Chess scene is sexier than remake's dance
Even though this version showed less, it was more romantic!
shareShe should be fondling the king instead of the queen though.
shareI believe she's fondling the bishop. The suggestiveness is in it's shape, not it's designation.
Well, thank God it wasn't the horse!!
Zolotoy: You are too funny! Just spit out my morning coffee reading your comment! In any event, the chess scene was exquisitely done, in my opinion. Renee Russo has NOTHING on Faye Dunaway. While the Brosnan re-make may be more fast-paced and updated for today's generation, the original is far superior when it comes to the "suggestive" scenes in the film. I've loved Pierce Brosnan since his 'Manion' and 'Remington Steele' days, but Steve McQueen is in a different league altogether. While Pierce is suave and elegant, Steve has that rugged masculinity that shows vulnerability such as in the chess scene. Terrific acting by both Faye and Steve!
shareI am a fan of Pierce also, with his portrayals of Remington Steele and James Bond. And the chess game is sexier to me also.

I recall instantly the chess scene from the original.I'm not a great fan of the movie, but credit given, where credit's due. This was the first movie I'm ever aware of that went out of its way to make chess sexy.🐭 share
