they strangle you to death.

you attack them from everywhere,
333

is react.

can't do anything.

Boris Spassky
in the final match.
528
00:37:44,847 --> 00:37:46,599
Fischer, whose demands
for more money
529
00:37:46,724 --> 00:37:48,517
have infuriated
tournament promoters,
530
00:37:49,143 --> 00:37:51,938
has won a remarkable
eight matches in a row.
531
00:37:52,563 --> 00:37:55,691
But tomorrow will definitely
be his greatest test.
532
00:37:57,985 --> 00:38:03,074
Pawn to king three.
Queen to king one.
Knight to rook four...
533
00:38:03,783 --> 00:38:05,034
What?
534
00:38:05,117 --> 00:38:06,285
Uh...
535
00:38:06,869 --> 00:38:08,371
I, uh...
536
00:38:08,955 --> 00:38:10,706
I like to play
the King's Indian,
537
00:38:10,831 --> 00:38:12,583
but he's an expert
on the Samisch, so...
538
00:38:12,667 --> 00:38:13,709
Who?
539
00:38:13,793 --> 00:38:16,003
Spassky. So I thought
maybe a Grunfeld,
540
00:38:16,087 --> 00:38:19,632
but then I have to find an answer
to pawn bishop four.
541
00:38:19,715 --> 00:38:22,718
You know, I was wondering,
did you reach your mom yet?
542
00:38:23,761 --> 00:38:25,388
I bet she'd be proud.
543
00:38:26,681 --> 00:38:27,890
Uh...
544
00:38:28,599 --> 00:38:31,268
I need to go through this.
545
00:38:31,394 --> 00:38:34,105
I need to work through this,
so I thought maybe...
546
00:38:34,855 --> 00:38:36,065
Uh...
547
00:38:38,859 --> 00:38:40,528
Sure. Yeah.
548
00:38:41,278 --> 00:38:42,571
Well, that was great
for me, too.
549
00:38:42,989 --> 00:38:43,990
Thank you.
550
00:38:44,073 --> 00:38:45,241
Oh, yeah. Thank you.
551
00:39:59,273 --> 00:40:00,483
How you feeling?
552
00:40:00,566 --> 00:40:01,567
I'm fine.
553
00:40:02,860 --> 00:40:03,861
Did you eat?
554
00:40:04,653 --> 00:40:06,113
You mind not talking?
555
00:40:14,121 --> 00:40:15,539
That's good.
Okay.
556
00:40:15,623 --> 00:40:16,624
Thanks.
557
00:40:45,653 --> 00:40:47,113
REPORTER: Bobby,
how does it feel to lose?
558
00:40:47,238 --> 00:40:48,697
That's a stupid question.
559
00:40:48,781 --> 00:40:51,867
How'd he beat you, Bob?
Would you understand if I answered that?
560
00:40:52,535 --> 00:40:53,828
He was playing to draw.
561
00:40:53,911 --> 00:40:55,955
Bobby, no one expected you
to beat Spassky.
562
00:40:56,038 --> 00:40:57,039
Yeah, I did.
563
00:40:57,123 --> 00:40:58,916
They're waiting to give you
the runner's-up medal.
564
00:40:58,999 --> 00:41:00,334
Ha! No thanks.
565
00:41:01,377 --> 00:41:04,713
At least, uh, talk to the TV people!
Oh, forget him. Forget him.
566

(ALL APPLAUDING)
567
00:42:03,647 --> 00:42:05,441
He's disappeared.
He'll be back.
568
00:42:07,151 --> 00:42:08,611
What makes you
so sure?
569
00:42:08,736 --> 00:42:11,697
It's all that matters to him.
Without chess, he doesn't exist.
570
00:42:12,072 --> 00:42:13,616
You think he can
ever beat Spassky?
571
00:42:15,201 --> 00:42:16,493
Hypothetically,
572
00:42:17,328 --> 00:42:20,164
what would it take
to make him world champion?
573
00:42:21,957 --> 00:42:25,502
The desk clerk asked why we
were making so many calls to D.C.
574
00:42:25,586 --> 00:42:27,129
I haven't been calling D.C.
575
00:42:28,756 --> 00:42:30,049
Who've you been
talking to?
576
00:42:30,132 --> 00:42:31,717
There are people
in high places
577
00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:33,636
who take an interest
in any confrontation
578
00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:34,803
between us
and the Soviet Union.
579
00:42:34,887 --> 00:42:36,096
State Department? CIA?
580
00:42:36,805 --> 00:42:37,806
White House?
581
00:42:38,724 --> 00:42:40,601
Bobby wants limos,
he gets limos.
582
00:42:40,684 --> 00:42:43,103
And they'll throw
in "honorariums" for each victory.
583
00:42:43,187 --> 00:42:44,480
Paid for by whom?
584
00:42:46,857 --> 00:42:48,359
Are you a patriot, Father?
585
00:42:49,944 --> 00:42:50,986
Mostly.
586
00:42:52,112 --> 00:42:53,781
Bobby may be a little off,
587
00:42:53,864 --> 00:42:56,659
but he understands
this whole thing better than you.
588
00:42:56,742 --> 00:42:57,910
We're at war.
589
00:42:58,911 --> 00:43:02,915
Only it's not being fought
by guns and missiles. Not yet, at least.
590
00:43:03,207 --> 00:43:04,917
It's a war of perception.
591
00:43:05,626 --> 00:43:10,631
The poor kid from Brooklyn against
the whole Soviet Empire.
592
00:43:10,923 --> 00:43:12,591
The perfect American story.
593
00:43:12,675 --> 00:43:14,551
So your interest in
this is ideological.
594
00:43:17,554 --> 00:43:19,390
But what's in it for you?
595
00:43:20,057 --> 00:43:23,269
There's such a thing
as doing well by doing good.
596
00:43:24,103 --> 00:43:25,980
And you haven't
answered my question.
597
00:43:26,397 --> 00:43:27,606
Bobby Fischer...
598
00:43:28,816 --> 00:43:32,820
Bobby Fischer is the second best
chess player I've ever seen.
599
00:43:36,532 --> 00:43:38,172
He's also got severe
problems in his head.
600
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:40,661
Which need to be
understood and managed.
601
00:43:40,744 --> 00:43:42,288
Managed? Bobby?
602
00:43:44,832 --> 00:43:46,458
You ever hear
of Paul Morphy?
603
00:43:47,501 --> 00:43:50,421
1855. Greatest player
this country ever had.
604
00:43:50,504 --> 00:43:53,590
Before Bobby, that is.
But by 21,
605
00:43:55,134 --> 00:43:57,761
he'd beat every
master in Europe.
606
00:43:58,846 --> 00:44:02,391
But then, things started
to get a little weird.
607
00:44:03,892 --> 00:44:07,021
He started having visions,
and became
608
00:44:08,188 --> 00:44:09,481
convinced that people
were trying to
609
00:44:09,565 --> 00:44:11,233
poison him, and he quit
610
00:44:12,484 --> 00:44:14,111
at 26,
611
00:44:14,737 --> 00:44:17,573
and eventually
killed himself
612
00:44:18,115 --> 00:44:21,035
in a bathtub surrounded by 12 pairs
of ladies' shoes.
613
00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:24,872
So, this game...
614
00:44:30,753 --> 00:44:32,129
It's a rabbit hole.
615
00:44:35,632 --> 00:44:39,511
After only four moves, there's more
than 300 billion options to consider.
616
00:44:39,595 --> 00:44:42,931
There's more 40-move games
than there are stars in the galaxy.
617
00:44:43,932 --> 00:44:47,728
So, it can take you
very close to the edge.

PAUL: Could he win?
619
00:45:02,242 --> 00:45:04,036
If Bobby were to go
for the title,
620
00:45:04,119 --> 00:45:05,679
it would mean
traveling around the world
621

playing tournaments
for three years.
622
00:45:08,457 --> 00:45:10,542
In my opinion,
he might not make it that long.
623
00:45:10,626 --> 00:45:12,294
It's your job
to see that he does.
624
00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:18,842
If we can ever find him.

1377
01:39:08,861 --> 01:39:10,779
it looks as though
whoever wins this game
1378
01:39:10,863 --> 01:39:12,990
will most likely go on
to take the entire match.
1379
01:39:13,073 --> 01:39:15,784
This one game, Game Six,
will determine the outcome?
1380
01:39:15,868 --> 01:39:16,869
I certainly think so.
1381
01:39:17,202 --> 01:39:19,455
MAN: Well, now we'll just
have to see what happens.
1382
01:39:19,538 --> 01:39:22,041
Fischer has agreed to return
to play in the Main Hall.
1383
01:39:24,209 --> 01:39:26,712
SCHMID: Press can step back,
please. Thank you.

(SPEAKING RUSSIAN)
1385
01:40:22,184 --> 01:40:23,310
What's he doing?
1386
01:40:23,936 --> 01:40:26,188
COMMENTATOR:
We all can't quite
believe it up here, Jim,
1387
01:40:26,271 --> 01:40:28,440
but in this,
the pivotal game of the match,
1388
01:40:28,774 --> 01:40:31,860
Fischer has abandoned
his trademark Sicilian opening.
1389
01:40:32,111 --> 01:40:36,198
All of Spassky's careful preparation
is suddenly out the window.
1390
01:40:56,969 --> 01:40:59,680
STAN JENKINS:
Grandmasters are shaking
their heads in confusion.
1391
01:40:59,763 --> 01:41:02,349
Fischer's moves
are unprecedented in chess history.
1392
01:41:02,725 --> 01:41:06,145
No one seems to be
able to decipher what he's doing.
1393

(AUDIENCE APPLAUDING)
1398
01:42:53,126 --> 01:42:54,294
Bravo.

(ALL CHEERING)
1400
01:43:09,810 --> 01:43:12,855
Grandmasters never applaud
an opponent's victory,
1401
01:43:13,105 --> 01:43:16,149
but I guess this is something
no one has ever seen before.
1402
01:44:24,509 --> 01:44:26,219
BILL: Bobby?
Can I get you anything?
1403
01:44:27,387 --> 01:44:28,555
No, thanks.
1404
01:44:30,515 --> 01:44:32,184
It'll be light soon.
1405
01:44:32,726 --> 01:44:34,519
Yeah, it's never
really dark here.
1406
01:44:49,993 --> 01:44:50,994
Bobby.
1407
01:44:54,373 --> 01:44:56,792
The chess you've been playing
is really inspired.
1408
01:45:07,260 --> 01:45:10,597
It's almost all
theory and memorization.
1409
01:45:12,391 --> 01:45:14,559
People think there are
all these options,
1410
01:45:17,688 --> 01:45:19,564
but there's usually
one right move.
1411
01:45:21,066 --> 01:45:23,735
Of course, in the end,
there's no place to go.

BOBBY: The United States
is based on lies, it's based on theft.
1414
01:47:33,949 --> 01:47:35,269
Look at all I've
done for the U.S.
1415
01:47:35,325 --> 01:47:37,577
But now I'm not
useful anymore, you see?
1416
01:47:37,661 --> 01:47:41,206
The Cold War is over,
and now they want to put me in prison.
1417
01:47:43,625 --> 01:47:47,254
I'm not sure,
but if I know the Jews and the U.S.,
1418
01:47:47,337 --> 01:47:50,715
they may come at me
with some attack I don't expect.
1419
01:47:51,216 --> 01:47:54,803
Life is like that when people are
living in a dream world.
1420
01:47:54,886 --> 01:47:56,805
It's not really paradoxical.
1421
01:47:57,222 --> 01:48:00,725
Chess is basically
a search for truth, right?
1422
01:48:01,226 --> 01:48:03,770
So, I'm searching
for the truth.
