Closing Gambit: Documentary on the 1978 match[edit]

Closing Gambit: 1978 Korchnoi versus Karpov and the Kremlin is a documentary on the match released / in the process of being released in 2018. There is a review by Chess historian Olimpiu G. Urcan which includes Raymond Keene's recounting of suggestions from FIDE president Max Euwe to call off the match at 5-5, after Viktor Korchnoi had won 3 of the last four games, that he kept this suggestion from Korchnoi and declined it as the head of Korchnoi's delegation.
