First tell the story.
It is said that the original name of this book in Sweden was The men who hate women. After it was listed in the UK, the title became The girl with the dragon tatoo. No doubt the latter is more famous and more suspenseful. But judging from the book, it's not really important to get tattoos without tattoos. In fact, judging from the movie, apart from the close-up of the half-naked back body tattoo of the female upper and lower body, I am afraid that this tattoo is only the same as the heroine’s nose ring, just a sign of'rebellion'.
The beginning of the book spread out very slowly, so that 20% of the time I watched it, the subject still didn't appear. Slowly tells how a famous financial'little detective' in the press went from a lawsuit to a crime investigation commissioned by the CEO of a large consortium in the name of writing a family history. It can be seen that the author of the original book is a financial journalist, so Mikael Blomkvist in his works also carries the distrust and unkindness of financial journalists to large consortia that are unique to financial journalists. There is no explanation in the movie. In fact, Henrik originally ordered Blomkvist to accept the commission, saying that he would provide him with first-hand information to defeat Wennerstrom. From the beginning of the movie and the book, you can find that the movie actually deviates from the original. Of course, as far as viewing is concerned, movies have their own strengths. Another point of the movie that deviates from the reporter's keenness and professional characteristics is that the actor did not insist on the content of the contract to be tight-lipped about the progress of the case, and even revealed key information to Martin when the facts of the case are unclear-this is an adaptation of the movie. , I think it is also the biggest failure. In the second half of the book, the original book contains a lot of pen and ink describing how the entire Wennerstrom was inflated in the stock market, how to use overseas accounts to transfer property, and how to hide people's eyes, and how Salander hacked to Wennerstrom bank accounts all over the world to steal—— It makes me dazzled, and it is rare to see'documentary literature' in novels. Another example that can reflect the writing habits of financial journalists is the case of several female victims, each time, background, and character. Many self-reports are like watching a documentary. They are very coherent, and seldom deliberately pave the way and make falsehoods. This is also reflected in the movie. For example, key information is found from financial data and corporate activity records, as if following a reporter to find financial clues, very plain and trivial.
The original titled The men who hate women attaches great importance to the relationship between the two sexes: for example, how the male protagonist and the like-minded partner of Millemium magazine (the one with caring eyes at the beginning of the movie), how do they have their own families? Keep the relationship between the lover and comrade-in-arms that is close to each other; for example, how the protagonist wins the trust of a non-social girl step by step; for example, how the protagonist and Cecilia have a leg. . . At the end of the book, our tattooed girl, who has always been sympathetic to others and even a bit anti-social, became jealous. As she turned and left, my heart was broken.
Let's talk about movies.
The movie makes the clues more intuitive, especially the information presented by a large number of photos, the movie is clear at a glance, and the book uses a lot of pen and ink to describe the information gradually discovered from the photos. However, the two-hour movie is still too short, confessing all the necessary plots (even permutations and combinations, and splicing some plots), but there is no ups and downs in the book, the whole truth emerges too smoothly, as if the time and place are favorable. Used it.
Tired to write. Finally, some interesting information is revealed. The book explains that the male protagonist was naked when he was being abused. When reading the book, there are many descriptions of this paragraph. Some plots are more difficult to imagine. Seeing this section of the movie made me feel helpless. Waiting for the'critical' plot. . . . Halo, how is a complete image. . . Sacrifice the plot too much!
