I've always wondered what GMs sound like and so far I've seen videos of Topalov, Kasparov and Susan Polgar and they all have interesting accents =P. I was wondering if anyone knows where to get video interviews of, say, Anand or Kramnik or anyone else in the top 10?

try going to uschess.org And go to the "Shop" link at the top of the web page click it and on the left hand side close to the top of the page there will be a search bar where you can type in what you want to find.

P.S. where did you see those videos?!?

Links to videos of Kasparov and Topalov (I saw them on chessbase don't know if they're still working):

Kasparov on his retirement: http://chessbase.com/newsdetail.asp?newsid=2258

Also, Korchnoi has two videos out, narrating some of the best games of his career.

Which I have just ordered, not two minutes ago. 😉

Now that you've had some time to explore the DVD's properly, do you still give them the thumbs up, mate? (err..buddy)

Yea, I did talk about it on a previous post, Dyl. Just go back three pages or so of threads, under Korchnoi Dvd. I'm glad somebody did it for posterity, since you can't say how long Korchnoi will be with us. Can you imagine if Fischer had done some DVD's of his best games? Unfortunately, we have precious little of him in action, due in part to his secretive nature. What about movies of Morphy, Steinitz, Lasker, ah, we can only sigh.

I read your review when you posted it, mate. Thank you. 😉


I was actually probing for more thoughts on the DVD's. I can still cancel my order...
