There are so many things we like in movies; the soundtrack is often one of those - the perfect song in the precise moment. Our two favourite songs in Richard Linklater's Boyhood (2014) are "Hero", by Family of the Year, and "Deep Blue", by Arcade Fire. Listen to both songs and find the chess reference. Question 15 was about a chess match in Ingmar Bergman's The Seventh Seal (1957), namely Death vs Antonius Block.
What's the chess match reference in either "Hero" or "Deep Blue"?
Name both players (e.g. Death vs Antonius Block).
The first student to get the correct answer will score 7 points; the second one will score 5 points; the third one will score 3 points; all other students with correct answers will score 1 point.
You have 48 hours to answer the question.
