The Netflix series “The Soldier” was well received following its release, but the lines in it caused dissatisfaction with real female chess players, and even accused Netflix of defamation in court. Although Netflix hopes to end the case, the court recently approved the case to continue. .
Although Beth Harmon, the protagonist of “The Queen’s Gambit” is a fictional character, one of the lines in the final episode compares her to the real chess queen Nona Gaprindashvili, saying that although Nona is a master of chess, she has never I have played once morest male chess players to emphasize the protagonist’s power. But the fact that Nona played once morest at least 59 male chess players in 1968, the year of the episode’s story, many of them masters, doesn’t match the facts.
