Review of The Luzhin Defence (2000) by John W — 16 Sep 2007
The plot is very interesting, but I didn't like Emily Watson's role very much. Nonetheless, John Turturro played the role of a mad genius perfectly. Of course, being a chess player myself helped me understand this movie more (since I know of several famous Grandmasters who lived similar lives).
