Last month marked the release of the trailer for The Social Network, the new movie chronicling the development of Facebook. Admittedly, the trailer does leave one with some doubts as to how interesting or suspenseful such a film could possibly be ("The site got twenty-two hundred hits in two hours?" "Thousand. Twenty-two thousand."). But the film was written by Aaron Sorkin, the auteur best known for The West Wing. Although Sorkin has not always been reliable (the late, not-so-great Studio 60 pops to mind), his involvement is a reason for many fans of sharp writing and clever dialogue to keep an eye on The Social Network.
