1972,
The Western, at its creative and commercial peak – the late 1960s-early 1970s – proved itself an astoundingly pliable genre. It could be molded to deal with topical subject matter like racism (Skin Game, 1971), feminism (The Ballad of Josie, 1967), the excesses of capitalism (Oklahoma Crude, 1973). It could be bent into religious allegories (High Plains Drifter, 1973), or an equally allegorical address of the country’s most controversial war (Ulzana’s Raid, 1972). Westerns could be used to deconstruct America’s most self-congratulatory myths (Doc, 1971), and address historical slights and omissions (Little Big Man, 1970). They could provide heady social commentary (Hombre, 1967), or simple adventure and excitement (The Professionals, 1966). They could be funny (The Hallelujah Trail, 1965), unremittingly grim (Hour of the Gun, 1967), surreal (Greaser’s Palace, 1972), even be stretched into the shape of rock musical (Zachariah, 1971) or monster movie (Valley of Gwangi, 1969).

Girlfriends – This is a sight you don’t see to often – the low profile-mom of three picking up her 2 year-old son, Henry Daniel, in La, after a busy morning at pre-school!
Apparently dad Danny Moder, had dropped him off and mama Julia did pickup duty with Danny’s dad, Mike Moder. Henrys’ big twin brother and sister, Hazel and Phinnaeus, 5, were no where in sight – but the little guy was no doubt thrilled to have his busy mom to himself.
Julia, 42, who presented the award for Best Picture Drama, at the Golden Globe Awards on Jan. 17, is next seen out of her worn-in jeans in the romantic comedy Valentine’s Day premiering in La, Feb. 8th and then in the chickflick Eat, Pray, Love, due out next August.
