The watchman, consider, raised a chess player in her, instilled this maniacal love, and she never visited him. It was one of the most intensely dramatic moments.
At the moment when she was offered a draw, I firmly knew that she would not agree, it could not end like this, we were not going to this.

Well, a great, stylish, atmospheric series. To the extent of drama, to the extent of adventure, to the extent of experience. Just in moderation. Did not let you get bored for a second, viewed at a time from and to. By the way, Garry Kasparov is listed as a consultant, well, at least they didn't skimp on a real grandmaster, which means that the chess part is definitely in order. But I still read a lot of new things that I saw and heard here, although in general the series is suitable for those who do not know anything about chess at all, since it is not excessively full of professional terms.
And Anya Taylor-Joy. I coped with the role perfectly, the hit is one hundred percent, perfect. And her is the final "Shall we play?"! Mmm 🥰

What a powerful scene of Beth's return to the caretaker's room, it was already a tear.

Harry is doing a great job, finding the strength to get away from someone he likes, for the sake of a better future for himself and for her. This is rare

Have we exactly watched the same TV series? He was her chess mentor all her "childhood", so to speak, and taught her everything he knew. It was thanks to him that she learned about them in general and fell in love with them so much, so I will not agree with the fact that she herself, everything herself.

And so, in general, she certainly acted like a pig. Fuck with those $10, but for so many years, never visiting him is, of course, very powerful (in the bad sense of the word).

And why, with an attitude like Beth's foster parents, adopt children at all? For $80 a year? They chose it as a toy so that the wife would not be bored while her husband was away.
