The Idiot will Live, will love!




Video with Evgeniy Mironov dedicated to the memory of Dostoevsky


I am polish and The Idiot is the best book ;movie I've ever seen.Dostoyevsky is a master of whom russian people should be proud forever.

The thing about Mishikin, is that he has very keen understanding about people, but is struggling with the concept of love, because he wants to understand it, instead of feeling it. That, in my opinion, makes him an idiot. Love means sometimes respecting your limits and accept that you have to walk away and let go. He doesn't. Runs into the same problem all the time. Hence, while he means well, he is ultimately misguided.
  • Dostoevsky is just amazing, I can't believe anyone could write like that.... and how lucky I am to read it ! :)
  • I feel so bad, because almost all comments are in english, not that many russians really read Dostoevskiy....dont think i am russian, just writing english so all understand....Dostoevskiy is the best writer in the world, and Idiot it is his best book !
  • Dostoevsky is pure genius (a pity he suffered from this dislike for Polish people, but no earhly man is perfect) and thanks to God, we have Bortko, Mironov and other great actors
  • "Do not deceive yourselves. If any of you thinks he is wise by the standards of this age, he should become a fool so that he may become wise."
