Our take on The Social Network

Fincher's 2010 drama dramatises the founding of Facebook as a tale of ambition, betrayal and loneliness, scripted with razor-sharp dialogue by Aaron Sorkin. Cool, propulsive and quietly tragic about the cost of success, it's a defining film of the digital age. If its verbal velocity and moral chill gripped you, seek out sharp dramas about ambition, genius and the people left behind on the way up.
