She will manage abrir to the eyes of that one man towards a world, the outside, different del that she locks in herself in a chess table. But Luzhin lacks defenses against the aggressions of the real world, and both universal they will collide with tragic consequences.
" The more important theoretical innovation of the Luzhin defense is the end of the postponed game. It is started again and the own Natalia plays following the annotations of Luzhin. Something improbable, of course. Pure fiction. The matches do not work thus. Gorris and the scriptwriter Peter Berry does not have itself bold to finish the film with the tragic suicide of Luzhin and there are addition to him substitute of happy end."
" The film I have liked. The novel also. One does not invalidate to the other, but they become rich mutually. It is at least what it has happened to me. I hope not to be único."
