Elizabeth Kisdon Dmitri Robert Allen Grilov Douglass Dumbnlle Lushin • Gene Lockhart Pawnbroker . . Mrs. Patrick Campbell AUCKLAND STAR, 18/4/36, says:— "The filming of great world classics is one of the pleasantest and most welcome trends of the talkies to-day. In 'Crime and Punishment' the Majestic has secured for display one of the greatest dramas of modern times, and one which has a universal appeal. Commencing at the Majestic last evening, the film, which is based on Dostoievsky's immortal novel, is not to be confused with those of the 'gangster' or 'crime' type. In fact, the only quarrel one can pick with the picture is the choice of name, for. although, paradoxically enough, it is the author's own, it tends to convey the wrong impression. . . . Very excellent sujjporta include a coloured 'Barney Google' cartoon. An item of great interest to New Zealanders is n portion of the newsreel showing the christening of the new transtasman vessel Awatea by Lady Bledialoe." N.Z. HERALD, 18/4/3G, says:—. "Few pictures have such a dramatic intensity as Columbia's 'Crime and Punishment,' which opened a season at the Majestic Theatre yesterday. Based on the novel by Dostoievsky, it is a tale which, in ordinary hands, might have suffered greatly in a screen interpretation, but the producer. Josef von Sternberg, has used his utmost skill and created a film masterpiece. It does not concern itself with brutality and ruthlessness, as the name might suggest, but rather deals with the human emotions and their reactions to a series of dramatic events."
