"Beat the Devil" is a British film, directed by John Huston, starring Humphrey Bogart, Jennifer Jones and Gina Lollobrigida and featuring Robert Morley, Peter Lorre and Bernard Lee. Huston and Truman Capote wrote the screenplay, loosely based upon a novel of the same name by Claud Cockburn, writing under the pseudonym James Helvick.

The script, written on a day-to-day basis as the film was shot, concerns the adventures of a motley crew of swindlers and ne'er-do-wells trying to claim land rich in uranium deposits in Kenya as they wait in a small Italian port to travel aboard a tramp steamer en route to Mombasa.
