- Trivia1950's blonde bombshell Gloria Pall has a small part in the beginning of the movie playing a peasant girl being held down on the couch as Fyodor Karamazov tickles her feet with a feather. She was cast after an audition that consisted entirely of being tickled on her feet by an assistant. She beat out 11 other actresses who were tested the same way because she was the most ticklish.

- Quotes
Smerdjakov: If you'll permit a comment, sir, you're not at all like your brother Dmitri.
Ivan Karamazov: Half-brother.
Smerdjakov: You're different from all of them. I could see that the first minute you arrived yesterday. Intelligence, audacity, cleverness...
Ivan Karamazov: You've just never met anyone who lives in Moscow.
Smerdjakov: No sir, it's those magazine articles you wrote, the ones about crime.
Ivan Karamazov: [pauses] You enjoyed them.
Smerdjakov: [takes out a magazine clipping, reads it] There is nothing in the world to make man love their neighbors. If there is no God, then nothing can be immoral. Everything becomes lawful, even crime. Crime becomes not only lawful, but inevitable.
