Girl With The Dragon Tattoo Opening


We talked quite a bit about Girl With The Dragon Tattoo during our first podcast (Its a fantastic film, for those who haven't seen it), but we forgot to mention the absolutely incredible, and disturbing opening credits created by Blur featuring the excellent music by Trent Reznor.

The sequence features abstracted oil figures of  Lisbeth Salander (played by Rooney Mara, the "Girl withe Dragon Tatto") and Mikael Blomvkist (played by Daniel Craig) portrayed in an abstract manner dealing with their demons in a nightmare like sequence. For example, at around 1:50  you see manly hands coming up to Lisbeth's face before tearing her face to bits, representative of the terrible things that men have done to her in the past. I won't spoil it further, just go watch it!
