The Social Network (2010)
How Aaron Sorkin presents tight dialogue.
Presentation:
David Fincher impressively makes the story of Facebook's origins cool and slick. And even Mark Zuckerberg miraculously looks punchably charismatic. Despite being a film with tremendous dialogue, the script is tight, fast and compelling. There’s a certain percussive quality to Aaron Sorkin’s screenplays that create a tantalizing rhythm to the story. In conjuction with precise cinematography makes this seemingly monotonous docudrama into an explosive drama.
Conclusion:
A modern classic with a topic that I'm not sure people actually care about, but Aaron Sorkin’s masterful writing and Fincher’s direction makes it riveting, which is very impressive considering that any other director would have turned this script into a snoozefest. Some of the details may not be wholly accurate, but the essence is all there. An extremely re-watchable film just for the incredible dialogue.
