Join us for a special one night only presentation of The Devil and Daniel Webster, part of our ongoing Civics and Cinema series.
 
The Devil and Daniel Webster (originally released as All That Money Can Buy) is a 1941 American supernatural horror film directed by William Dieterle and starring Edward Arnold, Walter Huston, James Craig, and Simone Simon. Based on the 1938 play adaptation of Stephen Vincent Benét’s 1936 short story “The Devil and Daniel Webster”, the film deals with the theme of the deal with the Devil: A farmer sells his soul for good luck and prosperity, but becomes desperate when the time of his pact is about to end.

Stick around after the screening for a discussion about the film led by Sam Scinta and Rick Kyte from Viterbo University!
