The Queen's Gambit (2020)



 

Orphaned at 9, prodigious introvert Beth Harmon discovers and masters the game of chess in 1960s USA. But, child stardom comes at a price. 

Top-notch TV production convinces with great period detail and managing to create a compelling story on an unusual topic (chess), but it's mainly Anya Taylor-Joy's compelling performance that made this TV mini-series so successful.
