"Everyone with their little perspective. Perspective shuts out the universe, it keeps the love out" - Carol
Fringe Vests, Interpretive Dancing, "Brownies", Acid, Psychedelic Painted Vans, Free Love, and Peace; Just a couple things that embody the true spirit of the festival of Woodstock. Taking Woodstock is a film that sought to cover a different aspect of the festival that isn't normally captured in the documentary style films, it wanted to bring to light the action behind the event. All the beautiful, behind the scenes, human interactions and drama that enabled the concert that would change the face of music for the rest of time. Taking Woodstock, although a bit hodge-podge in it's plot construction, was quite enjoyable. The special features on the dvd were extremely enlightening and ALL of the historical research that went into the film deserves beyond respect. Anyone who appreciates history and the essence of the 1960's music scene will be thoroughly entertained.
