Word Wars: Tiles And Tribulations On The Scrabble Game Circuit (Full Frame)
Last Minute Sales & Specials
This Is NOT Your Grandmother's Scrabble(R) Game. In this acclaimed 2004 Sundance Festival hit, filmmakers Eric Chaikin and Julian Petrillo follow four top Scrabble(R) players as they advance to the North American Championship: Matt Graham is an intense stand-up comic who consumes massive amounts of "brain function" pills; "G.I." Joel Sherman is a dyspeptic competitor (the "G.I." stand for "gastro-intestinal") whose entire life revolves around the game; Marlon Hill is an angry Black militant who believes Scrabble(R) is a colonialist conspiracy; and Joe Edley is a husband and father who's used a strange Zen strategy to become three-time champion. From professional hustlers in a New York City park to the 700+ player National Finals in San Diego, these are the rivalries, controversies and bizarre obsessions that turn a board game into a battlefield where fate unfolds one tile at a time.
