Default "Searching For Bobby Fischer" game

White: Ke6, Re5, Bg5, Ne4, Pf6, Ph4
Black: Kc2, Rc7, Bd8, Nb6, Pa7, Pg7
Black to move.

1...gxf6 2.Bxf6? (2.Nxf6 should draw) 2...Bxf6 3.Nxf6 (3.Kxf6? Nd7+)
3...Rc6+ 4.Kf7 Rxf6+! 5.Kxf6 Nd7 6.Ke6 Nxe5 7.Kxe5 a5 8.h5 a4 9.h6 a3

10.h7
a2 11.h8=Q a1=Q+ and 12...Qxh8 wins the Queen and the game. 0-1
In the real game in 1986, the game was a draw in Sarwer-Waitzkin as all

the
pieces and pawns were traded, leaving just lone kings. The opening was a
King's Indian, Saemisch variation.

However I read this on the Internet so it might be rubbish

In the movie "Searching For Bobby Fischer" one of the last scenes
has Josh playing a game with Black against his opponent Johnathon
Poe. This is the game for the (?) championship. Josh goes on to
win from the crucial position in about a dozen moves.
Was this a replay of one of Josh's actual games? It so, where can
I get that game? If not, can someone please post the position and
subsequent moves leading to Josh's "Queening with check" to win
that game. Any info is appreciated.


A little dramatic liscense is being used, to create both a dramatically
interesting game and one that the non-chessplaying audience can
understand.

Josh did find himself in a bad spot in the final game, if I remember
the book correctly (it's been a while) but I think he found a miracle
draw in a pawn-down, apparantly lost endgame.

If you do a database search, his opponent's names was Jeff Sarwer in
real life.
