Go Sweden!


Movie Review:


Millénium, a movie based off the very popular crime/thriller book series by Stieg Larsson...a Swedish author.

I have yet to read the books, but now that I have seen the first film...I want to read all 3! The film was in Swedish then subtitled in French, but it's actually amazing how similar Swedish and English are...I could understand entire phrases!

The film takes place in..SWEDEN...obvs...and is following a journalist who gets a job with a rich family, called Vanger, to find a missing niece...Harriet. So the entire film is kind of a murder mystery, but very dark. The other main aspect is that of an extremely troubled girl, Lisbeth, who is a computer hacker and ends up helping the journalist on the case.


...this is a very vage discription, but all of you foreign film lovers should definitely check this one out if you can and if you can find it.


GO SWEDEN!
