It never occurred to me that I would like something that has something to do with chess on my screen so much - my own endeavors to play that game, let's be tender here, were of a rather failing nature. Anyway, the role of Beth Harman is made for Anya Taylor-Joy and her acting is one of the strongest features of the show, but the rest is also top - a captivating and unique story, a fine production beaming us back right to the 50s and 60s, a great supporting cast. No doubt, The Queen's Gambit maybe will not work for everyone, but in that constant flood of mediocre and bad show and movies, The Queen's Gambit shines bright like the Morning Star. Well, last but not least, I put the novel written by Walter Tevis on my to read list.
