      This film erroneously claims several times that Sweetwater opened the 1969 Woodstock Festival. In truth, Sweetwater was the second act on the bill, after actual opener Richie Havens, but they were the first band to play.

    A Great Movie from VH1
    In 1969, an unkown band was opening a festival called "Woodstock",They made fame and fortune until it cut short with Nansi Nevin's car accident that cause the band to dissapear.

    30 years later an reporter (Kelli Williams) was doing a story about the band "Sweetwater". Then she meet Nancy Nevins, present day (Michelle Philips), telling the story about them. Then they reunite the band after 30 years.

    Great flim from VH1.

    I give it *****.
