Casting

Shaun Duffy and Sophia Costas never suspected they'd chosen a career path that would eventually require them to find 6,000 people willing to grow out their body hair. "A lot of the looking for extras in 'Taking Woodstock' was about hair," said Costas, who, along with Duffy, served as extras casting director on director Ang Lee's new film about the landmark music and cultural event. "We couldn't have any really short haircuts. And because several people appear nude in the movie, we also had to make sure that they had hair in all the right places!"
