Netflix’s “The Dig,” is a period piece set in Suffolk, England in 1939 showcasing the excavation of Sutton Hoo, a medieval cemetery dating back to the 6th and 7th centuries. Make sure to have tissues on deck as this film is emotional, dramatic and thought-provoking. It attempts to answer the question of what happens to us after we die. Who will remember us? How will we be remembered? The movie features stars such as Carey Mulligan, Ralph Fiennes and Lily James.

Song to Listen to: Drivers License
Olivia Rodrigo’s “Drivers License” made headlines within the first week it was released. Rolling Stone Magazine noted that “Drivers License,” was streamed 67.7 million times during its first week of being released. According Jon Caramanica, a critic for the New York Times, the song “successfully balances dark yet crisp melodrama with bold tunefulness, softly pointed singing with sharp imagery. It is, in every way, a modern and successful pop song.” “Drivers License” is available on Spotify and YouTube Music.
