December 21st. Mark your calendar. The much anticipated movie, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo hits theaters. Maybe I will go the first night. (join me?) I can barely wait.
The books: The trilogy by Stieg Larsson is a roller coaster of a story - one book runs like a train of suspense into the next. After finishing the first, I immediately ran to the bookstore to buy the next. No joke. Each book is intelligent, brilliant, and suspenseful. The only downside - I want more! (And, sadly, the author died recently.) You still have time to read the books..hurry.
The movie: The buzz is everywhere. Most talked about is the metamorphosis Rooney Mara underwent to become the heroine, Lisbeth Salander. And to be honest, she is exactly what I pictured in my mind as I was reading. Read about Ms. Mara and her role in the November issue of Vogue. {you can borrow my copy if you'd like ;)
Tricia
PS: a little trivia..when he was just fifteen, Stieg Larsson witnessed the rape of a young girl. He never forgave himself for not helping her. The name of the girl was Lisbeth.
