A magical documentary recounting the 35 tumultuous years of the Glastonbury Music Festival, this is an exhilarating experience. As long as you take a vat of mud into the cinema with you and spend two hours queuing to use a toilet, this really is as good as being at the festival itself.
Adrian Hennigan, BBCi Film.

 

 
Temple condenses the whole silly-costumed, veggie-burgered, band-hopping weekend into a glorious, hallucinogenic two hours.
Twitching back and forth through the decades, Temple tracks the growth from Eavis' 1970 shamble-about with 1,500 hippies to the celebrated 100,000-strong mosh of multiculture it is today.
