The Idiot

Italian televison adaptation of Fyodor Dostoevsky's novel of the same name. Although it is to all intents and purposes a television miniseries, the rhythm of the acting is typically theatrical: the long dialogues, the acting style and the actorly interpretation make it a true example of episodic television theatre.

This production, originally released in 1959, has captivated audiences with its unique storytelling. As a Miniseries series, it brings a fresh perspective to the Drama genre, maintaining a strong viewer rating of 6.5 across its 1 season.
