About the episode

Sean and Amanda return to continue their yearlong project of listing the 25 best movies of the 21st century so far. Today, they discuss David Fincher’s The Social Network, the era-defining study of the internet. They make the claim that this is their generation’s Citizen Kane, explain why it is a comfort movie about everything that is horrible, and crown Jesse Eisenberg for delivering one of the defining performances of the century.

Hosts: Sean Fennessey and Amanda Dobbins
