A morality tale for the ages émigré Hollywood director William Dieterle’s The Devil & Daniel Webster (aka All That Money Can Buy) combines European expressionism with quintessential Americana. Based on a short story by celebrated author Stephen Vincent Benét it offers a study in life liberty & the pursuit of happiness in which patriotism is cast in dramatic conflict with servitude to greed & materialism. Echoing the German legend of Faust down-on-his-luck farmer Jabez Stone (James Craig) makes an existential pact with the devil – seven years of prosperity in return for his soul. When the devil incarnate Mr. Scratch (Walter Huston) comes a-calling Stone begins to have second thoughts enlisting famed orator & folk hero Daniel Webster (Edward Arnold) to fight what becomes for each of them a case of life & death.

The Masters of Cinema Series is proud to present Dieterle’s film for the very first time on home video in the UK. ...
