Netflix TV Show - The Queen's Gambit
If anyone hasn't seen this show, I highly recommend it. Watched it out of the blue before I read any reviews. Was pleasantly surprised.

Loved it. "Hoosiers" for the endgame crowd.

I just wish it had some gratuitous nudity. (The women, not the Russian grandmasters.)

Oh, and Bruce Pandolfini and Garry Kasparov were technical consultants on the series if you're concerned about the accuracy of the chess. |

"Searching for Bobby Fischer" was my favorite until this one.

Best thing I've watched in a very very long time. Riveting. Sorry to see it end.

Absolutely loved it. I know next to nothing about chess, and I still enjoyed it. Might have to pick it up as a hobby!

I mentioned Bruce Pandolfini in my post above, that is Ben Kingsley's character in "Searching for Bobby Fischer". Seems Chess is a pretty small world.
