During the chase scene; when the camera is pointing back towards Lisbeth, her face is lit by the glow of the motorcycle's instrument cluster (speedometer & odometer). But when the camera switches to her point of view; the dials are dark and not lit up. See more »
I liked both the Swedish version and the US version...I think both are great in their own right. Mara and Craig bring a very interesting chemistry to this version that I really enjoyed. The noir-esque feel of the film is really cool. The soundtrack is killer (Trent Reznor)! Worth a watch if you haven't seen it already
