Garry Kasparov on Chess and His Life



I have always been mystified by chess so I watched this informed and informative portrait of Garry Kasparov talking about chess and his life in the former Soviet Union. He is interviewed by Sir David Frost. 




Last June in Manchester, Garry Kasparov took on Alan Turing's  "Paper Machine" - the first chess computer program ever written - for the first time in public, and Garry true to form wins in 16 moves.

    I have no clue about chess either, but I admire those who do well in any aspect of life.
