    Gorgeous Lily James slumming it in The Dig
    What an acting talent ... Lily James in The Dig plays an archeologist who is neglected by her digging partner and husband, who may very well be playing for the other team, as it were. She wears specs, has hair is dark and she appears somewhat of a nerd. Deep down though she is one horny girl. I'd bang her. Of course, this same Lily James also recently gained global notoriety luciously playing actor Pamela Anderson in the movie about her mostly public relationship with the infamous long-dong tattooed drummer Tommy Lee. The Dig is a decent flick starring the great Ralph Fiennes, so you know it's worth your time.

    Ancient and Recent History Uncovered and Valued
    The depth of character was unleashed by excellent and sympathetic acting, along with a great script and interestingly compulsive cinematography and editing.

    The telling of historical stories such as this, can sometimes be lost in an unfounded need to appeal to the masses, but here nothing was lost. Every detail was expertly sieved out and delivered with such skill, that I was hooked immediately and sailed along on a gentle wave of nostalgia and pride. However accurate this story telling is, really shouldn't be in question, as it was heartfelt and passionate in every aspect.

    I was left with a lump in my throat and would recommend you gave a couple of hours of your time for a really excellent piece of art, which hopefully will leave you feeling the same.
