Daniel Pemberton: 1 line craft ×1

  1. craft (craft): Steve Jobs → Daniel Pemberton. Pemberton's score is singled out as incredible among the film's strengths.
    “Incredible score by Daniel Pemberton.”

Danny Boyle: 1 line craft ×1

  1. craft (craft): Steve Jobs → Danny Boyle. Boyle does the most he can with what is essentially a stage play, with the act two intercut.
    “I think Boyle is doing the absolute most he can do with a script that is more or less a stage play.”
    The Big Picture · Aaron Sorkin Top 5s and ‘The Trial of the Chicago 7’ · 0:55:55 · Sean Fennessey (0.70 sure it was them)

Ferrari: 1 line craft ×1

  1. craft (craft): Ferrari → Steve Jobs. Steve Jobs did the compression idea best among recent biopics, and Mann's compressed 1957 setting for Ferrari is ingenious.
    “Steve Jobs obviously had, maybe, maybe did the best job of this by kind of splitting the, the atom”
    The Big Picture · ‘Ferrari’ and Top Five Michael Mann Movies · 0:15:43 · Chris Ryan (0.40 sure it was them)

Jeff Daniels: 1 line craft ×1

  1. craft (craft): Steve Jobs → Jeff Daniels. The Daniels and Fassbender intercut compresses a therapy breakthrough about control into two minutes.
    “The Steve Jobs character has like a 3 year therapy breakthrough in under 2 minutes”
    The Big Picture · Aaron Sorkin Top 5s and ‘The Trial of the Chicago 7’ · 0:58:35 · Amanda Dobbins (0.65 sure it was them)

Katherine Waterston: 1 line people ×1

  1. people (people): Katherine Waterston → Steve Jobs. Waterston was in Steve Jobs, another Fassbender collaboration.
    “Like, I like her in Steve Jobs, another Fastbender collab.”

Michael Fassbender: 1 line people ×1

  1. people (people): Steve Jobs → Michael Fassbender. Fassbender gives a menacing, dark performance that makes Jobs's failures off-putting.
    “there was something very menacing about his performance”
    The Big Picture · Aaron Sorkin Top 5s and ‘The Trial of the Chicago 7’ · 0:57:40 · Amanda Dobbins (0.60 sure it was them)

Seth Rogen: 1 line career ×1

  1. career (career): Seth Rogen → Steve Jobs. The 08-to-Steve-Jobs run for Rogen stands up against the great actor runs.
    “the 15, like, up to the Steve Jobs run for Rogan is actually sneaky”
    The Rewatchables · ‘This Is the End’ With Bill Simmons, Chris Ryan, and Craig Horlbeck · 0:02:32 · Bill Simmons (0.40 sure it was them)

The Trial of the Chicago 7: 1 line theme ×1

  1. theme (theme): The Trial of the Chicago 7 → Steve Jobs. Both ask whether the result was worth how people were treated, and how change is made.
    “But that same idea, that sort of like, was it worth it, idea, is in a lot of his other work.”
    The Big Picture · Aaron Sorkin Top 5s and ‘The Trial of the Chicago 7’ · 1:00:49 · Sean Fennessey (0.60 sure it was them)

  2. people (shared writer): The Social Network → Steve Jobs. Steve Jobs is set aside as a Sorkin script written after The Social Network, so it does not count as a successor.

Fun items about it

  1. fun, about Steve Jobs: Seth Rogen as Wozniak should have won an Oscar.
    “It's absurd to me that Seth Rogan was not nominated for an Oscar.”

  2. fun, about Steve Jobs: Kate Winslet has more of a Polish accent in the later sequences than the first; a filming-order theory.
    “I don't totally understand why she has a Polish accent in the future, but not in the past.”
