by WOLFGANG KOHLHAASE translated by ROBERT BRYCE
with Peter Vaughan as Lodek, Cyril Shaps as Griinstein and Michael Goldie as the Greek
'I could really do with that move with the knight. Grunsteins' move with the knight. Whenever I play the Spanish opening, I think of Griinstein. But I'm blessed if I can remember his move. Too long ago now.... he was from Poland and he couldn't even play chess. That's the funny thing about it.'
