And don’t forget Daffy Duck as Robin: Herald film critic Robert Horton says Ridley Scott’s “Robin Hood,” starring Russell Crowe is a “mostly serious approach” with “historical heft.” Somehow, Horton resists the temptation to stand this “Hood” up against Kevin Costner’s 1991 “Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves.”

Keep on the sunny side: Solar panels are being installed on top of a Snohomish County administration building that eventually will be used to charge a fleet of electric vehicles.
