Ang Lee's new film Taking Woodstock, a retelling of the greatest musical event ever, hits theaters today, and so to celebrate the release JustPressPlay is giving away 5 Taking Woodstock Prize Packs. Each pack includes the official soundtrack and a special Taking Woodstock t-shirt and air freshener. Yes, an air freshener/ It may be scented with mud and beatnik sweat, but it's still an air freshener.

Based on the memoirs of Elliot Tiber, the comedy stars Demetri Martin as Elliot, who inadvertently played a role in making 1969’s Woodstock Music and Arts Festival into the famed happening it was. Featuring a standout ensemble cast, and songs from a score of ‘60s musical icons including The Grateful Dead, The Doors, Jefferson Airplane, and Country Joe and the Fish – plus a new recording of “Freedom” from Richie Havens – Taking Woodstock is a joyous voyage to a moment in time when everything seemed possible. Cast also includes Jonathan Groff, Eugene Levy, Imelda Staunton, Emile Hirsch, Liev Schreiber, Jeffrey Dean Morgan.
