The Week contest: Cheese heist
This week's question: British police are hunting for a gang of crooks who stole 24 tons of artisanal cheddar — worth about $390,000 — from a high-end London cheese shop. If Hollywood were to make a crime caper about this fine cheese robbery, what title should it give the movie?
