The Night Digger is by no means an unalloyed masterpiece. It's director seems preoccupied with nuance to the detriment of narrative, and consequently much of the film looks like a triumph of mood over matter. [17 Jun 1971, p.75]
It begs for empathy for its tortured principals, but despite the clearly dedicated contributions of Patricia Neal, Roald Dahl, her scenarist-husband; Pamela Brown and a young newcomer, Nicholas Clay, the strain on credibility is a good deal more notable than the impact on the emotions.
