I suspect that the denouement in the trial and the performance by Blomkvist's sister lacks something in translation to the screen. We're going to see it on Sunday.

I suspect a lot of nuance wasn't just lost in the translation to the screen but also from Swedish to English.

I read most of it on the plane back from PV and I laughed outloud at the performance of the baddies in spaces. I think Larsson was making some points about his opinion of the Swedish Security forces - even though, at the end of the day, they're actually heroes.
