    PAWN SACRIFICE Screenplay by Steven Knight Story by Stephen J Rivele & Christopher Wilkinson and Steven Knight OVER BLACK: "Chess holds its master in its bonds, shackling the mind such that the inner freedom of the very strongest must suffer." - ALBERT EINSTEIN 1 EXT. GRANITE COUNTRY HOUSE - ICELAND - DAWN 1 In the grey dawn, a formidable house in the Icelandic wilderness. A single light burns in an upper window. Caption: Reykjavik, Iceland 4:15am. July 20th, 1972 In the distance, a POLICE CAR approaches, lights flashing. 2 INT. GRANITE COUNTRY HOUSE - ICELAND 2 CLOSE on a hand gripping the padded arm of an armchair. The index finger of the hand is PICKING at a thread. The HAND belongs to an intense young man with black hair swept back. He sits motionless, peering at a chess game which is a few moves old. The man is BOBBY FISCHER. A SINGLE FLY begins to buzz against the window. Bobby eyes the fly. The movement of his eyes is immense. Murderous. The thread he has been picking at suddenly TEARS with a THUNDEROUS RIPPING SOUND. The fly is trying to get out the window. 3 BOBBY'S PERCEPTION 3 The BUZZING of the fly is a howling hurricane from hell. 4 BACK TO AN OBJECTIVE VIEW OF THE ROOM 4 Silence. Bobby stalks the fly -- CRUSHING IT with a coffee cup. He sits back down in a business-like way and stares at the board again, his fingernail beginning to work another thread. HEADLIGHTS sweep the room and we HEAR a car door SLAM.

A lot according to Jenny Bradley's startlingly original take on the law, education, mediation, adultery, and, of course, other lawyers. Inside Baseball from Jenny Bradley, a Family Law Attorney in Cary, North Carolina. Jenny's a jock, a nerd, and a lawyer. None of that is mutually exclusive. She has been involved in competitions great and small –- softball, math bowl, 80’s trivia, and bicycling. She loves games. And she loves practicing law. Mostly. My Journey Through Other People’s Lives By Jenny Bradley For more information on the author please go to: TriangleSmartDivorce.com Look for TriangleSmartDivorce on Facebook Some of these stories are about me, they are reasonably accurate. Some are client/court studies and while real, have been altered in ways to preserve anonymity and/or confidentiality. Sometimes, I’ve resorted to Hollywood’s well tested condensed characters to make things a bit easier to understand – and for me to write. One more thing – nothing in this book is legal advice. I’m not your lawyer, you’re not my client. If you think you see your particular legal issue somewhere in these pages you are flat out wrong. Law doesn’t work that way. Especially family law.

  • Un Film Que Sólo En Parte Es Sobre Bobby Fischer. Es Sobre Todos Nosotros”- NY Times
    PRESENTA “Un film que sólo en parte es sobre Bobby Fischer. Es sobre todos nosotros”- NY Times LA JUGADA MAESTRA (Pawn Sacrifice) Dirigida por Edward Zwick (El último Samurai, Diamante de Sangre) Con Tobey Maguire y Liev Schreiber SINOPSIS En esta atrapante historia real que ocurre durante el punto más álgido de la Guerra Fría, el ajedrecista prodigio de Estados Unidos, Bobby Fischer (Tobey Maguire), se encuentra en medio de la lucha entre dos súper potencias cuando desafía al imperio soviético. Con la participación de Liev Shreiber y Peter Sarsgaard, "La Jugada Maestra" es la crónica de los terribles conflictos de Fisher entre el genio y la locura, y del auge y la caída de un chico de Brooklyn que capturó la imaginación del mundo entero. LA PROFUNDIDAD DE UN ACTOR En “la jugada maestra” Tobey Maguire es Bobby Fischer, el brillante jugador de ajedrez cuyo genio lo convirtió en el primer estadounidense en convertirse en campeón mundial y luego lo llevó a una oscuridad que lo consumiría en su edad adulta. La crítica remarca como Maguire “transmite de manera impresionante los gestos erráticos del ajedrecista y su penetrante mirada”. Es más, Maguire capta la compleja psicología de Fischer: por un lado, un genio alcanzando el fino borde de la locura; por el otro, un joven ambicioso por encontrar su lugar en el mundo. Habiendo comenzado su carrera como un niño actor con un sentido de propósito adulto, Maguire ha madurado como un serio actor que a menudo encuentra el niño interior en sus personajes. Algunos de sus films más aclamados son: “The ice storm”, “The cider house rules”, “Spider Man”, “Seabiscuit” y “The Great Gatsby”.
