Remember when TV shows used to strive to impart moral values? Although I must confess I love "3:10 to Yuma." Not quite your classic Western, the main character must struggle with what he knows to be right and the grim economic reality before him. In kind of a twist on your pre/post 1960s theme, I came across Elmore Leonard originally through "Maximum Bob" and "Get Shorty." I did not realize what a gifted Western genre writer he had been. joAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3360697570873499457.post-78910454258409338862011-05-14T08:27:37.254-07:002011-05-14T08:27:37.254-07:00I love black and white moveies, too, Jo.

I was born a little before 1960, loved Twilight Zone! Our youngest family members are Gen Z (later 1990s, early 2000s). The generation after Z is supposedly going to be called ALPHA. How Sci Fi is that? joAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
