As the threat of war looms over Britain, the operation to unearth the treasures on her land goes into overdrive archeologists will feud, museums will scheme, the notion of how history is presented will loom like a storm cloud over characters played by Ralph Fiennes, Lily James, and Johnny Flynn. The movie, directed by Simon Stone, stars Mulligan as Edith Pretty, whose country estate is discovered to be home to some very important artifacts-buried, of course, deep beneath the ground. But what makes The Dig even more appealing is that despite how wild the story it tells might be, it’s all entirely true.
Indeed, it checks all the boxes: gorgeous English setting, a ramshackle country estate, period-specific costumes, Carey Mulligan as a rich widow. There’s no arguing that The Dig, the new film premiering January 29 on Netflix, is a big, beautiful period drama.
