This might not be such a big deal if we hadn’t been here before, and recently.  Just this past March, actress Natasha Richardson suffered an apparently minor head injury during a ski lesson and was dead a day later.  Now we are hearing that uber-Mom Angelina Jolie has also suffered an apparently minor head injury, this time on the set of her new movie, Salt.

I guess it really was a minor injury, since she was released from the hospital and was back to filming later that afternoon.  She was apparently doing one of the stunts that the movie requires when she hit her head, causing a cut between her eyes.  She often does her own stunts, which require careful choreography and execution, but as far as I know she’s never been injured doing one before.

Anyway, you can’t be too careful with head injuries, as the recent tragic events have shown.  I’m glad she’s okay, and I hope she doesn’t have a headache or anything.
