Griffith silent romantic love triangle melodrama ("Satan, flung from Heaven, brings Temptation to the World!"; "A strictly modern drama of love, temptation, thrills and regeneration stupendously conceived!"; based on the story "By Marie Corelli"; about a man who has little success, and who blames God for his misfortune, and the Devil appears as dapper Adolphe Menjou, and offers him unlimited success if he will follow the Devil's commands, and he makes the bargain, and becomes hugely successful, but must marry the woman the Devil chooses for him, even though he still loves his former sweetheart, and at the climax of the movie, he completely rejects the Devil and is allowed to end the bargain, presumably with God's help!) starring Adolphe Menjou ("as Satan"), Ricardo Cortez, Lya De Putti, Carol Dempster, Ivan Lebedeff, and Marcia Harris. Note that this movie was based on the 1895 novel of the same name by Marie Corelli, which was of course loosely based on the German legend "Faust", with a man selling his soul to the Devil (and many stories and movies have used the same theme, including "All That Money Can Buy", with Walter Huston as The Devil).
