The Dig is a stunning and very calming film. Because the plot is pretty simple, it relies on the charm of its cast and the beauty of its locations, and it just works very well. Ralph Fiennes is excellent as Basil Brown (though his accent could use some work) and I'm glad Mr. Brown is now recognised for his incredible work. Carey Mulligan is also great as Edith Pretty, and I loved her wardrobe and the manor her character lived in. I was surprised to find that the best performance actually came from Archie Barnes, who played Robert Pretty; for a child actor, he was so good and stole the scene several times. The camerawork is brilliant, as is the soundtrack, and overall I really enjoyed watching this film.
