“The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo has opened, and there are plenty of reasons to praise the performances of Daniel Craig, Stellan Skarsgard and Rooney Mara…but the stand out of the cast is really the city of Stockholm — and the Swedish style in particular. It’s the dead of winter in Sweden and whole cast is obviously freezing all the time — but they look so good in their cold weather clothes. No hideous Patagonia shells or marshmallow down puffy jackets. It’s all sleek wool top coats, tasteful tweeds, simple wool dresses, some fantastic shapeless leather get ups for Mara and a very good corduroy blazer on a very bad man. So where do you go to get that Millennium series chic winter look? If you’re not interested in sifting through H&M’s new “Dragon Tattoo Collection” it’s time for your very own Stockholm style pilgrimage.” Read the whole article by Charles Runnette on NewNowNext>>

Rooney Mara as Lisbeth Salander on W‘s February 2011 cover!!
David Fincher, the darkly obsessive director of Fight Club and The Social Network, is making the Hollywood version of The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo.
In the February issue of W we get an exclusive first look from the set of the year’s most anticipated film.
Fincher’s film departs dramatically from the book: Mikael Blomkvist is more gentlemanly, Salander is more aggressive—and the ending has been completely altered. What do you think about that? And who do you think makes the better “Girl with the dragon tattoo” – Rooney Mara or Noomi Rapace?
The Millennium Trilogy by Stieg Larsson has sold over 50 million copies (and still counting…) world wide.
