I was just informed that Girl With a Dragon Tattoo is now a movie.... apparently I live in a box. I am excited to hear that it was in fact produced in Sweden, and not adapted by Americans. It has been receiving quite good reviews by all the biggie newspapers.... Washington Post, Boston Globe and Herald, NY Times, L.A. Times.
Movie adaptations of foreign literature can only help our cause here! It is interesting that the average American is much more likely to pay the exorbitant movie ticket prices these days rather than pick up a good read (this being social commentary with absolutely no basis other than my own observations, but it seems plausible enough).
