This is an afterthought



. My first contact with Taking Woodstock was in 2009 when I heard that Ang Lee made this memoir into a movie

. I saw its Chinese translation when I saw the Chinese translation of the memoir, so I immediately bought it and went home

even though the Chinese The version is a bit awkward to read, but it's still very fascinating

. When I watched the finished editing work last Friday, a classmate used the material used to make Woodstock's movie

. First of all, I



can't resist the retro and 60's style.

Elliot's mushroom head, Michael Lang's hippie outfit makes me dazzled.

I just like girls with long hair and hairbands.

I like mushrooms . Head boy

I like dreams, love, peace, freedom

I like Elliot not because he's gay

I like Michael Lang's ambiguous little eyes

hippies, they say sex not war, I've always liked hippies

I like their spirit of eternal hope.

They are not decadent, they are not angry, they find their own happiness in hemp and small pills.

The moment Elliot took the pill and had hallucinations, I knew he was deeply moved by those He was moved by the erratic beautiful lines and patterns that appeared in front of him. When he saw the surging crowd like a tidal wave and the light from the distant stage, he burst into tears, because he was happy at that time. Yes, he got a peace he had never had before.

Insert a sentence here, Ang Lee shot that scene too beautiful... Actually, hemp and drugs are not good!!!!!!!!!! Don't touch!!!!



Books Although there is a lot of content in the movie that is not touched on in the movie, the movie itself is still worth mentioning.

Ang Lee emphasized the theme of family affection, and the same-sex plot about the protagonist Elliot was not expressed in depth.



In 1969, when tens of thousands of hippies gathered in Baihu to enjoy music for one purpose, we in China were in the Cultural Revolution.



This is a work that I like,

so I recommend it! But I recommend the book even more!
