Everyone at Smith has hell days, the ones that hit like natural disasters with three or more classes, some monstrosity of a project due at the ungodly hour of 9 a.m., an obligatory org duty that takes way longer than expected, a span of half an hour to finish your "less important" assignments right before they're due, and, oh, just to keep things interesting, you're running on five hours of sleep at best.

But as fate - and a hastily assembled casting call at UMass - would have it, last Monday found two Smith friends and me on the movie set of Ang Lee's upcoming film "Taking Woodstock" in New Lebanon, New York, taking in the setup of vintage cars and yoga circles while waiting for the "background, action!" cue.
