Chess In Movies: Flyboys

I saw the movie Flyboys recently, and I spotted a Chess set, being played. A number of them in fact, and a number of times during the film.

The Chess sets have tall pieces and are somewhat fancier than the usual Staunton design. The movie takes place back in the World War years, and this might have been the way they were commonly designed.

Anyway, I thought it was interesting to see Chess show up in a war movie but there it was. Chess fan? Check out this film!
