Taiwan-born Hollywood director Ang Lee (??), 53, is tackling a new movie project, a comedy this time, about America’s famous Woodstock hippie music festival in 1969. Titled Taking Woodstock, the film’s screenplay was written by longtime Lee collaborator James Schamus, 49, from a book by Elliot Tiber with the same title. Tiber’s memoir was quietly published with little fanfare in 2007...
The Landau Grill occupies a building that has been a drinking spot in Woodstock for as long as I’ve been around. Before the Landau, this building housed the local Irish pub. Back in the day, the Irish pub was one...
I paid no attention to the Woodstock Film Festival because I knew that it was just another extreme leftist propaganda bash. Somehow, I thought that artists would consider this a questionable enterprise. Along comes The Woodstock Times’ review of the...
To the picturesque North Oxfordshire village of Woodstock for a talk by veteran journalist Ann Leslie. Situated in the charming St Mary Magdalene Church, the talk was an enlightening glimpse into Ann's very eventful career. Currently writing for the Daily Mail, she came to journalism by accident after a conversation in a pub. She told us about her interview with Muhammed Ali, where she had to...
Police are looking for a bank robber in Woodstock, N.H. A man believed to be wearing a disguise robbed a bank on Main Street around 1:30 Thursday afternoon and got away with cash.
David Cameron, the leader of the Conservative Party, the crime fiction writer PD James and the acclaimed historian Simon Schama, are to take centre stage at Woodstock Literary Festival this weekend.
by Eric Kohn (October 6, 2008) Woodstock is a town perpetually caught up in its funky mythology. However, the Woodstock Film Festival -- now on the verge of its tenth anniversary -- has a separate legacy in the works. The cozy scenery of this quaint artists' colony hides a passionate gathering of cinephiles and professionals alike. Founded in 1999 by Meira Blaustein and Laurent Rejto...
One of my favorites from SXSW took the top doc prize at the wonderful Woodstock Film Festival this weekend. The film also took home the Best Editing for a Doc award. Congrats to director Jeremiah Zagar and team! Here is my very rough initial reaction to In a Dream. Looking back on my writing, I can remember how sleep deprived yet lost in wonderment I felt. Ah, SXSW. The Woodstock Audience...
It's probably the most extraordinary corner in England – the blind corner at the end of Park Street, Woodstock, where two worlds collide. It looks wholly unpromising when you stroll down the main street of this dazzlingly pretty Oxfordshire town, past the Bear Hotel, the church of St Mary Magdalene, the coffee house, Chaucer's House... Then you turn the corner and see before you a huge entrance...

Sung by Grace Slick, who wrote the song and originally recorded it with her previous band The Great Society, this is a live recording from the 1969 Woodstock Festival. If you can remember it, you weren't there. Me, I was at primary school reading The Map That Came to Life . The lyrics mark a fusion between LSD and Lewis Carroll: When logic and proportion Have fallen sloppy dead And the White...
A feisty debate between Robert Fisk and the author Professor Sir Lawrence Freedman brought The Independent Woodstock Literary Festival to a close on a high note last night.
We have all had problems with various aspects of home repair, cable service and installation, pool boys hanging around after hours, and the like. But none of us, I would wager, have had the problems a lady in Woodstock, GA recently had. It seems she had a cable guy do some work on her house. [...]
There's instances where broadband installs go wrong (maybe some crushed azaleas or a giant hole burned in your fence ), and then there's the install that goes very wrong, like a recent Comcast install in Woodstock, Georgia that resulted in a homeowner's home being flooded with raw sewage . An installer with Madison Communications managed to drill -- and run coax through -- a sewer line, causing...
