Year: 1999
Cast: Noah Wyle(Steve Jobs), Anthony Michael Hall(Bill Gates)
Doesn't everyone want to know how to be like Bill Gates?
Great depiction of the rise to power of Microsoft headed by Bill Gates. Not since Weird Science and The Breakfast Club have I seen Anthony Michael Hall (Bill Gates) do such a great job acting. Casting Noah Wyle as the beaten Steve Jobs, head of Apple Computers, was as brilliant as the Hall casting decision. This is a must see picture as it shows how Bill Gates "borrowed" the whole concept of Windows from Steve Jobs, and turned it into his own program to monopolize the world of computer programming. Although I am 100% on the side of Mr. Gates, after watching this movie, I now know how he became as powerful as he now is.
NOTE - Great dramatic version of the rise of Apple and Microsoft. I remember watching the commercial and rented it. This goes deeper into the stories of the two computer masterminds. I watch this at least once a week.
