“Bryan Ku is a graphic design student in California who recreated the 2008 Wimbledon final between Nadal and Federer in paper form. The video flips back and forth between two hands holding notebook pages that show where the ball was hit and what the score was. Combined with actual player/game noises and crowd cheering, it’s such a clever final product. Just click play above to...

The show veers off track from the storylines of the book, but typically stay interesting. However, number of people I’ve spoken with say that where the show is weakest is where it strays from Harris’ storytelling. To HBO & Alan...
