What We Think

While revolutionary in its era, "Woodstock" is more of a time capsule for 60s counterculture than a blueprint for today’s woke Hollywood. It subverts old-fashioned values, but not along contemporary identity or representation lines.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

As a documentary capturing the chaotic spirit of a real event, "Woodstock" isn't focused on manufactured narrative or forced representation. It largely presents real people without scripting or an ideological filter dominating the editing.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Woke

What is this?

The film glorifies countercultural values, challenges traditional morality, and celebrates alternative lifestyles. While this was of its time and non-woke by today’s standards, it certainly subverts mid-century American cultural norms, just not along modern identity lines.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Woke

What is this?

Alternatives to the hippie mindset are mostly absent or gently mocked, and the film embraces the festival’s burnout idealism with little critique. Still, its focus isn’t on today’s ideological battlegrounds, keeping the score closer to moderate.
