13 modern directors and their masterpieces

5) David Fincher – The Social Network (2010)

Trending

David Fincher’s The Social Network tells the story of Facebook’s creation, but it’s really about power, betrayal, and loneliness. The movie focuses on Mark Zuckerberg, played brilliantly by Jesse Eisenberg. He’s smart, awkward, and ruthless. The script, written by Aaron Sorkin, is full of sharp dialogue. Conversations move fast, and the characters talk like they’re competing. The dark, muted visuals match the story’s tone. It’s not a movie about coding; it’s about how relationships break down when success is on the line.
