Social Network Wins Three Oscars

People were quick to name The Social Network the movie of the year, making some pretty bold pronouncements for the film, and bandying about titles like Citizen Kane a good deal. The Academy, it seems, didn’t agree. Not quite. 

The David Fincher-helmed Facebook film ended the night with three awards–Adapted Screenplay (Aaron Sorkin), Film Editing (Angus Wall and Kirk Baxter), and Original Score (Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross). The film got shut out of some of the bigger categories, however, failing to nab Best Picture, Directing (Fincher), Actor in a Lead Role (Jesse Eisenberg), Cinematography (Jeff Cronenweth), and Sound Mixing (Michael Semanick and Mark Weingarten).
Hopefully this all means that Mark Zuckerberg did well in the Facebook Oscar Poll. The guy can certainly use the cash.
