Yul Brynner and William Shatner are Brothers, K?

Okay, so I've discovered--

and you probably already knew this, but it was a genuine revelation to me--

The pulpy cover for The Brothers Karamazov that I posted:




is actually a movie tie-in cover for a 1958 film of the novel.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Brothers_Karamazov_(1958_film)

...I had joked about the woman on the cover being Doris Day, and then said "Why is Yul Brynner in this photo?" and then thought "But it really does look like Yul Brynner" and then "well, he was Russian, so,"

and, lo, I Googled to find that this actually IS Yul Brynner. Doris Day is Maria Schell, though.

Brynner plays Dmitri and WILLIAM SHATNER plays Alexey.

Here's a trailer.
