In Reply to: Victor, in your praise of Crime and Punishment (1969), you don't posted by tinear on July 1, 2006 at 15:19:16:

I suspect you are way ahead of me on this one. I saw the film when it came out in 1969, and I most likely was not aware of this element. My memory locked in many other things, most importantly the Smoktunovsky's performance (in my mind absolutely superb... and you have to absorb his voice and speech manner) and to a somewhat lesser extent Taratorkin's. Plus the whole atmosphere that was I thought presented extremely well, especially as it was filmed on the familiar locations.

If you could point me in the direction of one such review I would be curious.
