Between the critics and the box office, the movie Digger has had a rough time of it, but its famous fans are growing in number. This includes Neil Young, who used his personal website to share a nearly 300-word take on the Tom Cruise film, which he says “cannot be seen as a Tom Cruise film – that would be misleading. I would describe it as a film of our times.”
Continues Young, “The things that are said in Digger are a direct reflection of today’s political and social world. The film is so full of artful expression and radical change ups, that it may be too much to take in for those expecting a commercial film like we are used to today.”
Neil Young’s Take on Digger
Young also advises against reading any reviews of the movie, because “none of the reviews I have read describe this film adequately, in my opinion. They seem to miss the overall effect and most of them are negative. This film lives in a world of art. It is its own best review.”
Related to Young’s recent activities, his 50th album, Second Song, just debuted in September, around the same time as Digger. And Digger is still in theaters now.
Reactions to Digger
A tweet from Jack FR quotes Neil Young saying “Digger is the best film I have ever seen”. This reaction is a testament to the film’s ability to evoke strong emotions and opinions from its viewers.
In conclusion, despite the mixed reviews and box office performance, Digger has found support from notable figures like Neil Young. The film’s themes and artistic expression have resonated with Young, who encourages viewers to experience it for themselves, rather than relying on reviews. As Digger continues to be shown in theaters, it will be interesting to see how it is received by a wider audience and whether it will gain more support from fans and critics alike.
