TV Academy Members are invited to the IFP/Chicago Facets Film Series Presentation of
SCRABYLON Wednesday, October 13, 2004 - 7:00pm Facets Multi-Media, 1517 W. Fullerton, Chicago
Scrabylon, a documentary on the cutthroat world of tournament
Scrabble, is the latest film to screen in the IFP/Chicago-Facets 'Meet
the Filmmaker' Series. Featuring the most fierce anagrammers, rack
balancers, and bingo experts in competitive Scrabble, Scrabylon delves
deep into this sometimes wacky, sometimes odd, always compelling
subculture. Shot primarily during the 2001 World Scrabble Championships
in Las Vegas, Scrabylon features players from around the globe and
gives an up-close look at why people get so obsessed with that
seemingly benign game played at countless kitchen tables. **DIRECTOR
