Chess Grandmaster Susan Polgar reacts to seven memorable movie and TV scenes featuring chess games and rates them based on their technical accuracy.
She looks at various scenes from "The Queen's Gambit" (2020) and "From Russia with Love" (1963). Polgar rates the psychology of players in "X-Men" (2000), and "Queen of Katwe" (2016). She looks at the accuracy of opening moves in "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" (2001) and "Pawn Sacrifice" (2014). She also discusses the inaccuracy of TV chess boards, such as in "Friends" (2003).
Polgar was the women's world chess champion from 1996 to 1999. In 1991 she became the third woman to be awarded the title of grandmaster by the World Chess Federation (FIDE), and she has won 12 medals at the Women's Chess Olympiad. She is currently head of the Susan Polgar Institute for Chess Excellence at Webster University and has served as co-chair of the FIDE Commission for Women's Chess.

Chess is the Game of life Opponent's moves are sometimes perdictable and sometimes surprising While setting a trap you get to control the weak player in order to win the game. To build a strong game you have to make the pawns strong by protecting them in chain.Which is the similar to how a Kingdom becomes strong. If you fell into the trap its like trusting the scammers,and if you understood the trap you won't fell for it. There are 1000s of life lessons in this Game, the series was rather busy in depicting emotions, anxiety etc. Hence it was made for non-chess players as well

@@Ryan9210 But she's telling the truth. Men were not very welcoming to women chess players. In fact, male players at that time didn't think a woman's brain could handle the complexities of the game. There is one event where Susan had to be protected by her father and taken out from the hotel she was staying in because she had received death threats. It was THAT bad. Another incident was a GM telling her that a woman's place was in the kitchen or the bedroom only. Even Kasparov was extremely sexist to female players saying that women could never be good chess players because they were bad fighters. Kasparov has now done a 180 on his views and the reason for that change are the Polgar sisters - Susan, Sofia and Judit (Judit beat Kasparov at 24 yrs old and became the first woman to beat him).

What's so interesting about all 3 is because they were not prodigies. They were the result of years of "experiment" by their father Lazlo Polgar. Lazlo was a developmental psychologist and be believed that "genius was made, not born".so he sought to prove his theory on his daughters. Susan picked chess on a whim and Lazlo devoted hours and hours of specialized training on his daughters. One key thing he focused on was that the girls loved the game. If they learned to love the game, they could do well. So Lazlo started to create stories about the pieces, made the training fun and enjoyable. It was tough for all 3 and they faced a lot of sexism but their father continually encouraged them. I honestly think their story is much more interesting than the series.

An interesting detail about that chess game was there was more than one way to win in the final position.

So the chess game actually provides additional characterization for Ron.

I wish they would've covered the Game of Shadows scene as well, because that scene depicted a style of chess not seen in the modern world all that often. And I also think that chess moves need to be clearly seen an setup in films so that people can follow very easily. Case in point The Philosopher's (Sorcerer's) Stone where you can't really see all the pieces or exact positions.

There's even a short film made by Pixar called Geri's Game. An elderly man called Geri set up a chess game in the middle of the park and played by himself by taking off his glasses and playing as the opponent. Soon the white pieces are captured turn after turn leaving the king behind. To outsmart himself, Geri (with glasses on) faked his heart attack, rotated the board and played as the black team. Then he moved the black queen right next to the white king which ended the game.

I enjoyed this video. In the last scene, two people were playing chess and the corner square was black. Susan said that the corner square was supposed to be white. That means the board is offcially set up incorrectly, but this scene can still be very realistic because maybe the people (who are not chess experts) in the video don''t even know how to set up the board correctly. A lot of people who are non chess experts don't know how to set up a chess board properly, that means the chess scence is realistic! Hope this makes sense! I think if there is a chess board in a commercial, then the board should be set up correctly.

The finale episode of Queen's Gambit has Hikaru Nakamura stated as not everything is stated is in real life, but they do it for good TV. Draw when losing is a boogeyman's scare, and most GMs just give brief handshakes and then move on if anyone resigns or a draw is declared. And in tournaments, chess is also a quiet game like golf, noise can distract the players, especially when other matches are in play and the cheer can be disruptive.

Yeah, but classical time control chess, for example, can easily go for over five hours. So you have to speed it up. I think anyone who knows chess, knows there's a wide spectrum of time controls. People who don't know chess, probably don't think too much about what's going on. People are frequently uneducated about stuff. For example, for decades I have tried to explain to people about Minnesota Fats. The movie the Hustler came out, then Ralph Wanderone claimed HE was the real Minnesota Fats, and he wasn't even from Minnesota. Then he goes on TV, Wide World of Sports, and gets his clock cleaned by a real pool champion, Mosconi. Did people then realized Fats was conning everyone? No. A lot of people who know little about the history of pool, and who were generally around in the era where people knew about Fats, think Fats was some pool legend...legend in his own mind, and yeah, he did have name recognition. But as a pool player, not world class.

@@marcela.miranda actually its not, you can do it too. Is just a big long table with many boards, and the player just go moving on one board at the time. Tecnically is what you do on chess sites playing 50 dudes in mail chess mode. More difficult is playing all these simultanepus games with clock, because you need to move quicker, lkterrally, your feets and hands 🤣 Whats really a genious thing to do is to play a blindfold match, in wich you play without looking at the board. All the match is in your head. Now, imagine playing simoultaneous blindfold chess with 48 other people. Thats it, this is the extraordinary among extraordinary.

@@davicorosello1588 playing chess blindfolded itself is impossible without knocking over the pieces, no matter how good you are. The spaces between the pieces are probably only 1-2 cm, and how can you tell what the opponent is doing. Well I can't blame you if it's only your imagination, but don't start thinking playing 326 games simultaneously is easy.

I have seen a game where someone lost a minor piece in the first 10 moves ( lost, not sacced,) and they resigned. Probably partly in disgust. But it's probably hard to win a knight or bishop down, when there's no compensation.

Endeavour S04E01 "Game" (TV, 8 January 2017) "Whilst Professor Amory unveils his chess-playing computer Jason and crime novelist Kent Finn signs copies of his latest book, the body of Dr Nielsen, a member of the computer team, is dragged from the river and some time later a series of drownings is discovered at the local baths. The pattern of the murders suggests a serial killer with a knowledge of chess moves, and Morse finds a link between one of the victims and another member of Amory's team with a further possible connection to Finn. However, Morse deduces, with some help from Jason, that the culprit is not a random killer but one seeking vengeance on those he believed wronged him in the past. At the same time, Morse feels unable to comfort Thursday and his wife after their daughter Joan mysteriously left them." (FYI July, 1967)
