The Social Network


I forgot to mention in the last post seeing 'The Social Network' with Rene at the Dendy, Portside. It was some ten days ago, but it still sticks clearly in my mind. A very interesting film full of people I'd rather not meet in real life. The lead character (all are real people portrayed in this movie) is autistic, and although never mentioned by name, this characteristic pervades his reaction to what's happening around him and the way he interacts with others. I'm assuming the events and characters are portrayed quite realistically, and if so it must have been surreal seeing oneself played in a film that starts around 2003. Please see it, you won't be disappointed.
