> "Farnsworth" is a fast-paced account of the events leading
> to the realization of one of the 20th Century's most
> influential inventions, the television. It’s 1929. Two
> ambitious visionaries race against each other to invent a
> device called “television.” Separated by two thousand
> miles, each knows that if he stops working, even for a
> moment, the other will gain the edge. Who will unlock the
> key to the greatest innovation of the 20th century: the
> ruthless media mogul, or the self-taught Idaho farm boy? The
> answer comes to compelling life in The Farnsworth Invention
> from Aaron Sorkin, creator of The West Wing, playwright of A
> Few Good Men and Golden Globe and Academy Award-winning
> writer for The Social Network.
