One of the best


I love Netflix! Amy suggested I watch Wordplay while she was busy last night. WOW! What a great movie! Synopsis:

Focuses on the man most associated with crossword puzzles, New York Times puzzle editor and NPR puzzle-master Will Shortz. Director Patrick Creadon introduces us to this passionate hero, and to the inner workings of his brilliant and often hilarious contributors, including syndicated puzzle creator Merl Reagle.


Since Amy & I are rabid Sunday New York Times puzzlers, we relate to this movie very well! Great interviews with puzzle people like Bill Clinton, John Stewart, and even Mike Mussina of the Yankees. My favorite part is when Will Shortz reads the "letters to the editor", and people write to him all po'd about some of the clues. Hysterical!
