It's a great series if you like mysteries, I can't help but think the writer was taken out by certain ultraconservative elements (if you're following the Holly Greig story in Scotland you'll understand) - the title in Sweden I believe translates as Men who Hate Women, its a very progressive work, but of course we English speakers wouldn't respond to that so they dumbed it down. I wasn't going to see the movie, but a friend bought me ticket to the 2nd movie which plays one night at Lincoln Center next week so I have to see it. I really felt a film was unnecessary. Annoyingly, Hollywood is making a version and I know they'll ruin it. Its inevitable.
