Topic > Behind the Digital Revolution: Steve Jobs' Journey

Sorkin's signature voice is clearly present in the dialogues, but not at all intrusive. In the way the story is told, Sorkin structured Steve Jobs much like a play. In its execution it is not theatrical at all. It is certainly an achievement and a wonder to behold. Previously, I used the term "artistic" for a reason. As anyone familiar with Danny Boyle's work knows, while the stories and emotions surrounding his films are all too real and grounded, there are often moments throughout his filmmaking that enter a fantasy realm. And as in other examples of his work, rather than taking you out of the story, this approach keeps you engaged. My praise for the film comes with a warning, however: If you're expecting a straightforward account of Jobs' life, you won't find it here. That said, I'm willing to bet that in Steve Jobs you won't find a better account of the life and times of Steve Jobs that captures the spirit of a complicated and complex man. Steve Jobs opens in October in select theaters with a couple of wide releases. weeks later.Photo credit: Universal
