Steve Jobs
There are several movies based on the old tech landscape that are easy to stream. Some are better than others, so I’m including a few of the better ones.
The Aaron Sorkin-written, Danny Boyle-directed production was originally adapted from the 2011 biography of the same name, written by Walter Isaacson. It’s got big names as cast including Michael Fassbender, Kate Winslet, and Seth Rogan, to name a few, and it’s got enough Sorkin-esque dialogue to fill up a several-page spreadsheet with quippy banter.
Michael Fassbender might not look much like Jobs, but he still does a good job of replicating the Apple founder’s mannerisms and style of speech. Though it centers around three of Apple’s big product launches, ending around 1998, it’s a shame we don’t get to see more of Apple’s bigger scandals.
Character studies of the since-passed tech monolith that was Steve Jobs can only do so much to really identify what has been the outcome of Jobs’ often weird, often abusive habits with both his designers and employees. Still, it adds a layer of complexity to a story that most only understand from the Apple founder’s famous keynotes and minimalist commercials.
