‘The King’s Speech’ and ‘The Social Network’ may be in a smackdown for best picture, but don’t tell Aaron Sorkin. The Oscar winner for adapted screenplay apparently has developed quite a friendship with ‘Speech’ scribe David Seidler (who won the Oscar for original screenplay).

‘I’m proud to say I’ve got a bromance going with David,’ Sorkin told reporters backstage. ‘I think it started when I asked around for his e-mail after I saw [his] movie.’ Pretty soon the two were e-mailing each other every few days and hobnobbing at awards shows in the U.S. and England. ‘I’ve come to love him very much.’
