Puzzle 80 – “O Brothers, Here Thou Art”
puz here / pdf here / solution here
Back with a themed one this week, yall, and this time, it’s a crossover puzzle with a podcast co-hosted by my pal Chris Ayers. Check out what he’s up to over at the homepage for The Life of the Mind (mild spoiler there for this puzzle’s theme–click there and you’ll know right away what cinematic partnership is at the center of this crossword).
Favorite clues here: 6-Across.
Hope you enjoy, yall. Comments welcomed. Happy solving.
Very nice. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed!
so fun. But Faulkner? Not Odets? Favorite Clue, 39 down.
Turturro is partially based on Odets, sure… but Mahoney’s character is Faulkner-esque.
For whatever reason, maybe just chance, this was the hardest puzzle of yours I have done. I guess I need to watch more Coen Brothers movies.
It gets a little niche, maybe. But every title that shows up here is highly recommended!
The SW quadrant did me in, but as always, your puzzles are challenging but fair!
Mild misdirect on 27-Down there, yeah.
