September 30 movie: Word Play. For once, I haven't fallen behind in the movie list. I just haven't watched any movies!
We finally broke the movie fast with Word Play. Which was a charming documentary about crossword puzzles. The focus of the movie was Will Shortz, crossword puzzle editor of the NY Times and puzzle guy on NPR, and they also talk to crossword designers, competitors at a big annual crossword tournament, and a few celebrity crossword aficionados (notably Jon Stewart and Bill Clinton). I enjoyed this a lot. It's fun to watch people being good at something they love.
