Should have been a contender

Rating: 9/10 (31 August 2017)

The King's Speech rode the crest of a sentimental wave at the Oscars, and I wonder if the presenter read the wrong winner. Well, at the very least The Social Network should have won Best Picture but I guess it was too gritty and politically incorrect compared to the politically correct and soft King's Speech if you know what I mean.
The performances were incredibly powerful and insightful, and very operatic in a Sorkin kind of way which we expect from the master of the written word.
Perhaps there should be motion pictures based on the rise and fall of MySpace, Flickr (!), del.icio.us, Google+, Digg, Google Wave.
