Emile Hirsch Takes Woodstock

Emile Hirsch holds hands with his girlfriend Brianna Domont at the screening Taking Woodstock at the 2009 Cannes Film Festival on Saturday (May 16) in Cannes, France.

“I was yearning to do a comedy-slash-drama again without cynicism,” director Ang Lee said. “It took me a long way to get there. I thought after 13 years, I sort of earned the right to do it, just be relaxed, be happy and at peace with myself and everybody else.”

According to the AP, Lee even ran a hippie camp to teach the extras the right way to behave and carry themselves!
