The Social Network Trailer

In 2003, Harvard University student Mark Zuckerberg created Facebook. "The Social Network" is the story of how it came in to existence.

Today the first full length trailer has been released and it looks amazing. Definitely on my list of movies to see. 

The music for this trailer is just as impressive, an excellent cover of Radiohead's "Creep" by the Belgium girls choir, Scala which I can't stop listening to.

 Jesse Eisenberg plays Mark Zuckerberg (and I'm guessing they're both Jewish) with Justin Timberlake in a lead role as a friend of Mark's.

Not only that, but the book also offers life lessons learned from years behind the bar.

While continuing to honor the importance of a finely crafted button-down oxford and the indispensable pinpoint, the design team at Gitman dusted off old line books to curate an authentic interpretation of the past by selectively appropriating their favorite fabrics and having them remade"
