On the occasion of its 15th anniversary—and its 2024 addition to the National Film Registry—we look back at this Oscar-winning film that explores the origins of Facebook, starring Jesse Eisenberg as Mark Zuckerberg. The film will be preceded by a 1976 educational short about computers in everyday life, directed by Yale alumnus Sheldon Renan and starring Terry McGovern. Together, these films offer a unique perspective on how we viewed computers in the past—and how we understand them today. Print and DCP from the Yale Film Archive. Co-presented with the Yale Library Software Preservation and Emulation unit with support from the Alfred P. Sloan and Andrew W. Mellon Foundations.Screened in conjunction with the Hanke Gallery exhibit “Remembering Amnesia: Rebooting the First Computerized Novel” on view in the Sterling Memorial Library through March 2.
