Woodstock is a pop/rock-documentary.  For those who still enjoy
the music of the late sixties, the film would be enjoyable.
On second viewing, it might even be educational.  But it is not
a great film.  The sound recording quality was not up to our
current standards, and the projected image is often fuzzy.
