"The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" is based on the first installment of Sweden's best-selling "Millennium" trilogy, about a righteous journalist Mikel and a young female hacker Lisbeth Salander Involved in the investigation of an unsolved murder case that happened more than ten years ago.

In the original book, the author Stieg-Lachson (Stieg's text is interspersed with many satires and metaphors, exposing the social problems in Sweden, and also exposing the dark side of the country's history, society and gender politics/politics.

There is no doubt that the heroine Sarand is a very special character, she is the girl with the dragon tattoo in the title. The title of the original book is "Men Who Hate Women," and Steger points out that violence against women is a common phenomenon in Sweden, but it's never been recognized. So he created Salander.

She is not only full of personality, but also has experienced ups and downs, exuding a cold, gloomy and sharp dark temperament all over her body. When faced with the desperate plight of oppression, bullying and even rape, she was not knocked down, but stood up indomitably. , reborn in its own way. She's not a victim, never has been.

As a reasoning, the reason why "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" is so popular is that Lisbeth Salander is undoubtedly the core soul.

This set caused an uproar in northern Europe, and its influence was very extensive, and even caused a series of social aftermath. In 2009, it was remade into a film by Sweden, and it became the highest-grossing and most successful local film in the Nordic region in history. Sweden's eight-week championship, breaking the record for the longest weekly championship in Swedish film history, surpassing "Transformers 2" and becoming the annual champion of Denmark and Sweden.

Not only that, but the film also received blockbuster accolades at awards ceremonies in Sweden and Norway.

In addition to Salander, the actor Mikel is another core. Mikel can be said to be the incarnation of the original author Stig.

In real life, Stig is a writer and journalist who used to work for the Swedish Central News Agency and devotes himself to anti-French/Western/Sririan activities in his spare time. Due to his long-term commitment to exposing the wrongdoing of Swedish far-right organizations, he has been threatened and threatened with death to varying degrees over the years.

Mikel in the original book actively defends social justice and does not pursue personal fame and fortune. His private life is also facing troubles, but at the critical moment of implementing justice, he never softens. It can be said that all of Stig's dreams are concentrated. and persist.

Stig began to write the "Millennium" series in 2001 and finished it in 2004. Unfortunately, he died of a heart attack in November of the same year. Crazy, frustrating.

The Swedish version of "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" was a huge success even on a global scale. The $83 million box office was nothing in Hollywood, but it broke countless records in Europe, sparking various Fang's attention. Naturally, the United States has also put adaptation matters on the agenda.

In the last life, the American version of "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" was definitely under the spotlight. From the beginning of the preparatory stage, countless topics were gathered. In the end, David Fincher was in charge of the director, and the actor was the new 007 Daniel Cray. Danieg played, and Rooney Mara was the heroine.

Under the high expectations, the "Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" has not been able to reach the height of "social network". The media comprehensively rated 71 points, which can only be regarded as quite satisfactory. In the Oscars, it was only the best. Actress, Best Film Editing, and three other nominations for technical awards.

There is no doubt that David is a very good director, and the David Fincher-esque sternness and neatness throughout, give the film a powerful force, even darker, cooler, and more Nordic than the Swedish version. . However, David's shortcomings are also very obvious. He lacks sufficient control and excavation in the shaping of characters. This is the case with "social network", and the same is true of "Girl with Dragon Tattoo".

In David's version of "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo", the feminist theme as the core idea has been greatly weakened, adding a suspenseful and thrilling atmosphere. The overall style still continues his usual distinctiveness, but it lacks the shock and depth of the original version.

In fact, the script written by steven-z, who once wrote "Schindler's List", gave the two characters more room to play, aiming to enrich the characters and deepen the characters. , The gold medal screenwriter of "Gangs of New York", his writing skills are really good, but unfortunately, Daniel's performance is too stereotyped, and the rigid and rigid texture does not give the character more depth, and Rooney's performance is slightly overpowering Fierce, but not delicate enough.

In comparison, the original version continues the consistent style of European actors, which is more delicate and fuller, and wins in terms of acting skills and roles; while the David version is more stylized, harsher, and the characters are weaker, and the theme is also the same as the original idea. bias. Overall, the two versions are on par, however, the original is slightly better.

It's not just Renly's idea, the critics' opinion is consistent, too. The Swedish version scored 79 out of 10, higher than the American version.

As Andy said, Mikel is actually a character worth exploring slowly. What he reflects is the idealism and realistic struggle of the original author Stig.

Stig clearly knows how difficult and dangerous it is to overcome many difficulties and promote social change in contemporary society; How weak under the pressure of the machine, his life was repeatedly in danger.

Therefore, Stig gave Mikel absolute unshakable perseverance and determination, and at the same time endowed Mikel with inner pain and struggle, just like the Batman in "Batman: The Dark Knight" The dark knight, in order to To achieve justice, we have to bear the darkness and move forward with difficulty. This is an epic hero like the tragedy of ancient Greece.

In "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo", to be precise, in the "Millennium" series, although Mikel is the protagonist, Lisbeth takes away his style.

On the one hand, it is because Lisbeth has the most painful, dramatic and intense tragedies. She was raped in the first part, which gave the actors more room for performance; Grid put himself in a supporting position, he was the one who solved the clues, and Lisbeth was the one who rushed to the front line.

Therefore, it is really not easy for Mikel to be outstanding.

But in Renly's view, this is a character with countless possibilities and enormous potential. In David's version of the "Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" script, Mikel was given more pen and ink, focusing on showing Mikel's struggle and pain, which is worth exploring.

Renly carefully recalled the memories in his mind, but found that, whether it was the Swedish version or the American version, his image of Mikel was blurred, but he had a very deep impression of Lisbeth's image Noomi- It's the same with nrapae and Rooney-Mara.

Renly thought it was a lot of fun, he wasn't sure he could remember more of Mikel's acting information, and he wasn't sure if he would be able to dig out the depth of Mikel's character, but, he admitted, it was A very strange character.

More importantly, since Mikel is refracting Stig's self, Stig has made a lot of personal settings in terms of age and experience. At the time of writing, Stig himself was forty-six years old. Naturally, the same is true of Mikel's biological age, and his mental age will be even older.

This is also the biggest obstacle for Renly to challenge Mikel.

"Anyone who wants to participate in this movie can participate in it, right?" Renly's response was not unusual. Andy's interest in "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" is definitely not groundless.

As can be seen from the Swedish version, this film not only has a strong appeal in terms of box office, but also has the hope of achieving an excellent box office of over 100 million in North America like another work directed by David, "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button". achievements; but also has deep potential in the arts, fully equipped to go on a rampage during awards season.

The original movie made such a big noise, and the remake version is naturally attracting attention, not to mention Andy, it is estimated that half of Hollywood has become a sensation.

Andy paused for a while, then he laughed dumbly. Renly's reaction was definitely something he didn't expect, but in just a short conversation, Renly saw through the phenomenon and pointed to the essence. This wisdom is really admirable. .

"So, you've seen the original movie?" This was Andy's only thought. Renly shrugged noncommittally, and Andy didn't pursue it any further. Right when Renly had already seen the original, it would be better. However, it's easier to explain.

"Yes, this project is now attracting a lot of attention. Even Roger Ebert has expressed concern, not to mention the agents. The deal for Sony Columbia Pictures is really good." Andy nodded. Expressed his affirmation, "Paramount almost grabbed the copyright at the beginning, but unfortunately, the momentary hesitation fell into the hands of others."

"However, most of the eyes are now on the heroine. As I said, although this movie has two protagonists, the weight is almost on the heroine. Relatively speaking, the attention of the male protagonist is only Much lower." After a short pause, Andy seemed to remember something interesting, the smile in his eyes overflowed, and then he said with interest, with a hint of narrowness in his eyes.

"Almost all age-appropriate actresses are aiming for this role. So, if you can play it, doesn't that mean you're going to have a lot of fun in the future. It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."8 ), a better experience.
