Re: King Me
It is a short dramatization of the 1992 match with actors playing the roles of MFT and Jonathan Schaeffer. I think Marion would have been very pleased with it. And yes, there are certain inaccuracies which all players will spot quickly, but these are minor. (Rather like The Queen's Gambit)

A nice little production, one wishes they could make a full film.

Re: King Me
King Me is an incredible short film, I first saw it when Pal Bucker shared it on the Facebook group STRAIGHT CHECKERS/DRAUGHTS.
It has the same title (King Me) as the full length movie of the Go As You Please Checkers World Championship in 2008, with first time challenger Lubabalo Kondlo taking on the long term champion Ron King.
A full length Tinsley movie would really be great!
