The Dig on Netflix

[temery]

Very slow paced movie, but worth watching. It's about the Sutton Hoo Dig.

Very slow paced movie, but worth watching. It's about the Sutton Hoo Dig.

Spoiler

Ralph Fiennes wears a white shirt, tie, waistcoat and proper trousers to shovel dirt every day for months on end to unearth something buried in a mound. Plus you get Lily James realizing she married a closeted gay guy. It's about as British a film as you can get.

It was worth the watch.

It features Carey Mulligan and Lily James, so there's 2 good reasons to watch it.

In 1938, they excavated three mounds in Suffolk, England. They discovered ancient Anglo-Saxon artifacts, from sixth century.
