The first two films based on Stieg Larsson's novels are available on
Netflix and are well worth the trouble to watch, but make sure you
watch them in chronological order. The Girl with The Dragon Tattoo
should be viewed first. Lisbeth Salander is my hero. The trailers can
be viewed here:

 The culture corner is bursting with creativity, from film noir

 With the Dragon Tattoo; Peter Byrne's examination of the unstable
 afterlife and metamorphosis of artist Paul Gauguin; Fabio De Propris's
 look at the world-wide embrace of American pop culture, which lives on
 even while the country's clout diminishes at home and abroad; and le
 coin français, with offerings from Marie Rennard, Christian Cottard,
 Simone Alié-Daram, and Alfred Jarry. We conclude with the poetry of
 Guido Monte and Maxwell Clark, and as always, your letters.

Yes, I saw this the other day as an award screener and recommend it 
highly. I have resisted the Stieg Larsson hoopla since it reminds me too 
much of the Harry Potter deal but the movie really is quite good and 
even makes me want to read the novel.
