My GoogleFu, usually very strong, left me. Do you have any idea where the game[s] in the movie "Knight Moves" come from, especially the one given? Neither Wiki, nor IMDB, nor LiChess database, nor chessgames.com, nor wild goose googling returned any useful information (or I overlooked it).

  • If it could be of any use, the chess advisor seems to be some Marty Kolt. I haven't found much on google, and some of the results aren't available in my country (?). – emdio Jun 03 '22 at 09:41
  • Three games in this movie, all of them displaying a level of chess you'd expect from a 1700. A waste of time. They got about everything chess-related wrong; Gardés, adjournings, blunder by GM Lutz, patzering analysis by his second, the joy of winning against terrible battle chess, another silly adjourning; and - tada! - the clou to the crimes related to squares without information which piece moved; just ridiculous, I'm afraid. Oh and how often he gets laid; unheard of in chess! – Peter Fischer Jun 03 '22 at 17:40
  • @PeterFischer: You bet the film (and the game I posted) got the deserved roast in our club zine :-) – Hauke Reddmann Jun 04 '22 at 17:28
