...movies with a lower body count and slower pulse, Julie & Julia and The Time Traveler's Wife kept purring along; Meryl Streep's impersonation of Julia Child has now earned more than $70 million, while the Eric Bana-Rachel McAdams love story is nearing $50 million. In its opening weekend, Taking Woodstock - Ang Lee's tale of peace, love and outrageous Jewish stereotypes - took in a wan $3.7 million. That wouldn't be too big a disappointment for a low-budget film, but Woodstock cost a mediumish $30 million - the same as District...
...novel (national epic, family saga and testy teen drama knotted into one) meanders - including an abrupt jaunt to Granada, where Zakia and Zaki vacation just so, it seems, Sethi can make a point about the high potential of Islamic culture.

...This is one of those little movies set against a big event, like I Wanna Hold Your Hand (how four girls got into Ed Sullivan's theater to see the Beatles) or Love Field (Diane Lane as a JFK fan in Dallas on Nov. 22, 1963). Lee's film is screenwriter-producer James Schamus' adaptation of Elliot Tiber's reminiscence about his small but crucial role in bringing the mammoth concert to his hometown...
