The foreign movie I chose for the film analysis individual report was a Swedish movie named The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2009). This movie was about a journalist, Mikael Blomkvist and a young female hacker, Lisbeth Salander who teamed up to search for a woman, Harriet Vanger who was missing or dead for the past forty years. The movie begins with a scene in which an older man is crying at the receipt of framed flowers. This man is described to be a billionaire named Henrik Vanger, Harriet Vanger’s uncle who explains that Harriet disappeared from a family gathering on Children’s Day about forty years ago off of Vanger’s estate located Hedeby island near Hedestadt, several hours from Stockholm, Sweden. Although, the police reports indicate that the body was never found, her uncle is convinced that Harriet was murdered and that the killer is a member of his very own “tightly knit but dysfunctional” family. This represented most Swedish families as Sweden is a relationship-oriented society. Henrik hires Lisbeth and Mikael to further investigate the case. They soon begin to link Harriet’s disappearance to a number of monstrous murders that were committed which are later linked to biblical passages from the book of Leviticus. (Kuehl 1990)
