      If Beat the Devil puzzled audiences on its first release, it has charmed them since. ( Read More )
    • Jason Bailey

      There is a sense, in every scene, of Capote and Huston tearing up that script and starting over an air of improvisation thats freeing, to say nothing of unique in the era. ( Read More )
    • Dennis Schwartz

      It looks like its going to be a riot, but turns out almost laugh free. ( Read More )
    • Eric Monder

      A clever if confusing spoof of the genre pictures Huston had made in a more serious manner in previous years ( Read More )
    • Dave Kehr

      he film ranges from the diffident to the grotesque, with Huston selecting his lenses to make the performers look as freakish as possible. ( Read More )
