If ‘Social networking’ site ‘Facebook’ has given a new meaning to the world by showing people a new way to do networking and connections, it also fattened its worth to $41 billion by November 2010. It is a success on any scale but to put the same on screen was always going to be tough but the film did well to write another success story on the name of Facebook.

‘The Social Network’ is all about formation of ‘Facebook’ and Lawsuits happened in the process. The film was a stellar at the 68th Golden Globe by winning the ‘Best Drama’ and two other top prizes Best Director ‘David Fincher’ and its writer ‘Aaron Sorkin’.

However, the ‘Best Dramatic Actor’ went to ‘Colin Firth’ for ‘The King’s Speech’ and ‘Natalie Portman’ bellied ‘Best Actress’ Award for ‘Black Swan’.

The evening wrapped itself in emotions when final award of the evening for Best Movie Drama was presented by ‘Michael Douglas’ who is treated for throat cancer. In his short speech he said, “There’s got to be an easier way to get a standing ovation”.

But, the limelight of the evening was stolen by Ms. Portman, who wasn’t black or white but in pink for the expected prize for her act as a tortured ballerina in ‘Black Swan’.  The kind of appreciation the film has received so far and is still surging at the box-office makes it a strong contender in the coming week’s Oscar.
