HBO built its name off of the movies that it was able to bring to its premium cable channel, and that hasn’t changed now that the service has extended its focus to streaming as Max.
In this month alone, Max is offering subscribers such films as Black Swan, Elizabethtown, all of the Harry Potter movies, the Infernal Affairs trilogy, The Thomas Crown Affair, and many more. But for us, the one movie that you have to watch on Max in April is The Social Network , a 2010 drama that chronicles the founding of Facebook.
Related It’s one thing for Zuckerberg to sabotage the Winklevoss twins, both of whom are played by Armie Hammer. That was underhanded, but the film doesn’t invite the audience to feel any sympathy for the whiny brothers. But Zuckerberg so casually betrays his friends and partners that he seems almost inhuman.
Justin Timberlake’s Sean Parker appears to be the one encouraging Zuckerberg to make these morally dubious decisions. And yet even Parker is eventually discarded by Zuckerberg when he’s no longer useful. Since Timberlake is an actual rock star, he lends some of that aura to Parker, who was known for co-founding Napster.
But when the story is this entertaining, few people are going to care that it’s not 100% historically accurate. There’s even a brilliant bookend to the entire film, as the story of Facebook begins with Zuckerberg getting dumped by Erica Albright , and it ends with Zuckerberg attempting to “friend” Albright on Facebook while constantly refreshing the page to see if she responded.
