DIG! XX tracks the tumultuous rise of two talented musicians, Anton Newcombe, leader of the Brian Jonestown Massacre, and Courtney Taylor, leader of the Dandy Warhols, and dissects their star-crossed friendship and bitter rivalry. Through their loves and obsessions, gigs and recordings, arrests and death threats, uppers and downers, and ultimately to their chance at a piece of the profit-driven music business, they stage a self-proclaimed revolution in the music industry.

 

Originally seven years in the making, and culled from 2,500 hours of footage, Ondi Timoner’s DIG! gets a 20th-anniversary refresh, featuring 35 minutes of previously unseen footage. Fresh, stylish, raucous, and raw, DIG! XX is a feat in rough-and-tumble filmmaking, but the conflicts it examines are as old as Mozart.
