This one of the best movies I have seen this year. The story is interesting - although I don't know how 'true' it is - and the dialogue is very very good. In this scene, facebook founder Zuckerberg is being sued by three former associates. Their lawyer asks him a question at 0.26. Listen to Zuckerberg's response. The dialogue in the movie is very fast, so you might have to listen quite a few times.
