Hi. I don’t like Aaron Sorkin. What else do you want from me. Nicole Kidman puts in the tremendous effort expected from her as one of the greats of her age; I appreciate the work. I do not appreciate anything else. Especially Aaron Sorkin.
Read my professional dislike of Aaron Sorkin at work in my review of Being the Ricardos, posted to Paste Magazine.
But Sorkin is such a great writer!
And such a bad director! If memory serves, there’s a behind-the-scenes bit on THE SOCIAL NETWORK where David Fincher, in short, tells Aaron Sorkin that “the problem with the script is you,” which I think is hilarious. I just want someone other than Sorkin to direct his own scripts.
