Is there anything that unites people the way common language does? Words are complex, elegant, and simple. But I really never stop to think about words.
Here are two documentaries that I've seen that really made me think about words and their place in my life.
A great movie about crossword puzzles, the people who do them, and the people who create them. In my mind the under two minutes nytimes crossword solve contained in the film is equivalent two the crazy kids who solve rubic's cubes in under 30 secs.
This movie is a little slower, and not as exciting, but extremely interesting. Seemingly benign, fonts have a really interesting history brought forth in this very swiss movie.
Good Watching.
