How long the documentary is?

Comment from several chessplayer, like Sofia
>Polgar. She says that she regrets meeting Fischer. He
>was such a hero for her but that image was scattered
>when Fischer visited the Polgars. They went out for
>dinner, played table tennis etc. Fischer became angry
>after Sofia gave a simul in the American club in
>Hungary.

Became angry because of such a trifle? Why?

Also comment from Seirawan. He was still
>positive about his eleven hour encounter with Fischer
>and dwelled on the sensitive issue why Fischer became
>anti-semitic.

And why he thinks Fischer became anti-Semitic? Because of his mother?

Hans Ree reacts and thinks Fischer went
>crazy. He refers to the killing of the elephants by
>jews because the trunk looks like uncircumcised penis.

Fischer stole the idea from Boba's forum! Do you remember the picture I send you last year?

Also early interviews with Fischer, where he
>tells he played chess against himself when he was
>young and that his mother send him to a chessclub.

And did they show his mother?

In
>that interview he makes a very open and friendly
>impression. Jan Timman understands Fischer�s
>resentment against the Russians. They made insipid
>jokes, he says, like if he wanted to meet Goethe.

And who said it? I read that Tal joked at Fischer, but Fischer and Tal were friends.

The
>At the end a quick reference to a
>possible marriage of Fischer with a Japanese woman but
>they don�t go any further into that.

Is she Japaneze or Chineze?

>When I get time I�ll send you a view pictures of the
>documentary.

You can place the pictures together with yer review about the documentary in the Internet. It is really very interesting and nobody ever placed it. Why not?
