Movie #16 - The Social Network

It's been a while since I've written something in this blog and that I posted something about a movie. Well, yesterday I felt the urge to comeback to the blog to write about the new David Fincher's movie: the social network, the movie about the beginning of facebook. If you're one of the two or three people who usually check this blog, you know that one thing I really value and really determines whether I like a movie or not. The social network presents great acting. Jesse Eisenberg has a great part impersonating Mark Zuckerberg even though I suspect that the real Mark is not quite as fluent as Jesse's character. But two other things made me feel pretty good about this movie: one was the editing and the other was the music. Editing here is very dynamic and it really determines the way the story is told and what we can take out from each scene. The music is very good both the original created for the movie (where Trent Reznor from the NIN is involved) and the songs chosen. About this particular aspect, I love it when I'm reaching the end of the movie feeling that I've just watched a great movie and all the sudden a great song starts to carry us to the final credits. That also happened with this movie. It was great to end this experience listening to "Baby, you're a rich man" of the Beatles.
