This acclaimed BBC adaptation of Crime and Punishment remains faithful to Fyodor Dostoevsky's classic novel. • • Set in St Petersburg in the second half of the 19th century, the psychological thriller tells of a desperate young murderer caught in a web of his own guilt. • • Rodya Raskolnikov (John Simm) is a poverty-stricken student living among the fetid alleyways and crumbling tenements of St Petersburg. Intense and highly intelligent, Raskolnikov believes he is among a class of men destined for greatness and as such is permitted to breach 'normal' moral values. • • He decides to test his courage and integrity by killing a pawnbroker, a mean old woman whom he is sure nobody will miss. The murder, however, only serves to draw Raskolnikov into a nightmare world in which he is dogged by guilt, paranoia and alienation. • • Faced with the wily investigator Porfiry, who sets up a complex series of traps, encounters and onversations, can Raskolnikov escape his own conscience or the seemingly inevitable punishment? • • Simm's Raskolnikov is a truly startling, genuinely mature performance --The Guardian • • RTS awards (2002), winner: Best Production Design, Best Costume Design, Best Tape and Film Editing. • • John Simm Society Website: • http://www.johnsimmsociety.com • • John Simm Society on Facebook: • / actorjohnsimm • • John Simm Society on Twitter: • / johnsimmsociety • • John Simm Society on YouTube: • / johnsimmsociety • • BBC | Drama | Crime and Punishment website: http://www.bbc.co.uk/drama/crimeandpu... • ~
