Our shop just received an interesting new DVD: A Tribute to Bobby Fischer.

It is made by legendary Grandmaster Roman Dzindzichashvili, and is full of engaging stuff:
  • Never published commentary & facts about Fischer's life
  • The evolution of Bobby Fischer from age 12
  • How the Soviet Union ordered all their greatest GMs
  • to prepare Spassky to beat Fischer in 1972
  • how Fischer requested to play Roman in the eighties
  • Dzindzi's favourite Fischer games, rarely analyzed
  • Fischer vs Karpov: who was better?
  • and who was better, Fischer or Kasparov?
  • Karpov speaks out on Fischer, annotates the 1972 Match.
  • rare footage from the Fischer-Spassky 1992 rematch.


More than 3 hours of video, please have a look here.
