“The Dig” is a movie to put on while you sip tea on a comfy couch; letting it slowly lull you into a peaceful nap.
There’s little surprising about director Simon Stone’s film. Nothing will astonish you, nothing will shock. The entire outing; about the amateur archeological expedition of Sutton Hoo, cruises along with the assurance of an experienced cab driver going below the speed limit on a back country road.
The gentle aural cadences and softly-lit scenic vistas of Stone’s film make “The Dig” feel like a loping narrative travelogue through time, with the solid promise of an unhurried return journey at its end.
Equally assuring is “Dig’s” stacked cast of British actors. Led by Carey Mulligan and Ralph Fiennes,…
I don’t dig it.
Literally have NOTHING to say about this except that it feels like a 3 hours film and is one of the most uninteresting “well-made” , oscar-bait-y, Terrence Malick wannabes, films I’ve ever seen
They said you couldn't make a 1 hour 52 minute long film about people digging a hole in someone's backyard,
They were wrong,
what other boring shit must carey mulligan pretend to be interested in to convince the academy to let her into the oscars
this was a beautiful film i dig it i really do!!! love me a well shot, emotional period drama with a good cast it’s true
Carey Mulligan asks Fiennes to "Dig" it.
And Lily James plays Peggy Piggott.
They'll dig in suits,
Have some disputes,
When dealing with archeologist bigots.
the looming spectre of the great war...the voice of winston churchill on a radio...tweed...class snobbery...repressed homosexuality...more tweed...repressed heterosexuality...pretty piano music...so much tweed...
what i'm saying is this is a perfectly engineered british movie
