Judit looking as hott as ever.
Good video, but something feels odd on the CNN site, where all they show is this video without any other explanation. I would have expected a 2-page article transcribing the text at least.
Just wonderful! Two brilliant legends!
Enjoyed the show, very nice cinematography, acting and interesting plot with the riffs on Fischer chess history. Later I reflected on how the typical disgusting Hollywood biases infiltrated the story. To wit : Only straight married men presented in the show were monsters. Other straight males were nerdy and unattractive (Harry) or egotistic and let the heroine down at a crucial point (Benny). Christianity gets several gratuitous slaps in the face during the series. Russian collusion was whitewashed, the more serious charge of making easy draws with each other was ignored. Their ace in the hole here was presented as their cooperation with each other (communism better than freedom and competition). Black friend was wonderful person in part because the wanted to be a "radical". So in many ways the plot tilted to the typical hollywood leftist cant
Best woman and best man of chess history.
Congratulations!!
Congratulations!!
I really enjoyed the way Judit still does a bit of trash-talking and was teasing Garry!
Long live women !
I prefer Bobby Fischer when he opens 1e4 and he says nothing, but they aren't too bad ...
