The Social Network: Aaron Sorkin, Facebook Film Stars

We talk with Aaron Sorkin and the stars of “The Social Network”—the big new movie about Facebook.

For a generation of Americans – and far beyond – Facebook is the platform of life. Social life, relationships, identity, everything. The story of its founding just six years ago - of founder, Harvard undergrad Mark Zuckerberg, and Facebook’s wild beginning - is, in a way, the creation myth of an era.

Next week, it hits the big screen in a new movie that tells the story. It’s called “The Social Network." Its writer, "West Wing" genius Aaron Sorkin, is with us. So are the film's stars.
