On a bored Sunday (a week ago actually), scrolling through Netflix, and I happened across Ladybird. I knew it had garnered some awards and had a female director, so I decided to watch. It was fine? I think I have too much experience with teenagers to be terribly impressed with it. I've raised three of them and I've taught thousands more. I know about their pretentiousness, their extremism, and their drama. Still the movie was enjoyable and a good watch.

This past Sunday, I watched The Dig. I had been puzzled as to why #SuttonHoo was trending on Twitter because that stuff was found ages ago, but then I realized, "Oh, there's a movie on Netflix." I'm up for any sort of archaeological drama. Despite the added incidents, that probably didn't actually happen, I thoroughly enjoyed this movie.

The Dig is a lovely film and I thought both Ralph Fiennes and Cary Mulligan were really excellent in it. Apparently the curator of the early medieval exhibits at the British Museum has said the traffic on their website pages about Sutton Hoo has tripled and her email and twitter has been swamped by people wanting to know more.

I haven't got around to Ladybird yet, but thank you for the reminder about it. :)
