The Inside Story of Facebook the Movie
- hugh3 16y agoThis several-months-old article doesn't add much, but I do like this line: Oh sure, moviemakers love hackers, the same way they love Magical Black Men and Rapping Grannies. Maybe one day magical black men and rapping grannies will get the proper in-depth treatment which they so richly deserve.
