Finally, got back to the Broadway to see a movie I'd been dying to see.
(73) Män som hatar kvinnor (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo) (2009): This Swedish film is based on a trilogy of books written by the late Stieg Larsson. The movies follows a shamed newspaperman as he tries to solve a 40-year-old missing persons case with the help of a female computer hacker. The movies feels like a made-for-television movie based on a novel by Danielle Steele or Sidney Sheldon, but is enhanced by the fact that its not hampered by content restrictions. One thing I really like about this movie is that it's the story that tells the tale. No elborate set pieces, no gonzo technology, not a million unnecessary explosions, etc. It's not a Hollywood production is what I'm getting it. It's smartly acted, cleverly constructed, and I'm so glad my schedule worked out so I could see it on the big screen. It was very much worth my time and I'd like to see it again before it leaves town. Go see this movie!
