Storyline
It's not about a game, it's about the cost of genius. Take a deeper look into how Scott Frank, Anya Taylor-Joy, and the team behind The Queen's Gambit brought this acclaimed series to life.
When I watch a backstage doc, I expect to hear about the crew's opinions on the way they approached making it. I don't care about the protagonist narating what they see in their character. I care about what the DP has to say, the director, the production team, the designers. Unfortunately this short doc is mostly wasted on the opinion of the main actress about her role.
