Future Perfect: Filmmaker Ondi Timoner Digs Into 'Dig! XX'

Dylan Bird chats with filmmaker Ondi Timoner about Dig! XX - the expanded edition of her 2004 music documentary Dig! which depicted the friendship and eventual rivalry of American indie bands The Brian Jonestown Massacre and The Dandy Warhols.

Ondi looks back on her experience creating the original film, its legacy, and the new footage added for the re-release – including The Brian Jonestown Massacre’s on-stage brawl in Melbourne last year.

“These two bands … have this star-crossed obsession, love-hate relationship – it was like Romeo and Juliet meets Amadeus.
