The Social Network 

In the film, The Social Network the main character was Mark Zucherberg, the creator of Facebook. Throughout the film, we saw how mark created facesmash while he was drunk. After being dumped for being a douche to his ex-girlfriend. Mark hacked Harvard's servers to launch his website, and ended up crashing them. He was soon caught and was disciplined with six months of academic suspicion. A pair of rich twins approached him with an idea of creating a dating website and asked for his help. Mark accepted, but soon he started creating "the facebook" and paid no attention to their app. Once they saw Mark launched "the facebook" they soon, decided to sue him for stealing their idea. Mark said that they were sueing him because for once in their life their plans didn't work out. The film, related to the book, in a way, by showing how some people have a better chance than others because they have resources that others might not have. Just like the kids who went to the KIPP Academy so that they could get the help they needed.
