 I think I've figured this out - do the single squares represent letters which don't repeat while the rectangles carry a letter down, and the dotted lines carry a letter to a different space? Are the answers necessarily in order? |

Are the answers necessarily in order? I can confirm that they are not in order, but your on the right page with the other observations. |

OK, got it, except for three clues - the widower and his long-dead wife, the Australian programmer, and the man with the novel written about him. Anyone have any luck with those?

Im having trouble with the Australian one as well. For the widower it is something you might say to someone after you shared a secret with them... And for the novel one It stars Jim Carey I'm having trouble with the bureaucrat in a dystopian future one. I thought it was a George Orwell novel but I am down to two word spaces and it doesn't seem to fit. |

The dystopian future one is not George Orwell , but rather is a Python-directed film. |

I have most of the movies, I'm just a little confused as to how to fit them in. I think what's throwing me off is exactly what to do with the columns. Once you hit the bottom, do you start back up on the same line where you started, or continue on the lower line you ended up on?

Only the letters carry to the bottom and help form the next word. |

If ya'll after still struggling with the Australian one, I figured it our. It's the very long long one at the bottom You might say the first part of the title is what spies do. The second part references a site that we all might work on if we had a broken faucet. Now that we got it complete, any idea what the deeper puzzle might be? |

I was thinking that perhaps there may be some messge using the shared letters? I'm not looking at it right now as the Tony Awards (which are absolute life) are on so I'll take a look at it after I've filled in that last word |

The key we're looking for here is 4 letters, and there are four emboldened clues in the list. That could be coincidence, but the word is NOT
MOST
TOMS
TART
FILM

2. This was the last one I solved - it seems rather obscure. It's a documentary, related to the subject matter you've probably already found if you've tried Google.
3. It's a direct remake of one of the other films in this column. |
