As electronic musician Dan Deacon has increasingly lent his talents to the big screen, it’s become more and more difficult to guess his next move. Between scoring inventive nonfiction features like “Rat Film” and “Time Trial,” Deacon has also found the time to contribute music to Francis Ford Coppola’s fascinating “Twixt” and Fisher Stevens and Malcolm Venville’s heart-pounding “And We Go Green.” His latest: Rebecca Stern’s “Well Groomed,” a flashy documentary about, of all things, the wild world of professional dog grooming.
Stern’s documentary, entirely scored by Deacon, premiered at SXSW in 2019, before working its way around the festival circuit, including screenings at Hot Docs, Montclair, Bentonville, RiverRun, Sarasota, and many more. Earlier this month, “Well Groomed” hit streaming, through HBO.
Per its official synopsis, it “explores the exuberant world of competitive dog grooming and follows the lives of dog owners who are challenging the definition of art.
