(...) It’s interesting that both Woody Allen and Aki Kaurismäki should be so drawn to Fyodor Dostoevsky’s classic novel Crime and Punishment. Both directors are clearly fascinated by the underlying absurdity of the novel’s view of the human condition and find the only means of expressing it is either through comedy or tragedy. While Allen has tried both approaches in his loose adaptations of Dostoevsky’s novel in Crimes and Misdemeanors and, less successfully, in Match Point, Kaurismäki – in his first feature film – already shows a propensity for a more direct approach, while at the same time managing to imprint an essential Finnish character on the work.
Kaurismäki’s directness in depicting the nature of his Raskolnikov, called here Rahikainen, extends to the workplace – a slaughterhouse where the man coldly strips dead carcasses and bisects a bug that has found his way onto his chopping block. With a similar lack of emotion and no apparent motive, Rahikainen (Markku Toikka) walks into the apartment of a rich businessman and shoots him dead. His crime is witnessed by a girl from a catering firm, Eeva (Aino Seppo), but when the police question Rahikainen about the murder, she doesn’t give him away. As the police try to find evidence that points to his involvement, Rahikainen plays a cat and mouse game with the inspector (Esko Nikkari), flirting with being caught, but at the same time not wanting to be held to account for an action he doesn’t believe was wrong.
The motivation may have changed in Kaurismäki’s version of Crime and Punishment, but the complexity of the psychology of the killer remains essentially the same, since the substance of the story is ironically not about the crime nor the punishment, but a consideration of the individual’s place in society and notions of guilt. When he fails to accept the morality, laws and rules that society demands he must adhere to - not so much through a sense of moral superiority as much as through a different conditioning influenced by his own life experiences and perhaps his working environment (the factors are innumerable and their impact unquantifiable, which is where the fascination of the story lies) – he thus finds himself in an intolerable and very lonely position.
The situation is mirrored and complicated to some extent with Eeva, who also behaves according to her own sense of duty. When combined, such forces can pose a serious threat to the foundations that society is built upon - “If people were sent to prison for their thoughts or words, your prisons would be full in no time”, Rahikainen tells the police inspector. That Kaurismäki manages to convey the full import of the story in relatively few words and with minimal expression is remarkable, but then that is not at all uncharacteristic for this director.
