(1959) is an American feature film, directed by Denis Sanders, and is— as the New York Times put it, “a beat generation version”[1][2]—of the novel Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoyevsky. The film was released on November 1, 1959, is 96 minutes in length, and shot in black-and-white. In addition to making some changes in the plot and characterizations, it sets the tale, not in 19th-century Russia, but in mid-20th-century Los Angeles. The script was written by Walter Newman, and stars George Hamilton, in his first screen role,[3] as “Robert Cole,” the character based on Raskolnikov, the protagonist of the Russian novel. Cast
ProductionAccording to Hamilton, director Denis Sanders "saw his project as a tragedy for the Beat Generation" and cast Hamilton because of his similarity to Tony Perkins.[4] The film was completed early in 1958 but took over a year to be released.[4] ReceptionIn his review in The New Republic, Stanley Kauffmann commented that “modern versions of classics are generally more clever than convincing because the very term ‘classic’ means a timeless work . . . that need not be transplanted.”[5] Nonetheless, he continued, “by reason of its attendant skills and an innocent, unpretentious earnestness of address," Crime and Punishment U.S.A. "is a moderately interesting attempt to state the material of a vast symphony with a small jazz combination.” Roger Corman later said the film "lost me a lot of money."[6]See also
