes   David Fincher's film has the rare quality of being not only as smart as its brilliant hero, but in the same way. It is cocksure, impatient, cold, exciting and instinctively perceptive.-Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times   Watch the trailer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lB95KLmpLR4         For information on available assistive content for WUD Film screenings, please visit the Assistive Movie Screenings in the Marquee Theater page .   Visit our Informed Moviegoing Resources page for links to resources that explore film ratings and content alerts.
