The film skillfully combines the rich history and the infinite starry sky, interspersed with rich elements such as life, life, love, friendship, etc., and extends the discussion of the meaning of life from the theme of archaeology. I have many impressions: 1. The content of the film itself tells the history, and archaeology itself is the excavation of history. We look at them, they look at the ancients, and history rolls forward in the retrospect and reflection of generations. 2. Life is fleeting, maybe history will not leave my name and traces, but what I am willing to work for may become part of history, this is the meaning of my life.

The Dig quotes

  • Edith Pretty: I'm so sorry.

    Basil Brown: I thought you'd be pleased with the veredict.

    Edith Pretty: We die. We die and we decay. We don't live on.

    Basil Brown: I'm not sure I agree. From the first human handprint on a cave wall, we're part of something continuous. So, we... don't really die.

  • Basil Brown: Robert, we all fail. Every day. There are some things we just can't succeed at no matter how hard we try. I know it's not what you want to hear.
