‘The Social Network’ to Open at New York Film Festival
David Fincher’s new film about the social networking site Facebook has been chosen as the opening-night movie of the New York Film Festival, which begins Sept. 24. “The Social Network” is adapted from Ben Mezrich’s book “The Accidental Billionaires,” and chronicles the growth of Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg’s idea into a social-media giant. Scott Rudin, a producer, told the New York Times that “the movie leaves you to make up your own mind about what you feel about how Facebook was founded.”
