The Farnsworth Invention July 23, 2010

TimeLine presents the Chicago premiere of Aaron Sorkin's 'The Farnsworth Invention,' directed by Nick Bowling. From the creator of 'A Few Good Men' and 'The West Wing' comes the story of two ambitious visionaries -- Philo T. Farnsworth, an Idaho farmboy, and David Sarnoff, head of RCA -- battling each other for the rights to one of the greatest inventions of all time: the television. Through corporate espionage, family tragedy, financial disaster and the thrill of discovery, these two larger-than-life men compete for fame and credit and become part of a decision that would change America, and eventually the world.
