Wordplay

The documentary Wordplay offers a look into the life of both crossword composers and solvers. Centered around the 28th annual American Crossword Puzzle Tournament, where nearly 500 competitors vie for the title "Crossword Champ", the film reveals the world behind the practice, creation, and history of the crossword puzzle. Featured in the film is Will Shortz, Crossword Editor of the New York Times and NPR's Puzzle Master, who joins Larry to talk about his work and the film. Wordplay is now out on DVD.
