'Something for everyone', Krystina?
And those three original Swedish language films? First one was my film of the year. The second and third were awful. Hated them.
That's the good thing about this Hollywood trilogy; there's a real opportunity to do the books justice. Colour me excited.
Good article, dudes.
Well
except your ten-year-old niece. Don't take your ten-year-old niece. But actually, yeah - what often gets missed in the hype is that the plot is really secondary to in-depth character studies - of Salander, of Blomkvist, of the Vangers - and much more in thrall to a lot of 1970s' New Hollywood in that sense (eg. The Conversation, and what was that Apocalypse Now one? ;)) That is, of course, what makes it a brilliant story.
Think it's also important to point out that the 'original' Swedish movies were, in fact, made for TV as a mini-series and so a bit softer (and cut-down). So this is the first 'true' film adaptation, I suppose.
