The script sparkled with craftsmanship. Telling the story the way they did, I was a big fan. When I saw the film, I felt the script and dialogue were electric. And that first scene... wow. Aaron Sorkin has always been a master script writer. This may be his best work thus far. (And I'm not a fan of his politics or lifestyle. I simply think the dude knows how to write.)
