""Crime and Punishment"
1935
Directed by Pierre Chenal

"Two of the greatest actors, Harry Baur and Pierre Blanchar, and the master of French poetic realism, Pierre Chenal, join in this masterful adaptation of one of the great works of literature. Hailed worldwide as one of the most imaginative adaptations of Dostoevsky's complex, brooding novel, "Chenal's studio-bound stylization and direction created a feverish climate of airless oppression and suspense. And Blanchar's cat-and-mouse confrontation with the magnificent Harry Baur, as the wily magistrate Porfiry, is one of the great acting setpieces of the French screen" (National Film Theatre). French with English subtitles.
110 minutes."
