As I said before the visuals tell the story, how we choose to interpret what we see is dependent on whether we actually view it in context or just see a pair of exposed pierced breasts and the exploitation of women, which too is the story, so whichever way you look at or object to the poster we still come back to the story being told.
We sometimes have to try and think outside the box.
I don't see that,sorry.
Besides that i don't bond with Lisbeth character,as usual cause sometimes i don't bond at all with any female characters,i see only a smart use of a young girl naked exposed body just to catch the interest of a male audience.
But i don't see Lisbeth in the poster of the movie.
I see Rooney Mara' ruined body.
And Craig to me doesn't look protective at all,he seems very evil,very old, and also minacious.It's like he wanted to point it out that the naked girl he's embracing is his personal property.That's why i said that to me this poster is too into S&M visual style.At least to me is quite recognizable an S&M influence.
Also it's not a matter to see out of the box,not everyone knows the theme of the film in detail,so some people see only a naked girl embraced by and old man in the poster.
In Canada infact the poster was censored..
Moreover, we assume that everyone knows well the theme of the movie,but nor everyone read the book.I embody a viewer who sees only the movie poster for the first time and knows absolutely nothing about the movie or the book.
All your opionions are really skilled and perfectly fine to me,but all of you knows already the swedish movies,or read the books,and basically have already an detailed idea of the theme of the movie,so it's easy to come to these deep conclusions for you.
No kidding! She's in his way - that's what she is!
