IMDb description: With an international chess tournament in progress, a young man becomes completely obsessed with the game. His fiancée has no interest in it, and becomes frustrated and depressed by his neglect of her, but wherever she goes she finds that she cannot escape chess. On the brink of giving up, she meets the world champion, Capablanca himself, with interesting results. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVF9JSpud8M

I teach chess in six schools here in San Francisco California as well as privately. I start each class with a 30 minute lecture based on a master-level game. I analyze the game during the lecture, using it as a teaching tool for my students. Capablanca's games get used a great deal because of his style of play. I am curious what your favorite Capablanca games are. I'm going to go through my list of Capablanca games and post one later this weekend. This is going to be a great group. Thank you so much for the invitation. On a funny note, one of my students, when asked who his favorite chess player was, said Capablanca. When I asked him why, the student said "because unlike the Russian players, it's easy to spell his name." Of course the young man was joking.
