Crime and Punishment ( French: Crime et Châtiment) is a 1956 French crime film based on the eponymous 1866 novel by Fyodor Dostoyevsky.
Proud of his position in society and of his intelligence, René Brunel believes that bourgeois notions of morality do no apply to him. To prove his point he murders an old woman in cold blood.
