The queens gambit is based on a book tutned into a miniseries about beth, a nine year old orphan who befriends the janitor and learns how to play chess exceptionally well.

There are a few dumb scenes like here gobbling down the pills and her dancing around for no absoloute reason but, the story and acting of beth and the rest of the cast especially dudley dursley is so good

This was a no spoiler review so it is short but you can still watch this if you dont know about chess although you wouldbenjoy it even more if you like chess.
