In what’s easily the most interesting coverage of Depression-era outlaws Bonnie Elizabeth Parker and Clyde Chestnut Barrow (aka, Bonnie & Clyde), The Highwaymen tells the story from the angle of the Texas lawmen who hunted them down, Frank Hamer and Maney Gault, retired Texas Rangers called back into service to capture or kill the murderous duo. John Lee Hancock (The Blind Side) directed Kevin Costner as Hamer and Woody Harrelson as Gault in their crotchety finest. The trailer is both hilarious with the crabby exchanges between Costner and Harrelson, as well as gritty, showing Bonnie executing a police officer in the middle of the road. The 1967 movie Bonnie and Clyde with Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway as the leads surely paved the way for this movie that will likely ramp up the storytelling and violence surrounding the drama of the actual events. Also, look for the inimitable Kathy Bates as Texas governor Ma Ferguson. The Highwaymen opens in limited engagements on March 15th and hits Netflix March 29th.

Vaer’s G5 Meridian Watch Looks and Feels Better Than the Five-Times More Expensive Option It Reminds You Of
Vaer has been one of our favorite watchmakers for as long as we can remember because they produce new, classic watches based on iconic designs. Case in point, the Vaer G5 Meridian watch you see here. This timepiece is a 1950s-inspired 20ATM automatic watch that’s USA-assembled, dual timezone, built with ocean-ready functionality, self-winding and the brand’s first true GMT (the latest version of their core dive watch design). What’s more, it pays homage to other watches that are incredibly more expensive or hard to come by whilst also adding new aspects that makes this Vaer G5 Meridian watch more desirable than the other options in our opinion.
