You might like the short film below from AtomFilms called "CheckMating".
Synopsis: "A woman tests her dates over games of chess, with each contest taking on the mood of the relationship. She's in full control, knowing exactly what she wants in a man — until she finds it".

What are some good chess movies? old ones? indy films? foreign films? The only one I've ever seen is searching for bobby fischer, and it was great. Can someone recommend some other ones (that I can watch when my wife is already asleep) ?
