"You Can't Make 500 Million Friends Without Making A Few Enemies"
Such is the tagline to a movie about Mark Zuckerberg's road to the excessively popular Facebook social network that has paved a reason for Columbia Pictures to release a trailer about its upcoming release, The Social Network.
The teaser (which can be viewed below), is limited in detail, but conveys the essence of the power struggle that embodied Facebook during its conception in Mark Zuckerberg's dorm room.
Also referred to as "The Facebook Movie", the film is based in part on the book "The Accidental Billionaires", and was written by Aaron Sorkin and directed by David Fincher. The movie aims to convey the loyalty, jealousy and greed of Facebook's early collaborators - and a 'coming to terms' of a couple of young people on their journey of creating something bigger than they anticipated.
Some critics have questioned the subject matter as an appropriate ground-frame for a movie - but with Social Media consuming every part of the globe, it was only a matter of time before the movie-makers decided to scrape off the peaches and cream of some of the most influential movers of this generation, and find out what really made them tick.
The Social Network debuts in October 2010.
