The Queen's Gambit (2020)

It is a good show but it has a very big flaw : we learn absolutely nothing about chess. We often see the characters moving chess pieces on the board but it’s totally fake. Even in the last game, when you expect to see what they play, it is not shown… So in the end, this show is not about chess at all, but it is a drama about an orphan growing up, and alcohol and drugs, etc.. It could have been about soccer, or squash, or anything else…
