What do John Stewart, Bill Clinton, Ken Burns, Mike Mussina, Bob Dole, and The Indigo Girls all have in common? No- they aren’t all people who hate George Bush. In fact, they are part of the 50,000,000 people who actually enjoy doing the crossword in the newspaper.

Seems hard to believe, I know. But, a new film is trying to show audiences just why these people find it so intriguing filling letters into boxes. According to the Director, the movie is an attempt to, “show this world to people who aren’t crossword people and try to explain to them why it’s so fun, and why it pulls you in every single day.”

This quirky film will focus on anything from specific celebrities (Mussina, anyone?) to the difference between pens and pencils. According to the official website, however, the film mainly focuses on the man most associated with crossword puzzles, Master Will Shortz.

Now, I’ve always been more of a Sudoku fan myself- but this film might just change my mind.
