The Social Network · written by Aaron Sorkin · 2010
Scene 7 of 189 · ≈ 1 min on screen · Act one
Mark Zuckerberg wants status and belonging Harvard's final clubs won't give him, so he builds a website that gives the world both — and loses his best friend and co-founder to the company he built to prove he mattered.
Mark at the campus bar: brilliant, status-obsessed, unable to read the room he's sitting in.
Mark bursts into Kirkland House and heads upstairs without acknowledging anyone.
Drunk and stung, Mark starts a blog post trashing Erica's looks and family name while cracking open a beer.
Billy Olson pitches rating Kirkland facebook photos against farm animals; Mark, blogging and drinking, latches onto the idea of comparing two people's hotness.
This scene
It resembles the kind of bus that would take you to the rental car place but on board are two-dozen COLLEGE GIRLS who are dressed for a party. Last minute make-up touch-ups are being done and a joint is being passed.
MARK (V.O.)
I think he’s on to something.
