The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets Nest

We just watched the last of what has been well dubbed the "thriller of the decade' by the Daily Mirror.  I bought this Daniel Alfredson film in DVD Blue Ray combo at Costco for $24.  We'd watched, better still, been mesmerized by the first two episodes of th Stieg Larsson trilolgy starring Noomi Rapace as Goth Lisbeth Salander and Michael Nyqvist as journalist Mikael Blomkvist.  The movie was released in Denmark in 2009.  The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, and The Girl Who Played with Fire are other two parts of the trilogy.  It is an amazing political intrigue with crime and drama and hope despite all odds.  Truth is stranger than fiction and the subject matter has come to light repeatedly too often in recent years in too many countries.
