And before he can get back to her, if he can get back to her, well, like in any Western, whether set in Arizona or Alpha Centauri, a man’s gotta do what a man’s gotta do. “There are certainly elements that feel ‘Western’ and carry that flavor. Definitely there’s a frontier vibe,” agrees director Ron Howard, who had ridden in like the cavalry when the original directing team of Phil Lord and Christopher Miller was replaced six months into the shoot. “So that ethos certainly influenced the movie,” the 64-year-old Oscar-winner says, speaking by phone … [Read more...] about Ron Howard: ‘Solo’ has feel of a Western

DRIVEN: Mercedes-AMG CLA45 review

Buyers nowadays expect more with their personal forms of transportation – more power, more safety, more equipment, more value, you get the picture. And with demand comes supply, so car manufacturers are more than happy to meet (and exceed) those needs, including Mercedes-AMG. The famed acronym has been on a roll lately, delivering nearly 100,000 cars in 2016 – a 44.1% growth from the year before that (2015). Part of this success comes from the variety of options offered to buyers, including a few entry-level options like the A 45 and the CLA 45. The latter is the topic of today’s review, with the facelifted model going on sale in September last year. The outgoing model is already a formidable performance … [Read more...] about DRIVEN: Mercedes-AMG CLA45 review
