There is no movie version of Kawabata’s go book but there is a movie called “The Go Masters”, which is what I had in mind - I saw it in 1983 or so.

I remembered that there was a wider (geo)political conflict in Kawabata’s work and “some readers consider it a symbolic parallel to the defeat of Japan in World War II, an event which affected Kawabata deeply.” Tell J this is what I was vaguely refering to at Matchless.

That’s all.
