About this word search
Alfred Hitchcock made a brief Cameo in many of his own films, often just walking past in the background, and audiences learned to look out for him. In the same years an Usher with a torch would show latecomers to their seats in the dark.
Film and Usher are short and easy to overlook. Subtitles and Premiere are longer and may well run diagonally. Nothing is written backwards in this grid, so each word starts at its first letter and reads on from there.
Afterwards, pick a genre from the list, a Western, a Musical or a Thriller, and let each person name a favourite. You may find you have planned the next film night without meaning to.
Ways to use this word search
With your coffee
Print a sheet for a quiet moment at the kitchen table or in your armchair. Start with the regular version and save the hard one for when you really have time for it.
On the go
Slip a few printed sheets into your bag for the train, a waiting room or a weekend away. A pen is all you need, no screen required.
Puzzle together
Bring the sheet to your book club, a night in with friends or a visit to your parents and see who finds every word first. Or play online and find out who is fastest.
