Based on Stieg Larsson's third novel, The Girl Who Kicked The Hornet's Nest is a literary work adapted to film. Lisbeth Salander (Rapace) is recovering in a hospital and awaiting trial for three murders when she is released. Mikael Blomkvist (Nyqvist), Salander's friend and Millennium's publisher, must prove her innocence, but Lisbeth must be willing to share the details of her sordid experiences with the court. (Gary Reber)
