The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo (Sw)
- Män Som Hatar Kvinnor
Engaging, suspenseful, well-acted, atmospheric, and technically well-made Swedish thriller, based on the first book in Stieg Larsson's award winning Millennium trilogy.
A special single screening of the first part of the Millenium Trilogy, the most successful thriller of 2009, is offered to re-acquaint patrons in order to prepare them for the UK Premiere of the second part – ‘The Girl who played with Fire’. The film is a miracle of taunt filmmaking and perfect casting. Clocking in at two hours and thirty minutes, it’s still far too short as you want it to go on and on.
Stockholm investigative journalist Mikael Blombvkist (Michael Nykvist) has just been sentenced to a three-month jail stint for having written about a financier’s offshore tax shelters. Still free while waiting for the set date, he is contacted by an industry tycoon, now retired and reclusive, who wants the journalist, now admired by the public for his ethics and professionalism, to see if he can find clues to the forty-year old unsolved murder of the tycoon’s niece. Blombvkist is helped in the strange quest on a strange island by a troubled girl, a goth hacker with piercings and tattoos, played by the absolutely extraordinary Noomi Rapace.
