I don’t think anyone would watch college students cramming for hours just to finish their thesis. I really think The Social Network is both inaccurate, as well as false for the sake of entertainment and nothing’s wrong with that! If it’s Hollywood, you have to prioritize entertainment more than giving facts; like an art enthusiast prioritizing design over technicality.
