I 9 r Y mice YM to Present Classic Russian Drama Tonight "Crime and Punishment," a French language film of the great Russian novel to be presented by the YM tonight at 8 p. m. in the Temple Theater, is a drama of a man's four-fold personality, pro duced in a 19th century St. Pet ersburg setting. The central character, Raskolni kov, is a sensitive student at the outset, happy and confident. With changing economic conditions and as a neurosis develops within him, he lives as a half-starved in tellectual. Now a psychopath, he leads a twisted existence patterned after that of Napoleon, his hero. As the story progresses to the last phase of his life he becomes a child-like martyr, radiant in re demption. In the same year that Pierre Chenal's French version of the classic Dostoyevsky novel wa produced, Hollywood released its version. Comparing the two ver sions, Helen Mary Hayes of the Lincoln Journal writes, "This critic remembers not one person in the American cast, or anything else about the picture except the slicknes of the settings and prop erties. Probably nobody who saw French version has forgotten wi aiici u tilling ui liic lute iidi i y Bauer as the police commission er."
