'Pirates Of Silicon Valley' To Air On TNT: Steve Jobs And Bill Gates Telepic Runs Again

First Posted: 10/06/11 02:51 PM ET   Updated: 12/06/11 05:12 AM ET

While all of Hollywood is reflecting on Steve Jobs' passing, TNT will air two broadcasts of the 1999 made-for-TV movie about the start of two of the most important tech companies of all time.

"Pirates of Silicon Valley" narrates the competitive beginnings of tech tycoons-to-be, Jobs and Bill Gates. Noah Wyle stars as the Apple visionary and Anthony Michael Hall as the PC genius.

The telepic - which to those who are unfamiliar, sounds like a dated "Social Network" - was written and directed by Martyn Burke and began, similar to the contemporary tech flick, as a best-selling book, "Fire in the Valley."
