Director Ang Lee.

Jeffrey Dean Morgan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan), who is very popular in the American drama "Grey's Anatomy", also participated in this film.

This most famous rock music festival is little known to Chinese people. August 15-18, 1969. Seeing that rock and roll had become a major force in youth culture in the late 1960s and that love and peace had become the zeitgeist, several young people held a "Woodstock Music" event near the small town of Woodstock in upstate New York. and the Arts Festival". The concert lineup included most of the folk and rock stars of the era, except for the most important three: The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, and Bob Dylan. The singers took turns on the stage day and night. The young people in the audience sang and danced in the mud after the rain, bathed naked in the river, and practiced "making love without fighting" on the grass.

Under the direction of Ang Lee, this film is very interesting and has created some very rich characters, the male protagonist Jewish youth Eliot (Demetri Martin), and for his gay sexuality, he has only slightly touched, but the discerning person You will understand at a glance.

And his lovely mean mother.

The performance of the music festival is just like the title of the film. It only introduces how it was created, and the scene of the performance is not copied. It just shows the people from all over the world who participated in the music festival and how they came to feel the music. Peace.

This is a very good video. Ang Lee is a true international director, and he can handle any film with ease.

By the way, for some domestic directors, they can come up with good works when they have no money. After they have money, they don’t know how to make movies.

I'm not talking about you, when Ang Lee was in the United States, you all said not to go to the United States to be a cheap director and not to participate in the Oscars. After the great success of Ang Lee's "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", he started to film "Heroes", "The Banquet", "House of Flying Daggers", etc., and they all entered the Oscars. What is Ang Lee doing at this time? He won the grand prize again after filming "Broken Arm Mountain". You are dumbfounded. This shows one thing, you can make a good movie by not giving you a lot of money. Who wouldn't brag?

    Ang Lee after "Lust, Caution" needs a haven that can reduce stress, and Woodstock is such a utopian paradise. Ang Lee's knowledge of Chinese and Western cultures may not be reached by any Chinese director. The Brian de Palma-style screen division & semi-documentary technique, the psychedelic section is too powerful.

    A boring and straightforward narrative is far worse than the low-cost documentary on similar subjects in Germany.

Taking Woodstock quotes

  • [Elliot finds his father pouring a jug into the freshly-filled swimming pool]

    Elliot Tiber: Dad, that's bleach for the laundry.

    Jake Teichberg: It kills the germs. What's the difference?

  • [the Chamber of Commerce discussing tourism ideas]

    Frank: Well, okay. We got a lot of dairy farms around here, right? And a fair number of bulls. Okay, you've all heard of the running of the bulls in that town in Spain, Pampoona.

    Elliot Tiber: Pamplona.

    Frank: Well, no one's doing one in the Catskills. Seems to be a big draw over there.

    Annie: It would be very amusing to see all those Jews from Levitsky's summer colony, you know, the ones with the black top hats and the curls, running for their lives chased by our local livestock. Wouldn't that be a wonderful sight!
