Dig! XX (15)

The DIY indie world is thought to be kinder and gentler than the pop and rock world, but tempers and egos can still get out of control. 20 years ago, Dig! blew apart and made public the rivalry between bands The Dandy Warhols and The Brian Jonestown Massacre. These two groups began as friends and peers but as the filming continued the differences between their levels of success turned the relationship toxic, with explosive results, and made a star of cartoonish, megalomaniac Anton Newcombe for reasons he didn’t quite expect. This new documentary has a special introduction and new footage from the shoot along with fresh contributions and a new narration reflecting on the film’s impact. Not to be missed for fans of the bands, documentary filmmaking and fascinating character studies.
