- cpach 12y agoHow so?
- bhayden 12y agoThere's a chuck of the movie where they're recruiting potential code breakers by putting a difficult puzzle in the newspaper and telling readers if they can solve it in under 5 minutes to apply to the job. Same sort of premise here.
- cpach 12y agoAh, cool. I haven’t yet seen the movie. Only a few weeks left till the video release :)
- jacquesm 12y agoIt has a scene in it where recruits are approached using a cross-word puzzle in a newspaper followed up by a much tougher test.
