I just did a dramatic love story. Whether it's a cultural phenomenon is not for me to say.

I didn't have a specific message. I wasn't trying to push any political issues. We are dealing here with love.

Don't watch the film with 'colored glasses' and it's a very touching love story.

The father figure is something I love, but also suffocate from and want to work against.

Over the years Woodstock got glorified and romanticised and became the event that symbolised Utopia. It's the last page of our collective memory of the age of innocence. Then things turned ugly and would never be the same again.

There's a level of sophistication of filmmaking that's mind-boggling. Anything you need for your movie, there's an establishment that can make it happen really fast.
