Queen of Chess (2026)

wow, i love these sisters. i love judit...what an absolute badass to weather all that bullshit from the adult men she was decimating with so much humility and grace. i feel conflicted about how much air time they give kasparov, and i think it also serves as a great foil...his hubris and bigotry against her work ethic, humility, and grace. so glad i watched this tonight. so much great footage in this. the interviews with people who are not men are so great. the interviews with men...what do you expect? cannot believe that fucker kasparov cheated to win against a literal child and still cannot admit it to this day.
