Simone Simon's lustful succubus and Walter Huston's grinning demon huckster seduce a New England farmer. Originally released in 1941, The Devil and Daniel Webster was re-released in a much shorter version in 1952. After discovering a complete print in 1990, This release was digitally transferred, fully restored, and the print was retimed shot by shot, adding over 20 minutes of footage from the original 1941 release.

"The disc's commentary is expert; Devil now stands as one of Hollywood's premier achievements of the 1940s." -Mike Clark, USA Today

The Criterion edition offers the only complete version of the film and features audio comment\ ary by film historian Bruce Eder.
