Adventure at its boldest! Bogart at his best! Europe, the Mediterranean, Africa -- This Was Their Road to Adventure and a Fabulous Fortune -- A Dangerous Band of Desperate Men Goaded on By Two Beautiful Women -- All of Them Out to Beat the Devil at His Own Game. Huston and Bogart, who had previously collaborated on classics ranging from The Maltese Falcon to The African Queen, teamed up for the last time on Beat the Devil, the least known and most unfairly underrated of their five joint efforts. An exquisitely dry comedy with a witty script by Truman Capote and John Huston, the film finds subtle, absurdist laughs in the misadventures of Bogart's tough customer, who becomes involved in a complex scheme to gain control of a patch of uranium-rich land in Africa. Directed by John Huston. Screenplay Truman Capote and John Huston.
