Movie 1: The Social Network (2010)

The Social Network chronicles the meteoric rise of Facebook and the legal and personal battles that followed in its wake.
When Harvard student Mark Zuckerberg creates a social networking site that would eventually become Facebook, his life is transformed—but not without controversy.
Former friends, co-founders, and business partners take him to court, accusing him of betrayal and theft of intellectual property.
With razor-sharp dialogue, a riveting screenplay, and a haunting score, The Social Network offers a fascinating look at ambition, genius, and the high
cost of success in the digital age.
