A Decent Depiction on the Life of a Chess Titan

A fine portrayal on the life of world chess champion Alexander Alekhine from the time he won the world championship against José Raúl Capablanca in 1927 to his death in Portugal. This Russian film reveals the complex and controversial master as it shows the man's battles with politics, relationships, alcohol and world events around him. Good acting and scenic backdrops provide ocular appeal to the struggles of the mind in its attempt to master the vast universe of the 64 squares. Although the film fails to fully convey Alekhine's fascinating and inspiring life and tones down the Russian master's darker and more unpleasant side rendering the movie to a number of tedious spots this is a worthwhile view. History buffs and enthusiasts of the game won't mind seeing this.
