En la pelicula Svengali: Vida, Pasión y Rocanrol, Dixie pasa sus días como cartero en un pequeño pueblo de Nueva Gales del Sur, pero lo que él es un fanático de la música, y como nunca ha cantado cree que lo mejor para él es convertirse en el manager de alguna banda. Por eso, en su tiempo libre no deja de buscarlas y un buen día encuentra una que cree que puede llegar a lo más alto. Contacta con ellos, y para su sorpresa aceptan que alguien como Dixie, sin experiencia alguna, sea su manager. A ello ayuda que los The Premature Congratulations sean muy jóvenes y tampoco es que tengan demasiada experiencia en la música profesional. De esta forma, Dixie comienza a promocionarlos.

This is the story of the rock n roll dream and its accompanying nightmares.

Finally, as Britpop declines, he asks what legacy it has left. Including contributions from Blur's Graham Coxon, Elastica's Justine Frischmann, Sleeper's Louise Wener, former New Labour insider Darren Kalynuk, and the founder of Creation records, Alan McGee.

A documentary made for television that looks back on the development and rapid rise of Oasis from being a band practicing nightly in the Boardwalk to one the biggest British bands of the last thirty years. Building from the formation of the band (with Liam apparently just fed up waiting for other bands to release records and decides to do something himself), the film uses contributions from key people really well to tell the story in an engaging way.
