Rocker antics are on full display.
The Big Picture Ondi Timoner’s 2004 documentary Dig! is a masterful blend of everything there is to love about rock music. There is the superb songwriting and guitar playing of both The Brian Jonestown Massacre and The Dandy Warhols, two '90s bands that beautifully blended garage rock and psychedelics to create a unique sound. There’s the vain, petty, and even childish behavior of some of the band members, who obviously heard tales of rocker antics and sought to imitate them.
Timoner’s style feels both of its time and remarkably fresh and energetic. The camera never seems to sit still, frequently swirling around in a loose and trippy manner that blends seamlessly with concert footage. The pace is fast, more like a music video than a documentary. The overall effect is something akin to a blend of MTV and Oliver Stone's The Doors. Timoner injects so much life and energy into her film that it’s impossible not to get swept up in the bands’ insanity.
Only 16 minutes into the film, Newcombe starts a brawl onstage. To some, this might seem irrelevant but it’s an honest indication of the singer’s struggles with mental health issues and alcoholism. To ignore incidents like this brawl is burying one’s head in the sand about not just the difficult truths of creative types but of human beings in general.
