sean parker
the same year, garfield co-starred opposite jesse eisenberg in "the social network", a drama based on the founders of facebook. on his character, garfield remarked that "no one knows who eduardo saverin is, and i don't either. of course, the fact he's a real-life human being, breathing on this earth somewhere, creates a whole new dimension to my approach because you feel a greater sense of responsibility". initially, the film's director, david fincher, had met garfield under the auspices of him playing mark zuckerberg, having been referred to him by mark romanek. however, fincher did not like garfield for the part as he found garfield's "incredible emotional access to his kind of core humanity" better tailored for the role of saverin. garfield's performance was very well received; he earned wider recognition and numerous nominations, including bafta nominations for best actor in a supporting role and rising star, as well as a golden globe nomination for best performance in a supporting role. mark kermode of the bbc expressed his surprise that garfield had been overlooked for an academy award nomination, opining that "everyone knows he's one of the very best things about "the social network"." writing in "the wall street journal", joe morgenstern thought the role was portrayed with "great subtlety and rueful charm". "rolling stone" said garfield delivered "a vulnerability that raises the emotional stakes in a movie", and proclaimed: "keep your eyes on garfield — he's shatteringly good, the soul of a film that might otherwise be without one."
