Actually, it’s the Millennium Trilogy, but what could be better than the original? Not the Daniel Craig version but two additional hours of the original Swedish version…
The Dragon Tattoo Trilogy contains more than two hours of additional footage not seen in the theatrical versions of the original Swedish films. Amassing a total of 9 hours of story content and presented in 6 parts, this complete version of the international hit series restores notable characters and subplots from Stieg Larsson’s best-selling novels.

btw, if you’re a Stieg Larsson fan did you know he died before any of these books were published and that there’s a fourth book on his old laptop which is an object of contention between his father and brothers on one hand, and his significant other on the other. Seriously! The drama around the estate is almost as good as the book!
Larsson died 9 November 2004 in Stockholm at the age of 50 of a heart attack after climbing seven flights of stairs to his office because the lift was not working.[15] There were rumours that his death was in some way induced, because of death threats received as editor of Expo, but these have been denied by Eva Gedin, his Swedish publisher.[16] Stieg Larsson is interred at the Högalid church cemetery in the district of Södermalm in Stockholm.
In May 2008, it was announced that a 1977 will, found soon after Larsson’s death, declared his wish to leave his assets to the Umeå branch of the Communist Workers League (now the Socialist Party). As the will was unwitnessed, it was not valid under Swedish law, with the result that all of Larsson’s estate, including future royalties from book sales, went to his father and brother.[17][18] His long term partner Eva Gabrielsson,[19] who found the will, has no legal right to the inheritance, sparking controversy between her and his father and brother. Reportedly, the two never married because, under Swedish law, couples entering into marriage are required to make their addresses (at the time) publicly available; marrying would have been a security risk.[20] Owing to his reporting on extremist groups and the death threats he had received, the couple had sought and been granted masking of their addresses, personal data and identity numbers from public records, to make it harder for others to trace them; this kind of “identity cover” was integral to his work as a journalist and would have been difficult to bypass if the two had married or become registered partners.[citation needed]
An article in Vanity Fair magazine discusses Gabrielsson’s dispute with Larsson’s relatives, which has also been well covered in the Swedish press. She claims the author had little contact with his father and brother and requests the rights to control his work so it may be presented in the way he would have wanted.[21] Larsson’s story was featured on the 10 October 2010 segment of CBS News Sunday Morning. In this segment Larsson’s family claims the fourth and as yet unpublished book is actually the fifth book.[22]
