The Social Network - The True Story Behind the Movie Inspired by Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook, and Eduardo Saverin
February 4, 2004. A young genius hits the final key to take the Facebook live, forever changing the fabric of how everyday people interact with each other. In 2010, director David Fincher and writer Aaron Sorkin delivered the definitive story on how Facebook came to be, and Jesse Eisenberg's enigmatic performance captivated the world. But how true was it? Even coding can be fascinating, especially when liberties are taken. Be careful who you partner with, because The Social Network was indeed inspired by a true story. Welcome to Inspired By A True Story, a podcast where every two weeks, our award-winning hosts and film critics discuss the genuine details that have inspired some of the most memorable true crime movies around. Each episode will break down the crime or crimes that inspired a specific film, and then discuss how factual that film is, versus how much is simply Hollywood magic. Media inquiries, direct thoughts on this episode, and/or suggestions of films to cover for future episodes of Inspired By A True Story can be sent to Aaron@TheHollywoodOutsider.com or Inspired@TheHollywoodOutsider.com Listen to all episodes of Inspired By A True Story at https://www.thehollywoodoutsider.com/inspired-by-a-true-story/ Support the podcast and gain early access to episodes of Inspired By A True Story at https://www.patreon.com/thehollywoodoutsider "Southern Gothic" and other music provided by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/
