The movie follows some pretty nerdy people as they prepare for the annual American Crossword Puzzle Tournament. These people are good, as in fast. They can complete the puzzles in a matter of mere minutes. Amazing!
This film brought back memories of sitting "The Wilk" trying to finish the crossword in the student paper, the Universe. Anyway, I liked the movie, it was interesting. I printed off a few crossword puzzles afterwards to have a go at them, I am defiantly a Monday/Tuesday level solver.
A cool place to check (or cheat) on your answers is at Rex Parker's blog. He gives you tons of info about those obscure clues too, like a 6 letter word meaning headgear for medieval soldiers: ARMETS.
Who Knew?
