Guess What?! I Went To See The Social Network . . .
So I went to see the movie, “The Social Network” (based on Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg) last night and I’ve got to tell you….It’s crazy to see ME, Erica Albright being played in a movie! Although watching my character on screen is somewhat bitter sweet, it did bring back many awesome memories. Oh do I miss my college years because looking back, I feel so old!! lol
So now that I’ve seen the movie, I can definitely tell you that there are a lot of truths to it and a lot was made up by Hollywood! It really is based on a true story. My character, Erica Albright, is in the very first scene of the movie and Mark Zuckerberg and I did break-up over dinner. I really don’t think that he went home and was so upset that he started writing theFacebook, but I do not know for sure. All I can say is that night, Mark created such a stir on his campus that I heard all about it on MY campus!
As for the second scene of me at dinner with my friends, that is partially true. I WAS at dinner with my friends but I never blew Mark off. It cracks me up that Hollywood has to make up the most non-significant stories to make the movie that much better.
What do you think…do I look like the girl that played me on Facebook?
Yours Truly,
Are you sure that the second scene did not really happen?
If you are true, then he would not have expanded Facebook.
I would like thank you for being a person who really instilled Mark with a fire to expand Facebook. What do you do, these days?
I tried Googling a number of times. But, all I could find was the pics and URL’s which linked me to the actress who gave life to your role in ‘The Social Network’.
It would be nice to hear from you.
Love,
