Beth’s Harmon’s Final Chess Game | The Queen’s Gambit – Full Scene
In a 1950s orphanage, a young girl reveals an astonishing talent for chess and begins an unlikely journey to stardom while grappling with addiction.
👍👌👏 What a very wonderful ending! I swear that someone is peeling onions right behind me.
The colors of Beth's outfits are so reflective on the character, with her wearing the light green to match the pills at the beginning, constantly her clothes reflect her mental state, and at the end, when she buttons up the white jacket over the black shirt, I feel as if it symbolizes her choosing the light over the dark and hope over drugs/alcohol and pushing through it and being on the rise from her lows.
It's my turn
The Queen's Gambit , The Royal Dossier , Jackie Bessette Kennedy , The final Chess , it's your game
After this series I will like chess
I like how the antagonist isn't a stereotypical Russian but Beth herself. Great story arc. Respectful.
3:11 Damn her queen outfit… she inspires so many people to play chess and love the game… also soudtrack in this series is a glorious masterpiece.
This series made me love chess and start play it and I would be master in it in the future ❤
She's so stunningly beautiful, I'm not convinced she's even human, this young woman is goin' places
Hope Hellywood doesn't ruin her…..
Сыграем;)Beautiful 💕
The thing that I realized a bit later that Borgov spoke in English as he lost. We all assumed that he does not know any English, but he did. He revealed it finally as he lost.
They somehow managed to make chess matches feel like big action sequences in movies. Great show.
I don’t know by we have to root for this druggie thief with sharp cheek bones
This show could not get made today. The Russian's are all portrayed as decent, normal people which is of course now politically incorrect.
CU
HOT TAKE: I think there was a part of Beth, however small, that saw Borgov as a father figure. She feared and respected him, and I think Borgov respected and even admired her as well. His imposing presence really does something to her. Borgov even compares Beth's struggle with his own as a Russian, like they're kindred spirits somehow. There's this desire for approval in many of Beth's interactions with him. But you get the sense that Borgov doesn't want to crush her. He just wants to elevate the game.
If you've never read the original novel by Walter Tevis, do so. It is riveting! I never thought I could care so much about whether someone won or lost a game of chess.
Why did he insist that she take the king ? Will she unscrew it and find a message inside saying he wants to defect ? So he lost deliberately ? And then we have series 2 about getting him to the US where they have the real match ?
I'm a producer at Netflix we only want shows where women dominate men. New shows often include women hitting men and men saying nothing, being yelled at, men being idiots, women being much more capable with no training etc. This is the way of the future for woke America. We also include black and LGBTIQ+ to make them dominate men also. Women and children first, men are obsolete.
King of North and theon greyjoy are both in it.
i have court papers i will try hmm
iam hmm grr wrong
i will be wrong hmm
my name is wes
iam papers grr wesley james urie canada hmm
It just occurred to me that the old guy she plays in the park looks a bit like Mr Shaibel. Giving her that squinty, lets-see-what-you-got look.
Love it. ❤️
Love the ending in the park with the old guys. Chess isn't about politics or anything like that, it's a beautiful battle between minds. No matter who you are, or where you're from, we're all equal on the Chessboard.
Why would you make the title of the video a spoiler for those of us who are watching our way through the show. Thanks?? "Just so you know, this is the final scene of the whole show"
5:56 How funny would it have been if she said " You c*ck sucker!!!" instead..
God Bless The Holy Soul of Esmeralda my Wives Holy Spirit whom I married under God and I will always love. Forever. The Arch Angel Revelation.
5:53 his eyes look familiar, don´t they?
Still one of my fave series. Thank you Netflix
Queen's gambit
Beautiful❤🎉
I loved this series and couldn't stop watching it, but like Bridgerton, it never happened. I suspect that younger viewers won't realize that. I have noticed that Netflix shows love to rewrite history with their utopian vision of what should have happened.
A top notch drama in every aspect….loved it
this will forever be my PERFECT netflix show. there is no villain, only resilience and love for a game and each other.
I love 💕💕 Beth
Liza didn't want the fame, she wanted the game, so much respect these men must have felt knowing she saw them instead of the Political Elite, so much to play at a street level. Excellent cinematography, camera in step, then a pan stop as she walked down towards the men…excellent, simply excellent.
The directing and storytelling of this short 6 minute sequence are impeccable. There is very little dialogue but you can tell that Beth goes from disbelief in realizing she won to fully accepting her place atop the chess world to then realizing that not only is she loved and supported by Americans but also by the Russians. Those that are competitive like Borgov and Vasily but also by the common chess player in the park who recognizes her and calls his friends over to just watch her play the game they all love together.
It's also a beautiful juxtaposition of how the game is still the game regardless of whether there are major stakes around it or a casual game at a park. At the end of the day, it's two people who love a game coming together to play with one another. And that simplicity is absolutely beautiful.
Sorry but no way a Russian champion would handle a loss like that! Great movie but the ending was total BS!
i love how this series is like a journey of Beth collecting her true family members
jolene is her big sister
mrs wheatley is her mom
mr shaibel is her dad
harry, benny and the twins are her brothers
really show how sometimes family doesnt have to be blood-related
What an actress and what a great movie. One of the best films I've seen in recent years.
It wasnt a checkmate so how did beth win
I absolutely adore Beth , Her power (especially around men she knows could possibly beat her) , but acting like She will always win…. Absolutely iconic, I inspire to be her
Best scene in the whole series, the one in the park! This actress is really incredible.
She was a great character
I use to win a lot in chess (93%) till I played in my first tournament. One of my opponents in the tourney ask me if I win a lot by running my mouth. I didn't realize I was doing that. After that I played while trying to shut up, my wins sank to (79%).
Is talking a lot considered a strategy? Did my talking make me play better or did it make my opponent play worse? Both?
See, their I go rambling on & on & on…..😬
Her iconic outfit as the white queen is my favorite part of this series🥹
