15th anniversary of David Fincher's coldly captivating adaptation of Stieg Larsson's international bestseller.
Forty years after the mysterious disappearance of teenaged Harriet Vanger, the grand-uncle of the missing girl (Christopher Plummer) recruits investigative journalist Mikael Blomkvist (Daniel Craig) to reopen the cold case, and, after teaming with a glowering, gothy hacker, Lisbeth Salander (Rooney Mara), who’s freshly wriggled out from under the thumb of her sexually abusive legal guardian, Blomkvist’s search will uncover psychopathic CEOs, unreformed Nazi sympathizers, and a rot spreading through the highest echelons of Swedish society.
In Fincher’s steady hands, Larsson’s posthumously published bestseller becomes a coolly elegant thriller made with almost surgical precision, entrancing from the viscous nightmare of its title sequence onward.
