Movie Haiku:Based on Guthrie’s eponymous counter-culture anthem, but more somber & reflective than you remember it. In the spirit of the times, there are no “stars;” there’s only one familiar face besides Arlo’s (so young & sweet here) – Pete Seeger comes to the hospital to play one last set for Woody.
