Hello, my fellow Hivers.
Hope y'all are having a great day.
Today I want to share a movie about the man who revolutionized Apple and grew it into one of the most distinguished multinational tech giants that it is today. For the past many years, products and services of Apple have been used to transform the world.
They've got different ranges of products now that helps us stay connected, be productive, and get entertained. So, the movie that I'm gonna present today portrays the life of Steve Jobs ( Co-founder, Chairman, and CEO of Apple) and his journey that eventually led to the company's success.

The movie is titled ‘Steve Jobs’ and was released in 2015. This movie covers 14 years (1984–1998) in the life of Apple Inc.
Steve Jobs is portrayed by Michael Fassbender, with Kate Winslet as Joanna Hoffman and Seth Rogen, Katherine Waterston, Michael Stuhlbarg, Jeff Daniels in supporting roles.
Well, I've always been a fan of Steve Jobs and so to me, this movie was an exhilarating watch. In my opinion, the film was a bit fast-paced but it did seem to have done justice to how Steve Jobs is as a person. Well, that’s at least how I portray him to be after I read his autobiography. Michael Fassbender absolutely slayed it. He depicted an accurate representation even when it came to replicating his personality. The flashback scenes in the movie also gave us further details into his way of life.
Here are a few shots from the movie that were taken from the film -
