From Briscoe Western Art Museum:
“Showcasing the Western film as a vibrant and moving form of Western art, “Still in the Saddle: A New History of the Hollywood Western” showcases the cinematic art and storytelling of the Hollywood Western from the late 1960s through the 1980s. Set against the social unrest, political turmoil, economic uncertainty and generational change of that time, the exhibition pairs historical context with film insights and facts to highlight the films and the genre in a new perspective. “True Grit”, “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid”, “The Wild Bunch”, “Little Big Man”, and “The Outlaw Josey Wales” are just a few of the more than 60 Western films highlighted in this exciting new exhibition which features original movie posters, authentic lobby cards, costumes worn by John Wayne, film stills and clips”
