abstruse baffle complication confound confuse debatable difficult dilemma disconcert disturb elusive enigma enigmatic equivocal esoteric gray area hard hidden hoodwink | Shortz had been studying, creating and editing puzzles for his entire life, having graduated from Indiana University as the only person in the world with a degree in enigmatology (the study of puzzles), an area of concentration he created under the auspices of the university’s general-studies program. If there's more to the man who graduated Indiana University with a degree in enigmatology (the study of puzzles) and has spent his adult life creating crosswords, Creadon doesn't find it, and that's probably fine by the Puckish Shortz. The film uses the career of Will Shortz, puzzle editor of the New York Times crossword, as its focus: his love of puzzles as a boy, his creation of an undergraduate major in Enigmatology, and his subsequent career including the editing of puzzle magazines and the hosting of the American Crossword Puzzle Tournament each year in Stamford, Connecticut (for another view of this tourney, read Crossworld, reviewed in the February 2006 Word Ways). |
