It isn’t until after the film is over and you’ve digested what just transpired that you find yourself smiling, thinking about all the nuances you’ve just witnessed. When I first saw the trailer for the film, I was immediately drawn to the mystery of the rusty gun and what appears to be a human bone fragment unearthed in the backyard of a home Tim (Jake Johnson), a public school teacher, and his wife Lee (Rosemarie DeWitt), a yoga instructor, are house-sitting. Needless to say, what ensues throughout Digging for Fire caught me off guard in the most pleasant, unexpected way.
