A lovely, touching memorial to a man and his patroness, who together made an incredible discovery in the early years of scientific archeology. Ralph Fiennes, as always, brings an incredibly believable performance as the self-educated Basil Brown, "excavator," full of dignity and humanity. Based on the true story of the discovery of the Sutton Hoo hoard, the largest treasure hoard ever found in Britain. A remarkable story told by a remarkable cast and director. Highly recommended.
