Is New York Times crossword puzzle editor Will Shortz the sexiest man alive?
Well, no -- unless you're really into short, nerdy, balding old dudes (and if you are, that's cool -- no judgment here). But Shortz is the star of his very own movie, the documentary Wordplay, another of this year's Sundance hits heading for the multiplexes. It chronicles the 2005 crossword puzzle championship, a tournament for geeks, er, puzzle-doers that Shortz hosts each year in Connecticut. (July)
