Inspired by the viral word game #Wordle, a #XWordle is a combination of a Crossword AND a #Wordle.

Based on feedback from solvers, I have made the following changes – 1. The picture hints are not immediately visible. However you can still get hints by clicking on “Reveal”. 2. I have reduced the number of letter hints available. Both these might make it a bit harder to get the final XWordle but I think it is still very do-able. Do share your comments and feedback and tell your friends too.. Enjoy

Instructions

Each clue as well as the final XWordle points to the name of an English Movie. However, none of the clues are in their right locations.

Solve each cryptic clue to find the correct answer and then enter these in the correct location. There are helpful letter hints provided to assist you in the same. You can also click on REVEAL for a picture hint. On Mobile or Smaller Screens you might need to click on the Clue list Icon to see the clues

Finally, solve for the final XWordle using the Wordle colour scheme.

The Ochre squares indicate the letters in the final XWordle which are in wrong places and the Green squares indicate the letters in the final XWordle in the right places.

Please put the answer to the XWordle in the comments below. Names of those who get it correct will be announced in the solutions post.

Please put the answer to the Wordle in the comments below. I will announce the names of all those who get it correct in the blog.
