Dir: Debra Granik / 2010 / US / 100 minutes Winner of two major prizes at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival, Winter’s Bone is an atmospheric thriller that follows an unwavering young woman on a perilous journey into a hazardous landscape.

Dir: Daniel Alfredson / 2010 / Sweden / Swedish with English Subtitles / 129 minutes Based on the international bestseller, The Girl Who Played With Fire is the second film in the thrilling trilogy that began with The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. A year has passed and we revisit the tormented goth computer hacker extraordinaire Lisbeth Salander – now on the run from the law. This minor setback doesn’t stop her from joining up with her trusted reporter/ confidant Mikal, as they investigate a complex case of power and corruption that leads them both onto the path of a notorious killer. As the case delves deeper into the seedy underbelly of the societal hierarchy, we unwittingly learn more about Lisbeth’s shadowed past and the true origins behind this mysteriously intriguing woman. A.O. Scott of The NY Times calls The Girl Who Played With Fire “Terrifically compelling.”

Z trades positions with his friend Weaver, a soldier ant, to see the princess during a parade, and then may have to save the ant colony.
