French adaptation of Fyodor Dostoevsky's famous novel Crime and Punishment. Even if it's French, they kind of go with the heavy Russian feel, along with a touch of German expressionism to get the dark message of murder and guilt across as best they could. Becomes more traditional once the mind games start with Harry Baur almost hamming it up (not necessary in a bad way, but the mood changes drastically, which I'm not sure suited this version of the story). Definitely stronger the first half.
