Somehow Rooney Mara doesn't seem to fit as Salander. She's too tall for one. She doesn't possess the 'edge' of the character in the story. Lisbeth Salander is a misfit. A thin and strange mystery that cannot easily be sounded. Her description by Larsson is a woman who is barely five feet tall, inaccessible, brilliant. The film character seems too butch. Too much a bit of a Hollywood Nick Danger.
