Under the direction of Edward Zwick and with script by Steven Knight, PAWN SACRIFICE bodes a cinematographic structure as dynamic and unforgettable as Fischer’s Queen’s Gambit play in Game 6 of the 1972 Fischer-Spassky chess match, the subjects of PAWN SACRIFICE. Delving into the genius behind the madness that was chess champion Bobby Fischer, PAWN SACRIFICE is masterful brilliance as both a character study and socio-political commentary. Tobey Maguire is Oscar-worthy as Bobby Fischer, perfectly matched move-for-move by Liev Schreiber’s flawless performance as Boris Spassky.
Directed by Edward Zwick, the film stars Tobey Maguire, Liev Schreiber, Peter Sarsgaard, Michael Stuhlbarg, Lily Rabe and Robin Weigert.
