The Queen's Gambit | Beth Harmon vs Harry Beltik

Love the series seriously

Why she left?🤔

Something I've been noticing about "The Queen's Gambit" is the interesting use of color and lighting and particularly in regard to male characters even if they're simply extras. People in the background are often shown in drab colors in cold, white overhead lighting. I'm sure this is to keep the viewer focussed on the game rather than the people watching it. In this scene Beth is shown in indirect light/in shadow while Harry is shown in direct lighting and his skin is very pale. Even when Benny gets the news that Beth won in Russia, the guys with him are shown in the same drab colors and cold lighting as elsewhere in the series. I don't think there's anything necessarily sexist in how men are shown in "The Queen's Gambit" as there were simply so few women involved in the chess scene where Beth played and competed.

They're missing the drama of the clock ticking- ticking- the long periods of mystery and difficulty, the montage where nothing happens.

Duddley Dursley right there.. menacing show i just foud about it deff gonna watch it

He was in need of a good smackdown to his ego, and Beth gave it to him! Ironic as he and the others she beat wound up becoming her closest friends and supporters!

Nice dirty trick with the teeth

What are they writing down? The piece moves?

We need trash talking in actual real life chess. Would love to see Hikaru talking smack!

Hollywood really needs to produce more content of extremely confident women humiliating smug men. As a matter of fact, I think they should try to make scenes involving men and women as emasculating as possible for the man. There needs to be a very strong message sent that says men are totally pathetic and worthless while women are stunning, brave, beautiful, intelligent, and can do anything and everything far better than any man.

If Hollywood would just do more of this, I think they could really boost their audience numbers….

I'm watching and enjoying this series. I also appreciated Beth stifling a burp in this clip while Beltik is entering: this confirms the image of a polite cute girl I had of Beth.

BAD HARMON ÇOK BED BİR İSİM.

Interesting point is that Beth used two knights variation against Caro-Kann defense chosen by Harry. This variation was Robert Fischer’s favorite against Caro and Robert Fischer personality inspired the character of Beth Harmon.
