Favorite Film 4/∞ - The Social Network (2010)

“You are probably going to be a very successful computer person. But you’re going to go through life thinking that girls don’t like you because you’re a nerd. And I want you to know, from the bottom of my heart, that that won’t be true. It’ll be because you’re an asshole.”

I’ve always been kind of a loner, I avoided other people like they were zombies; even before they were zombies. Now that they are all zombies, I kinda miss people.

• JESSE EISENBERG: People on the street say mean things to me.
• INTERVIEWER: Like what?
• JESSE EISENBERG: I get called Napoleon Dynamite because I have curly hair. I live in New York City and I ride a bicycle. I always bike down 9th Avenue and there’s this kid who goes to school there named Abraham. Every time I pass him, he calls me Napoleon Dynamite. He screams it out and his friends laugh. That was a fine movie but I wasn’t in it.
• INTERVIEWER: What do you say back?
• JESSE EISENBERG: I say, “Please Abraham, I’m not that man.”

I tell people he’s my husband

• INTERVIEWER: And why are you not on Facebook?
• JESSE: I'm not on Facebook because I do something that's occasionally very public--like this movie, like other movies--and people write about me on the internet already, and it's mortifying to me that people that I don't know or haven't met are writing about me online and I don't want to contribute to that, I guess.
• INTERVIEWER: You've presumably seen the film [The Social Network], I mean, do you watch films that you're in?
• JESSE: Yeah, I usually see a movie I've been in once. You know, a lot of times because you're kind of forced to watch it; it'd be inappropriate to leave. It's uncomfortable for me to see it because--well, primarily because it's strange to see your face from a different angle because you're so used to looking in a mirror then you see your face from a different angle because the camera is not always directly on you...and it's just a little bit jarring?

Time to bring back some TSN…
