DIG! - An Interloper Film!!   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #2803 of 3809 |

Ok, I was reading about this documentary, and it's definitely a "must
see!"

DIG! is the feature-length documentary shot over seven years about
musicians Anton Newcombe, leader of The Brian Jonestown Massacre, and
Courtney Taylor, head of The Dandy Warhols - star-crossed friends and
bitter rivals. From the moment they met, The Dandy Warhols and The
Brian Jonestown Massacre quickly bonded over a desire to not conform
to the tastes of the recording industry. Yet the bands' choices over
how to express their creativity and originality in a profit-driven
industry eventually put them at irreconcilable odds

Culled from 1,500 hours of footage and narrated by Courtney Taylor,
DIG! follows the underground giant Anton Newcombe, unearthing him to
be an important yet largely unnoticed artist of our time.

DIG! is about both musicians' love and obsession, gigs and
recordings, arrests and death threats, uppers and downers - their
choices between art and industry, which unfold with the passage of
time.

DIG! will debut as a collectible 2-DVD set . The first DVD includes
the film and features a special interactive viewing experience
allowing the viewer to watch deleted scenes in the context of the
film. Also included on the first disc are commentary tracks with both
bands and the filmmakers. The second bonus DVD contains over 2 hours
of additional unseen material including deleted scenes, "where are
they now?" updates, performance videos, Dandy Warhols videos, footage
from MTV's Subterranean, and much more! In their highly informative
and often comedic commentary tracks, each band reunites to view DIG!
together for the first time … reliving their exploits, melees, drug
abuse, and conflicts, even sometimes finding resolution...

Anyway, I've never seen a documentary like this one before, and with
good bands... sounds very good, I'll get it. It's out since April
12th!

Have any of you seen it before? I also saw it was the winner of grand
jury prize of Sundance film festival, last year...
