New Trailer for Ang Lee's 'Taking Woodstock'

For his next trick, director Ang Lee is going back to 1969 and covering the most famous concert of all time. Taking Woodstock is not about the music so much, but rather the nearly impossible task of putting together a concert that size in the middle of nowhere. The plan was executed by Elliot Tiber (Demetri Martin), who saw an opportunity for the concert to save his parents' motel. One giant field and a hundred thousand of your closest friends later, the legend was born. It does not look like any of Ang Lee's recent work, and maybe that's a good thing for him. He always bounces from one style to another, and maybe working in an ensemble comedy will open up some new doors for him. Take a look at the new trailer: Ang Lee's latest will be in theaters on August 14th.
