In Stockholm, disgraced journalist Mikael Blomkvist is recovering from the legal and professional fallout of a libel suit brought against him by businessman Hans-Erik Wennerström, straining Blomkvist's relationship with his business partner and married lover, Erika Berger. Lisbeth Salander, a young, brilliant but asocial investigator and hacker, compiles an extensive background check on Blomkvist for the wealthy Henrik Vanger, who offers Blomkvist evidence against Wennerström in exchange for an unusual task: investigate the 40-year-old disappearance and presumed murder of Henrik's grandniece, 16-year-old Harriet. Every year, Vanger has received a framed pressed flower, the same type Harriet always gave him on his birthday before she disappeared, leading him to believe that Harriet's killer is taunting him. Blomkvist agrees, and moves into a cottage on the Vanger family estate on Hedestad Island. Salander's state-appointed guardian, Holger Palmgren, suffers a stroke and is replaced by Nils Bjurman, a sadist who controls Salander's finances and extorts sexual favors by threatening to have her institutionalized. Unaware she is secretly recording one of their meetings, Bjurman chains Salander to his bed and brutally rapes her. At their next meeting, Salander tasers Bjurman, binds him, anally rapes him with a metallic dildo, and tattoos "I'm a rapist pig" across his chest. Using the secret recording she made, she blackmails him into securing her financial independence and having no further contact with her; Christopher Plummer, Daniel Craig, Geraldine James, Goran Visnjic, Joely Richardson, Robin Wright, Rooney Mara, Stellan Skarsgard, Steven Berkoff, Yorick Van Wageningen; Rating: R; for brutal violent content including rape and torture, strong sexuality, graphic nudity, and language UR - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WqzYkqok72c ER -
