Movie Info
This iconic musical documentary covers the three-day 1969 music festival on the property of Max Yasger's farm that symbolized the late 1960s in terms of musical, social and political ideology of the era. American audiences are introduced to Ten Years After, featuring guitar great Alvin Lee. Jimi Hendix, The Who and Joe Cocker give riveting performances. As naked flower children romp, the New York freeway is closed because of traffic congestion. Music lovers leave their cars and travel on foot

Few documentaries have captured a time and place more completely, poignantly, and for that matter, entertainingly.
Those who do appear are good, with some for the ages.
A seminal docu on any number of levels, musically, sociologically, and historically, Woodstock is a unique chronicle, at once summing up the zeitgeist and signaling the end of an era; for once Oscar voters were right.
A funky curio that defines the mood and spirit of its time, but which seems dated in many good and bad ways.
If the film isn't the best rock documentary of the best rock concert of all time, it will do until something better comes along.
a dazzling reminder of a simpler, younger time and the brief promise it attained.
Everyone is there, from Wavy Gravy to Janis.
Wonderful document of its era; music reigns supreme still
A fascinating time capsule
Sprawling and overlong, it's nonetheless a valuable time capsule. You get the impression nothing could take the place of being there to witness the legendary event firsthand.
An important sociological document as much as a massive who's who of rock and folk in 1969.
