I don't know what Stefan Zweig would say, but I really liked the imaginative audacity with which Alfréd Radok seized his book. He made a fictional TV broadcast in which some of the actors play themselves, some play others... And the others, they don't even know if they're actors or who they really are. Reporters interrupt their speech, illuminators shine light into the image, there is confusion on the set, and a documentary film enters it all, and it might as well be about Jára Cimrman. The atmosphere is mostly funny, but it can also be chilling. Seventeen years later a more traditional adaptation of Královská hra was created, in which Rudolf Hrušínský played the character of the chess grandmaster again.
