Word Ladder 16 - Movie Night
◆ · Por Sendhil Revuluri · Publicado 2024-05-13T14:08:46.282Z
Constructor's Note
It's been a while, so time for a new word ladder! In case you haven’t solved one before, each row differs from an adjacent row by exactly one letter; the circled space indicates the letter that is different from the previous row. to If you haven't watched the 2021 film or read the 1965 novel, some of the cluing angles may be obscure. Using helpers is encouraged. Feedback welcome. Thanks for solving!
